I can tell you that it's scary no matter how many times you go through it. Each time, I have that same uncertainty and fear, and that fear returned when I was told the news this week about Sam.

Only by being capable of great suffering are we capable of great joy. It's a hard price to pay, but we all choose to pay it when we allow ourselves to love. The love makes life worth living, and the pain of loss bearable. We're all here to help as much as we can by surrounding you with our love. That's what friends do.<br /><br Jed and Abby in MerryLandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00782709825274199133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4905010459077232225.post-46670005354991854452012-04-27T17:47:17.789-06:002012-04-27T17:47:17.789-06:00It will hurt BUT you will let go knowing you tried...It will hurt BUT you will let go knowing you tried - she tried - we tried -<br /><br />You will listen to her -<br /><br />And she'll let you know -<br /><br />But 'til then, KHOFFEE PAWTY ON THE DEKHK!NAK and The Residents of The Khottage Now With KhattleDog!https://www.blogger.com/profile/12341698924927724604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4905010459077232225.post-63055117912470105012012-04-27T17:11:03.941-06:002012-04-27T17:11:03.941-06:00Our dogs are quite healthy and relatively young an...Our dogs are quite healthy and relatively young and yet I share your grief when I think of how our pack (humans and canines) would manage if something horrid happened.

Many of us have some inkling of the fear and pain, and that feeling that one is simply going to implode. Even when one has a healthy and young animal, the knowledge that some day he will be old or could get sick is enough to bring terror. It is the price for that enormous love we share with them.

All I can say is you have handled all of this so bravely and stayed clear headed enough to know you need to enjoy every moment, even the small ones, with your K. You don't take her or the days with her for granted. So if you have to take a moment to be serious and scream at the world, go ahead, get it out, you deserve it.
