TESSY...Run Free Beautiful Princess

Rainbow Bridge

The Rainbow Bridge is the theme of a work of poetic prose written some time between 1980 and 1992, whose original creator is unknown. The theme is of an other-worldly place to which a pet goes upon its death, eventually to be reunited with its owner.

       I've been dreading this news. It's hard to find the words to tell you how deeply sorry I am. I know your heart is broken. ((((Johnny))))

       Run Free Sweet Tessy Broken Heart

    • Gold Top Dog

    Johnny, sending you my deepest condolences for your loss of your sweet Tessy.  I don't post a lot on the forum, but I often read, and I know from all your posts that you were devoted to Tessy and made tremendous sacrifices to provide her with the best of care.  She was blessed to have a home with someone so loving and committed to her.  You will have a very special angel watching over you now.  And even though her physical self if gone, she'll always be with you -- your bond with her endures! 

    Run free, Tessy.  You were dearly loved and will be missed by Johnny and many friends -- even those who you never met!  Broken Heart

    I'm in tears reading your responses.  Thank you all so much.  I had no idea it would hit me this hard.  Even just going to bed without her and then waking up without her nose in my face. Crying  My whole life and routine revolved around her.

    Thank you all again more than you know.  Reading your responses brings so much comfort to me.  Love you all!

    Words escape me.  Run free sweet girl.  You had the best of the best people in your life.  We will TRY to take care of him for you.  Johnny, I'm so very sorry.  ((warm hugs))

    (((Johnny))) - I'm so very sorry. You were such a great dad to Tessy and gave her every chance possible. She knew how much you loved her and that it took that kind of love to let her go. I wish we all weren't separated by so many miles at times like this but know that we're all right beside you and holding you up spiritually.

    Run free Tessy

     Johnny, I am so sorry about Tessy. She was such a fighter! She'll have so many friends up there!

     When you're ready, email me a pic of her, and I'll add her to the Welcoming Committee photo. (And I don't remember if Sadie is also there or not. If not, send me a pic of them both).

     Johnny, I know every ounce of fight was put into this - both from you and from Tessy.  My heart hurts in a big way to know how much of a shock it is to the system to know that fight is over.  I can't articulate how much I sympathize and empathize with you and wish we could help you feel comforted.  Tessy will live on in our hearts because of the stories you shared with us - the struggles and the triumphs that happened every day through her illness.

    We're beside you now, in spirit at least, hoping you feel safe and supported among friends who understand that love for your dear girl and how much this hurts today and for the days to come.

    So, so sorry. Run free, Tessy. Johnny, we're all thinking of you.
