The house feels so empty

[dartel]

8 hours since my boy's been gone, and the place feels so empty. I'm still looking to see where he is an how he's doing. Looked towards where he lays before I looked towards the door when Amazon knocked. No taking him out this afternoon. No more filling/checking his food and water bowls. Crying every time I think about him.

This is the first time in 28 years I haven't had an animal in the house.

I am so sorry bud.

So sorry to hear about this. I am with you, and understand your pain.

No one to say good night to. No one to wake up to. Gone is the structure of daily routine he brought.

Aww that sucks, always bites when those special someones in our life pass. You have my sympathises and condolences. *You get supportive hugs from this guy* Would gladly find you a new friend to fill the void. I can not stand to see folks lonely and unhappy.

How did it happened?

Cancer.

3 months to a year

Saw a veterinary oncologist today. It's official, my boy's got cancer in his mouth. Don't know exactly what kind, and probably won't bother doing the biopsy to find out as the cost of treatment won't be doable regardless of what exactly it is. Will probably do some x-rays and cytology on his...

My birthday boy

My boy turned 12 today. You can see how large the cancer in his cheek has grown, it's probably double the size it was a month and a half ago when it was diagnosed. I'm gonna hope he makes it at least another 8 weeks so we reach our adoption anniversary.

12 year anniversary

12 years ago today I brought my boy home. He's made it to our adoption anniversary as I hoped he would, but his cancer's getting really large and he's had some things that have made me concerned. A few times when I come home from work he's not been up and excited like he normally does, just...

I'm so sorry dude, I can't imagine what you're going through right now. But lean on family and friends if you need and remember him for the goods times, he lived a fully and happy life.

I lost my previous girl to cancer of the mouth. Her passing was the first time I'd simply lost control and broke down crying in a long time. My heart is breaking for you, remembering what that pain feels like.

I know the feeling. Noone can say anything that will ease your pain, or fill that gaping hole in your soul. Some say time heals all wounds well dont wana be the party pooper but i lost my last boy 5 y ago and it still hurts. I light a candle for your boy where ever he is i believe he is waiting for u just like my boy.

Oh my gosh, I am super sorry for this, friend; unfortunately, very many of us know the terrible heartsick pain and emptiness that a passing like this causes. And while shorter lifespans mean inevitable periods of grief, we all open our hearts to these little furry friends that we love so much (and love us in return).

You'll never not miss you very special boy, but - if I might encourage you - when you're ready (and I hope it's soon), consider bringing another dog into your house, and letting that energy back into your life. It's not the dog who has passed, and doesn't replace them, but does help heal many wounds, and gives your heart a place to rest as it carries the burden of loss.

I’m so sorry!
I lost three of my boys in 10 months! Two to cancer and one to a neck injury that left him paralyzed. it was one of the worst times of my life. I’m not sure what your belief is but I think their spirit is around us and if you open up to possibility, you will see and feel him!
