In need of Prayer

The Rainbow Bridge poem always helps me:

Just this side of heaven is a place called 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....

Sorry about your pug.

Your in my prayers...and I understand the grief of loosing a pet you love so dearly. My two cats of 14yrs of age both died within a month of each other last year. And I understand how painful it is to where you can't breath. I thought I would die. I can only pray for you and say to pray for God's comfort and strength for yourself as well.

You have my deepest sympathy...I know how hard it is to lose a pet. I had a beagle named Bonnie for 15 years, I grew up with her. She finally died about a year ago and I still miss her:brokenheart:

Sorry for the loss of your beloved pug.

Prayers & Peace -
:flowerforyou:

I am so terribly sorry for your loss. I started tearing up ready rainbow bridge and had to stop and I couldn't read the rest of the replies. Please just know that we are all thinking of you and your family.
Sometimes people think that it shouldn't affect you too deeply because it was just an animal. This was a family member that you lost.
Allow yourself the time you need to greive.

I just said a little prayer for you, brendab. The poem that Mary posted is awesome, isn't it? It comforted me too when I lost my wheaten terrier puppy that we rescued from a puppymill. Just keep reading it over and over and you will find solace in it. I know it is hard to eat when you are stressed, I get that way too. But try something because it will make you feel better and help you cope physically and mentally from this sadness. Peace be with you.:flowerforyou:

Rainbow Bridge

Just this side of heaven is a place called 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......
