My Baby Is Gone....

[Jodi S.]

Rosco was diagnosed with bone cancer on Jan. 2, 2003. We battled this to the bitter end. Changed his diet, took him to a holistic vet, gave him antioxidents, artimissien, everything humanly possible. I went into so much debt that I had to refiance my house. Until the bitter end, we both fought to stay together but the bone cancer made the pain unbearable for my baby and at 8 1/2 years old, I had to let him go. The hardest thing I have ever done. I feel like my heart is wripped out of me. My life is so empty and I can't stop crying. What he gave me, there are no words for. Please say a prayer for my baby and at least he is out of pain. Mine, however has just begun.

Hi Jodi,

I am soooo sorry to hear about your baby boy. I can only imagine the pain you feel. I know that he is in a better place and he will be waiting for you on the other side. I promise you that he doesn't feel anymore pain and that you need our prayers more than him. I will certainly say a prayer for you. I know it's hard but just thank God for the great memories that you have from the last 8 years and be thankful that he was part of your life. Just pray everyday that God will give you the strength to get through this. Just remember that everyone here is here for you and are here if you need to talk. Try to keep your head up.

All my prayers,
Sherri

Jodi,
I am so sorry to hear about your Rosco. Please know in your heart that you did everything right and gave him as much as you could. He is happy and content now and as hard as it was to let him go, you did the most correct thing you could

Cherish the wonderful memories from him, they will grow sweeter with age.

God Bless, you are in our prayers,

Sharon Marples

Hi Jodi--
I remember your posts when you found out...........I'm so sorry you had to deal with this. I'm not one for words at these times, but many of us have stood in your shoes---myself just a month ago---and we truly can say we know how you feel. Maybe my Delilah can show Rosco around in dog heaven........

He will always be beside you.

I've lost two of mine to that horrid disease. My first rottie, Sara Jane, and only a couple months ago, my male doberman, Brandon.

You did all you could for him, and in the end gave him the last gift you could.

I am so sorry. I lost a wonderful Rottie to bone cancer too. It's so common...you could not have done more for your dog.

Jodi, I am so sorry you lost your beloved Rottie. We are keeping you in our prayers and thoughts, and know that you did all you could, for him.

May he live in your heart until you meet again.

Oh Jodi, I am so sorry :( .

I went through the exact same thing last year, in the exact same time frame too. My sweet girl was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in January & we lost her in May at this time. I didn't even find out about holistic treatment until the last week of her life.

Bone cancer is a wretched, wretched disease. Many of us here have been through what you're going through & understand your pain...like me. It's a year since Smidgen's gone & I've been crying all weekend because it's a year later and it still hurts so much :( .

Your Roscoe's in good company at the bridge. I'm sure that a bunch of our best friends are waiting for him so that they can compare stories & all have a good romp.

The pain gets easier & take solace in the thought that Roscoe's not hurting anymore.

I'm so sorry for your loss:( .

Jodi I'm so sorry:( . I hate coming here to Rainbow bridge bc it just upsets me so much:( . Please except my deepest sympathy and know you're not alone. It will be 3 years this July since I lost my one boy at the age of 7:( . It's never easy but the joy they give us outweighs the sorrow. God Bless! Hugs to you my friend.

Jodi,

I'm so sorry for your loss. Words alone can't bring much comfort I hope you realize how many prayers and thoughts are coming your way.

Rosco knows you did everything you could and in the end you were the true friend to him that he needed and loved.

Take Care,

Kathy
