A Letter To My Lucy.

Carolly · Post by **Carolly** » Wed Feb 13, 2008 1:39 pm

My Dear Little Lucy......you have left me now and no words can tell you how much I am hurting.The tears wont stop and all I want to do is just see that funny little face again looking at me as if to say.......Mum give us a cuddle.I know some may say you were only a little dog but no my special one u were so much more.I bought you just as some breeders turned up......you were so small having babies could have killed you.All through the years we had together you were so loyal.......so loving and so funny at times. Everyone knew lucylulu as you became known as.You didn't like Ziggy the yorkie I rescued at all.She passed away just a few weeks ago at a good age just like you and losing you both in the short time has hit me hard.I have to say though that you were my number one although I hope the other dogs never saw that.When I laid in bed a few years ago unable to move at all for 6 months you never left my side.........in all weathers you were with me.My lap was your own little bed and my dinner was yours.I used to think of this day when you would leave me and didn't know what I would do.I can hear some people shouting reading this......fgs woman it was only a dog..........and to some yes I guess thats true.But my little one to me you meant so much to me.You are in that far away magic land now and can hurt no more. You never knew me at the end and that broke my heart.Im trying so hard to stop these tears I really am.................but I just cant.I know time heals and I have to let you go so my little one......my special little girl.......you go with all the love you so deserve.......you were one special little maltese ye know Lucy and I am so grateful you came into my life.Goodbye my little one..............I will always love you x

I'm so, so sorry.

Lucy is your angel watching over you now, and she's young again,

and healthy, and running around heaven with all the others.

I do know what it's like losing them. It hurts so much you think

you won't be able to stand it.

R.I.P. Lucy, you were very loved.

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.

There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.

There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.

The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

The Last Battle

If it should be that I grow frail and weak

And pain should keep me from my sleep,

Then will you do what must be done,

For this -- the last battle -- can't be won.

You will be sad I understand,

But don't let grief then stay your hand,

For on this day, more than the rest,

Your love and friendship must stand the test.

We have had so many happy years,

You wouldn't want me to suffer so.

When the time comes, please, let me go.

Take me to where to my needs they'll tend,

Only, stay with me till the end

And hold me firm and speak to me

Until my eyes no longer see.

I know in time you will agree

It is a kindness you do to me.

Although my tail its last has waved,

From pain and suffering I have been saved.

Don't grieve that it must be you

Who has to decide this thing to do;

We've been so close -- we two -- these years,

Don't let your heart hold any tears.................God those words get to me.

Just popped back to say a big thankyou to someone who has just emailed me. Good to know your there my Friend and thankyou for these words you sent.Your one special person.x

One last word of farewell, dear master and mistress. Whenever you visit my grave, say to yourselves with regret but also happiness in your hearts at the remembrance of my long happy life with you: "Here lies one who loves us and whom we loved." No matter how deep my sleep I shall hear you, and not all the power of death can keep my spirit from wagging a grateful tail
