Today marks the two month milestone of when I had to let Lupe go. Still experiencing the ups and downs of it all...but that's what I expected.
I posted on my blog about this but it isn't showing up on the blog roll so I thought I would add a post on the forum with a link...there is a story about a strange experience I had last week regarding her.

Not a day goes by when I don't smile and cry when I think about her. She was truly the reason I got out of bed in the morning for almost 15 years...when she had to go, she had to go
. I am so thankful for all of the support that I have found here, what an amazing community.
To my sweet angel, miss you more than ever thought was possible...be well my sweet stinkerdoodle.

Diagnosed with possible synovial cell sarcoma of right front elbow 5/31/12. Amputation surgery performed 6/7/12. Final diagnosis of histiocytic cell sarcoma 6/11/12. Her soul and spirit were strong, her body was not...my little girl earned her wings 6/14/12.

Isn't it odd how two months can seem like a lifetime or just yesterday. I'm glad you are able to smile through the tears. I hope you are still doing your volunteer work with the rescues, you have so much to give these animals.
Harley is an 8 year old Golden Retriever. Amp surgery for an infiltrative lipoma canceled due to two masses in chest. A rescue, he found his forever home on 3/18/07 and left for his eternal home on 1/09/13. His story and medical history are at http://myharley.....pawds.com/

It's been over three years since I went on to the Rainbow Bridge, and my peeps still have ups and downs but our sweet memories always remind them to turn their frowns upside down!
Thanks for checking in.

It's still so hard at the 2 months mark. It does get better, but very slowly!

Magnum: 30th May 2002 to 5th May 2012. Lost her back left leg to osteosarcoma on 5th Sep 2011. Lung mets found on 20th Mar 2012 but it was bone mets in the hip that ended her brave battle. Magnum's motto - "Dream as if you'll live for ever, live as if you'll die today" (James Dean). Loyal, loving, courageous and spirited to the end. My beloved heart dog, see her memoirs from Rainbow Bridge ...... http://princess.....pawds.com/
These anniversaries are so tough. I am exactly one week behind you, and it sounds like we are in a similar place in terms of grief - smiles and tears every day. Kathy is right - it's crazy how it can feel like forever ago and at the same time like no time has passed.
Take care of yourself,
Alex
