My dear Champ how I miss you.
You were my bestfriend for 15 years
how am I suppose to get use to you not being here.
I still find myself looking down to the floor
expecting to see you there under my feet or beside my bed as I wake up.
You had a bad back for so long that I knew one day
it would take you from me.
You got so you couldn't move your hind legs anymore.
I'm so sorry you suffered those last two days,
I just wanted to be sure I was making the right decision.
I also want to apologize for not staying calm
as I held you when they gave you that final shot.
I didn't want to cry as I knew that would upset you.
I still feel you quiver as I held you.
At least now I know you are not suffering and are at peace.
I asked you to please send me some kind of sign
to let me know you are alright and in my heart I believe you did.
I had no idea where animals go after death
but with alot of reading I learned they go over the rainbow bridge.
I had you cremated and while I buried you
it was raining with the sun shining and right above me
was the most beautiful rainbow I had ever seen. In my heart
I believe you were sending me that sign
you are over the rainbow bridge.
Champ you will always be in my heart and
my thoughts will always be with you.
I am so thankful that I could be a part of
your life and you a part of mine.
One day hopefully we will be with each other again.
Love your mom.
Susan
