To My Faithful Friend Lucky *edit*
15 years ago
General
*edit* I was able to hug and kiss her one last time and I was there, holding her in my arms as she went to sleep one last time. Goodbye Lucky, life will be that much less special without you in it.
Today, things turned for the worst with my beloved 15 year old boxer dog Lucky. Its her time and my heart aches beyond words to know she will not be by my side tomorrow. She has lived a good long life, is loved by my whole family and will forever be missed. I remember being with her the day she had puppies, the many long walks we took, the games we played together and I will be with her through till the very end. I love you Lucky and never forget that you were my best friend
Here is a poem that my mom wrote:
Since the day that I first met you
You've been right there by my side,
On the good days and the bad days,
When I've laughed and when I've cried.
Today the tears won't stop,
Feels as though they'll never end~
Coming to grips with having to say
"Goodbye" to my most faithful friend.
Now who am I going to turn to
When the world gives me it's back?
Now who's going to warm and brighten my day
When things feel cold and black?
I'll just cling to all the memories of
Your UNCONDITIONAL LOVE throughout the years
And forget this decision I have to make
Which is the reason for all of my tears.
You're more than "just a dog"~
You're been my faithful friend,
It just hurts so much to have to accept
Our life together holds a finite end.
And to add to that hurt is knowing
That I'm the one in control,
And that has made the hurt and pain
Resonate down through my very soul.
But it hurts me more to see you like this,
I can't and won't allow you to remain
In the current state your in
That consists of discomfort and pain
So I'll use this control I've been given
And allow you eternal, peaceful rest,
Remembering always that for 14 years
I was so awesomely blessed.
You'll never be forgotten,
You're forever in my heart.
As with every ending, saying "Goodbye"
Is always the hardest part.
The End

I can't think of how badly you hurt, but at least she lived long and well, right?
I don't know what else to say...
She was a very special companion and friend, and I know how much she meant to your family....your mom's words capture it very eloquently,
My thoughts are with you all right now....she will definitely be missed.
