Today is one of the saddest days of my life. Boris Loree, my most beloved little Boston Terrier of 12 years died today.
He was a happy dog entertaining company last night & was his regular self this morning...
Bill & I were out grocery shopping & when we returned he was lying dead on the floor near the front door. It was such a shock for both of us. He was there when we left & we would never had guessed that he would not be living when we returned. Sudden deaths are hard to take in.
My heart is so heavy, my eyes & head are sore from so much sorrow. He has been my shadow for 12 years & now I am to walk alone. Just the thought, my eyes are swelling with tears.
I realize we all have expiry dates & nothing that is living will live forever...it just hurts, the void that has been left.
Bill has told me to take one day at a time. And tomorrow is a new day but the feeling of his presence is still with me & those two black & white cats make me think I've caught a glimpse of him...then the reality hits & I know I never will again see him.
When you visit later this week I should be more myself, right now my heart is aching, my little man is gone & it is going to take time to heal my broken heart.
I know why they call a dog - Man's best friend. This little guy has loved me unconditionally, his whole life. And has always been the best dog ever!
Oh Boris Loree - RIP peace my little man. You will be much missed by me & your feline buddies.
We will all miss Boris Loree too. Hugs to you.
ReplyDeleteOh Cynthia, I'm so very sorry for your loss. I know how much you love you little Boris Loree, and I know there's a big void in your house now but i'm glad Bill was with you when you found Boris. You will feel his presence for quite a while and each time you come into the house you'll expect it was just a dream and he will be there at the door to greet you. That's how it was for me when Mitsy left us and every one of my three cats. It's just too hard to loos them as they feel like family.
ReplyDeleteI just learned yesterday that my brother Joseph's youngest daughter died in hospital this weekend.
He only had the two daughters and Joseph was next to me in the family. I'll be going to Bathurst as soon as I get the final arrangements.
My thoughts are with you at this difficult time Cynthia.
(((BIG HUGS)))
Julia
We all will miss him & his cuddles when we visit you down here... Take care, see you soon
