Brevard Project 365 – Day 343

… picked up Lucas’ ashes today at Brevard Animal Hospital… I thought I was ready, but I guess I wasn’t… been crying all afternoon all over again, and I can’t bring myself to look in the bag… eventually I want to sprinkle his ashes up on the hill in the back of the house…  :-(

  1. I am So sorry Ann!! It is truely one of life’s hardest things to lose a dear pet. Keep those good memories in your mind and stay busy(which I know is not hard for you). And love on that cute Louie!!
    When I get there maybe we can go for a final walk in the forest with Lucas and Marley?…if you are ready!
    Until then, Keep that pretty smile on!!

  2. Anne, sorry for your loss. The Rainbow Bridge Poem seems to help me.

    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….
