    Default When will the drama ever stop ?

    I came home from a wonderful 6 hour Bikram posture clinic feeling good as hell.
    And looking at the bullshit I've been through, thinking to myself how lucky I am just to be alive ! I was really proud of myself for being a fighter. Then I drive down my block to find my step-father consoling my niece. I get out of my car to see what's going on and I find out my little baby Prince has died !! My nephew left the door opened,he ran out behind Midnite my niece's dog and was hit by a car !!
    He was so little, I can only imagined what he looks like now.
    He was such a beautiful little red toy poodle and he only weighed 4 lbs.,thats him in my avatar.
    I just don't know what to do without my little boy ! I don't have children of my own and he was like my little baby.
    He helped me make it through cancer and all the other drama that's happened. OMG !
    My new love...is me !

    Wow, I am so sorry for your loss. Pets really are family.
    God, grant me the senility, to forget the people I never liked anyway,
    The good fortune to run into the ones that I do,
    And the eyesight to know the difference.

    Sweetheart...I'm so sorry. There is nothing that can be said. Our animals ARE our family--our chosen family, just like our best human friends.

    Take it from me Farrah, please. Fuck being focused!

    Actually, do be focused.... on your grief

    It sounds like you had the same sort of bond with this animal as I experienced with Bibs. I'm going to be honest with you --- it is hard. It has been three weeks now for me and I still have moments where I just have to stop and let it all out in whatever way.



    You have my condolences. I was very public with my grief in re Bibs so I can understand. You are not alone.

    Now I need a hug. Damnit. I'm teary tonight!

    Just finished watching Grey's Anatomy where George's father was "let go" and all my memories of Bibs and that fateful day on May 2nd has come flooding back.... this is what I mean by moments. I was fine and have been okay... and that scene just hit a little too close to home in a way.

    After all you've been through during these years, I agree with GCG that if you have to lose yourself (aka let yourself go without worrying about "plowing ahead" immediately, so to speak) in this grief, then so be it. Surviving cancer, dealing with an insane mother, maintaining custody of your sister's kids, etc., is a testament to your strength. So, you will get through this, but it sucks. You're correct that you've gotten more than your share of drama to contend with. Take a few days and grieve in the manner that you must, and I hope you find some peace. Best wishes.

    I read your post this morning before going to Bikram. What you wrote really touched me and I took it all to heart. I know you're in the same place I am in right now. So your advice means a lot.

    I was able to let out a lot of emotions in class. Somewhere in one of the postures I got the urge to pee, when I made it to the bathroom I ending up balling my eyes out. I was in there for a good 5 minutes or so. The studio is small & I'm sure everyone heard me 'cause they all looked up when I entered the room, normally we're all focused on postures.
    But who cares, I've decided to own my grief.

    I can't hug you in reality but, I hope this cyber hug helps.
    My new love...is me !

    Yeah, my mom was up to her bullshit again yesterday. I went completely off the deep end with her. I must say I proud of myself for doing it. But, that didn't stop he from calling me nonstop.
    She even had the nerve to say that my having Prince cremated wasn't fair to her.. (WTF ! It's like lady the world doesn't revolve around you !)
    I just hung up the phone on her.

    Anyway, thanks for your input. It means a great deal to me.
    My new love...is me !

    For me in my grief and especially in the initial 'fresh' stages of my grief just the thought... the "words" on this computer screen coming from other people who had taken the time out of their day to type those few words meant everything to me. It was "the thought" that helped and counted for me. It allowed to feel supported and not alone in my grief.

    Crying is very healthy and healing for you. Just remember to try to replace those salts that you have lost thru crying.... I did so by keeping a glass of salted water near-by or have some salt (as I don't usually add salt to anything I eat) on whatever I'm eating.

    You will have moments where it will be over-whelming... oh boy I did! I had days go by which just weren't happy.

    The whole "dead" mood in my avatar thingy ... it was because at one moment in my grief... I was missing her so much that I felt "dead"... I didn't feel alive.

    The Bik. Yoga seems to be helping HEAPS ... I'm starting to think I should do some Yoga as well to help me get thru the grief as it is still lingering as it feels like it has only partial healed this wound.

    All I know is I just wanted to share that I can understand and you have my empathy...

    You'll actually find other people are more understanding than you realise (I know I did!) in re going thru grief due to the loss of a beloved animal companion.
