Gratefulness and Grief

1/9/2019

I continue to be amazed and impressed by all the families I am meeting.

I get to witness the human animal bond at its strongest, immersed in a sea of gratefulness and grief. Seeing pets at the end of their life and their owners suffering through loss is hard. But this sorrow is balanced by seeing the best of the human animal bond.

Let me give you some examples…I’ve seen...

Bucket lists fulfilled including Sushi night

Parties of 20 plus people celebrating life and saying goodbye

Friends and family coming together to support one another in loss

Pets looking up at their owners filled with love and trust

Other pets in the house acknowledging their friend passing and comforting their family

Beautiful paintings and portraits memorializing their beloved pets

And so much more

Pet owners and pets continue to amaze me in how much they love one another unconditionally. And that love allows them to make that hard decision of letting pets pass with grace and dignity.

People tell me all the time that “this must be the hardest part of your job”…..
And yes it’s hard and has its challenging, but I leave every single house in awe and gratefulness that I get to do this and witness the beauty of the human animal bond. It is an honor for me to walk with people and pets during their last leg of their journey together and I am truly blessed by the people and pets I meet.

I knew why I needed to endure. The more seasoned we get, the more reasons God gives us to look for His solace. Eventually, He sends us barely enough agony and enduring so we will need to leave. In the case of everything were great, we could never decide to go. He maintains that us should look for a finish to our enduring on the grounds that He believes us should need to return home.

Recently, I went through the painful experience of losing my dear pet, which left me feeling overwhelmed with grief and a sense of emptiness. However, I discovered that there are many resources available for support during this difficult time, such as online forums and support groups. It's crucial to understand that you are not alone, and others have gone through the same feelings of loss and sadness. Take as much time as you need to mourn your pet and celebrate their life in your way. Seeking help and support from others is perfectly acceptable during this time. Remember the happy memories you shared with your pet as they can bring comfort and relief during these challenging times. Keep going, and things will get better with time
