Farewell Zelly

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.

    Farewell Zelly

    My grandma's German Shepherd died this morning at age 12. She had arthritis to the point that she couldnt get up and a sore on her back that hadnt healed in two years that my grandmas husband cleaned and bandaged everyday, she had lumps on her body that the vet felt she wouldnt make it though the treatment for. They almost put her down two weeks ago but the vet looked into her eyes and said she wasnt ready. They went out for like 45 mins this morning and came home and she had passed. I will miss her a lot even if we never really saw eye to eye. My grandma loved her dearly. Run free sweet Zelly!

    It's good they truly considered "HER" wishes -- it's probably the way she would have "chosen" (and maybe she did!)

    It's always so difficult when a pet passes that is "in the family" -- it leaves such a huge hole!  Be at peace Zelly -
