There nothing like she was . I got her at the pound in kailua kona she was going to get put down.
There are no resources up here for help I’m struggling to get thru this , The home i’m building i can’t even go over there i felt like i could had spent time with her in the meantime she was with me but i’ve been cleaning up after construction crew that time lost with her , She had no signs of a problem except sleeping a lot , I took her out of my car she collapsed is at with her for about 10 minutes then got her in the house the vets say she had a rare heart tumor with fluid leaking and didn’t want drain it saying it would happen again so she was put down , I’m second guessing myself and feel like i should had given her another chance . Any words of wisdom to help me thru this no groups nothing in big bear . after my house is finished i have to sell it not liking it here , Hope i get over this Terri Ahia
Hi Terri, so sorry to hear about losing your favorite pet friend. It’s sad losing pets, and I know a few people (including you) that have lost them this year. There really are no words to take away the sting of death; I think it’s okay to lean into grief until it becomes good grief. Ok to lean into stress until it becomes eu-stress, or good stress.
The best you can do is remember your experience with your companion of 15 years. That’s a long-time companion.
