    • About Me

      I am a Registered Nurse,I live in Ohio and love animals and people,nice people!! My 34yr. old cousin passed last year from cardiac death,so unexpected and just 2 weeks ago had to put my beloved dog PJ of 16yrs. to sleep. My heart is broken and My cousins wife has told me about this site for awhile,she finds this helpful so I thought I would check it out. I need all the help I can get at his difficult time.

      From clasik01 November 15

      Thank you for taking the time to make me feel better.That was sweet of you.We're all still so sad & miss Patty a lot but I try to put her last day out of my mind and remember all of the happiness.I realize too, that there is NO good way to say goodbye to our "babies".In a strange way we were spared, but she was not at all & that's worse.I KNOW you did the right thing by your pets.I hope you know you gave them happiness to the end and spared them pain.Make no mistake,that was a humane & wonderful gift to them too.:o).Our pets are our little angels watching over us now. Have a wonderful day & many blessings to you! Love, Connie

      Thank you so much for your support. Today was brutal. I've never had to put a pet to sleep before and today I had to do it twice. That was five hours ago now and I was just able to come home now. The house feels so empty without them. I have two dogs as well, but as you know, each has a different personality. I suppose I'm experiencing the guilt now, as I wish I would have done more. I don't want it to entirely go away, but I would like it to subside. I guess I'm asking for too much too soon. It's going to take some getting used to. One of my cats usually sits by my side whenever I'm at the computer. It's odd not having him there to touch... :(

      From sadinokla September 11

      Thank you so much for your support. I had two other dogs in my life that lived be yond 15 years and each had to be put to sleep at the end of their lives. CeCe died on her own and I have a different feeling. I sort of had guilt over making the decision to euthanize my other two even though there was no choice. But CeCe went on her own and I feel in too short a time. I wasn't ready and hadn't even thought of losing her at this time. I am shocked that she could go from happy to dead in three days. Of course she really was sick, but she never showed it. I guess I just want her back. It is hard to accept reality sometimes. I think another thing is, I know I can never replace her. If I could, I would do it today at any cost. Thank you for reaching out to me, it helps. I am REALLY THANKFUL that I had her in my life.

      I know that I have always had some issues with depression,but more so recently since after loosing my cousin last year at a young age and then having to put my two dogs to sleep this year,one in July and one in August due to old age and poor quality of life. I am happily married,have a wonderful husband but still for some reason feel so blue and empty all the time.
