Misty is in heaven now...

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.

    Misty is in heaven now...

    Hi,
    I just wanted everyone who offered advice and love and prayers to know that Misty died yesterday in my arms.  She fought for so long and so hard that her little body could not do it anymore.  It is with so much despair and sadness that I say I know she is in a better place now.  She can finally be a "dog" again with no special food or medicine or shots or tests - she is running and playing, eating and sleeping - most of all she is watching over my daughter and me from up above.  I miss her so much that it actually "hurts" and my daughter is devestated beyond belief...  This is the 2nd dog she has lost in her her short 7 years on this earth and she is such a loving animal person that it breaks my heart to see her so upset.  I wish I could take the pain away and even more I wish I could have Misty here with us - but healthy and happy....but those wishes are not to be...  So with love and faith and lots of wonderful memories we will move foward into the next chapter in our lives.
    For everyone out there reading this - please hug your loved ones furry and otherwise and love them while they are here because the time is fleeting and when they are gone there are no more hugs. 
    Misty's may she rest in peace - Mom

    Reading your post brought tears to my eyes. I know all too well the pain you're feeling and I know it from your daughter's perspective as well. It's heartbreaking and yes, the pain is real. It will get better though and as you said, Misty is now free from pain. Run free Misty.

    MAY I GO
    by Susan A. Jackson
    May I go now?
    Do you think the time is right?
    May I say goodbye to pain filled days
    and endless lonely nights?
    I've lived my life and done my best,
    an example tried to be.
    So can I take that step beyond
    and set my spirit free?
    I didn't want to go at first,
    I fought with all my might.
    But something seems to draw me now
    to a warm and loving light.
    I want to go. I really do.
    It's difficult to stay.
    But I will try as best I can
    to live just one more day.
    To give you time to care for me
    and share your love and fears.
    I know you're sad and afraid,
    because I see your tears.
    I'll not be far, I promise that,
    and hope you'll always know
    that my spirit will be close to you
    wherever you may go.
    Thank you so for loving me.
    You know I love you, too.
    That's why it's hard to say goodbye
    and end this life with you.
    So hold me now just one more time
    and let me hear you say,
    because you care so much for me,
    you'll let me go today.
    Dedicated to everyone who has ever had to put down a beloved dog. Or say goodbye to there best friend
