My son is 1 and my dog is dead
3 years ago
Here is what is going on with me...
My husband and son went with me to Memphit Fur Meet so I could be a dealer there last weekend. My son turned 1 on September 3rd while we were there. My dog Cooper also passed away while my dad was watching the dogs while we were gone. On the same day. So far they suspect he had a heart issue he was born with, and when he got some gastrointestinal issues, it set off a chain reaction that caused his heart to fail. I didn't get to say goodbye to him. He was only 5. We had no idea this was going to happen. And I'm DEVASTATED. But I'm trying to keep my mind off of it while Daemien is awake since he still needs us. I feel so guilty. And heartbroken. I just want to sleep and cry. Cooper was supposed to grow up with Daemien. They were gunna be buddies. I miss him. I'm so sad.
I am upset with myself too though, because daemien turned 1 and I should be happy for his sake. And I'm happy he is 1. But I'm still torn up over cooper..

I'm so sorry to hear about Cooper, it's all the harder when it's unexpected and he was so young. Please don't feel bad about not being "happy enough" for Daemien's birthday. You need to grieve, Cooper was your child too, just in a different way. Don't feel guilty for needing to grieve while life still has to go on.

I second what Jasanni said, you need time to grieve, and there will be more time to be happy later. Wishing you all well.

I'm glad I got to see you at the con, even if we didn't get to talk much. I'm so so sorry about your dog, though. That's hard enough to loose someone you love, let alone while you're not there to get to say goodbye.
