Lost my childhood dog after nearly 15 years together
i lost my childhood dog a few days ago I just feel absolutely miserable. She was nearly 15 years old, and I know I should be happy she made it so long, but I just keep breaking down thinking about all of the milestones she was there for. She’s been there for everything in my life and now she won’t be anymore and it just feels wrong.
It hurts even more because I’ve experienced a lot of loss in my life, including losing a parent. But my dog has always been there for me since I got her. Idk. Just struggling.
@convivialZebra8368 You can be happy about the time you both got to spend together and be sad about the loss<3 Feeling one or the other won't make any of it wrong. 15 years, so many memories, it's not easy to process it all so soon. Take your time<3
The ones we love cannot be just gone, we have them with us forever in our heart and I like to believe that we stay in theirs as well.
Unconditional love is like a string that connects those sharing it, this string doesn't break, it just gets extended. You've got a guardian angel now, looking over you from heaven.
