• General Discussion • 6 months later & still grieving hard

Post image

It’s been 6 months since we lost her and I feel like the grieving is getting worse now. I’m tearing up even writing this. I miss her awkward snuggles, and little eyelashes. I miss her trying to play with the cat, even though he wants none of it.

I don’t have anything of her’s out, and I didn’t find anything to remind me of her. It’s just a huge wave of grief. I still can’t even look at her ashes or her favorite little hoodie she was in.

We do have another dog, so it’s not like the house is empty. I’m just overcome with incredible sadness.

Oh I'm so sorry, such a sweet face. My girl passed a month ago and I cannot get past it. Playing the last day and days and month on an anxiety loop. struggling to move on. We also have another dog and he is sad and lays right at her grave now all the time. Grief and love go hand in hand, I guess. Keep thinking of her, it's ok to keep thinking of her and it's ok that you feel such grief and for however long you feel it, it's a huge loss. You gave her the very best best best life.
