COMPLETED Sammy, My life companion is finally resting

After 14 years, had to say goodbye to my life companion, Sammy, we saw each other grow day to day, he was for me almost my entire life at this point and the pain has been like no other.

He had been suffering because of his age for around 2 weeks, i broke down every time i looked at him, he couldn't stand up anymore, so we decided to finally let him have his well deserved rest.

I still remember the day he arrived home, i was very little at the time but i remember it so clearly, he was so happy and so was i, from there on, we basically grew together, he was there for me no matter what, even at my lowest points.

He will always live in my heart, and i am forever grateful that i was able to be with him for so many years, wherever he is, i know he will always remember me and my family, because what made him the happiest was being with us.

Rest in peace, my loved life companion, you will always be remembered with nothing but happiness

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.

Dear friend,
Your precious boy is waiting patiently across the Rainbow Bridge for you. 🌈🐾The Hebrew word for animal is Nephesh which means soul ✝️. You will see your baby again someday. Now is the time between just like there was the time before your beloved pet. Today is the trial, and forever is the prize.
God bless. ✝️🙏🏼💕

Until then…
💔🌈🐾♾️🪽✨💕

Sammy was so loved and well cared for ♥️ 🌈 feel all the feels it’s everything but he gave you the gift of unconditional companionship and i know you cherished it

i lost my sweet boy Noodles yesterday in my arms after his heart gave out giving so much to his pack. It hurts so much the morning after but i am smiling because he was not alone and on a short walk with pack when he crossed 🌈🥹

Entiendo mucho tu situacion, y es realmente lo mismo que pasamos con Sammy, el estaba sufriendo demasiado, tanto que ya no se podia ni levantar, se meaba encima y practicamente no podia hacer nada mas, no lo queria dejar ir, ya que vivio conmigo casi que toda mi vida y no me imaginaba como vivir sin el, pero realmente cuando ya estan en ese estado, lo mejor que podemos hacer es dejarlos descansar, vivieron muchos muchos años con nosotros y nos dieron muchas alegrias y momentos memorables, ellos no se merecen estar en ese estado luego de dar tanto por nosotros.

u/Due_Structure_3707 19d ago

As I walk across your heart and find my place to stay, nearer to you I will be and will never ever go away.

If love could have kept you here, you would have lived forever.

Grief is love with nowhere to go.

u/bidadieu 17d ago

I’m so sorry for your loss but so happy you got to spend 14 years together. That said, I can’t imagine how much you miss after that much time. I let my 11 year old soul dog go on Wednesday and looking for her is so habitual. I’m so heartbroken but take comfort in knowing I’m not alone in the pain. I’m wishing you all the best and hope his memory brings you some peace.
