    Had to put down my 14 year old beagle yesterday. The pain is as intense as when my daughter died. You explain it well. We know we will out live them but we never really want that day to come. My house is so empty now.😢

    A shrine doesn't help either. A shrine is all good when it's for someone/or a pet who was old. When a young human or pet died, a shrine doesn't help. It makes it worse. Nobody wants to SEE a shrine for a young, healthy being who died suddenly. I think I'll end up in an asylum.

    • @EmbracingYourGrief

      I know many people who have found great comfort in a shrine honoring "a young, healthy being who died suddenly". I'm very sorry that hasn't been your experience.

    Thank you for your comforting words right now ❤ . As you know it’s been 13 months for me since losing my beloved Violet and we were together for 15 years since she was 10 weeks old. She had heart failure the last 2 years of her life so I was anxious during that period not knowing when I would have to say goodbye. Then the day she suddenly died and the traumatic experience I had with her at the ER was beyond painful. Having to watch her take her last breath in my arms was extremely difficult. 😪💔 And some people after 13 months just want me to “move on and get over it” is very sad and heartbreaking. Telling me to move on isn’t helpful. 💔

    • @EmbracingYourGrief
      @EmbracingYourGrief 29 днів тому

    Wow…you’re so right about that. I’m still mourning the loss of my fur baby and my mother’s birthday is this month too and probably why things still feel so raw to me. It’s been 13 months yesterday and someone told me today that “I should just get over it and be done with it.” Meaning I should be over my dog which is shocking because he’s lost a dog so he understands, or at least I thought he did. 😢

My grief from losing my beloved ChattyBob earlier this year has been more palpable as well. Thank you for explaining that my grief is normal and providing me with comfort and insight through this video. You are truly a blessing and I’m sending you love, peace and light for Fancy, your Mom and you. 💐🫂🩷

      That's ok. For some people, being surrounded by their photos is absolutely necessary. For others, it's impossible to look at photos and videos at all, sometimes for years. Remember, there is no Right or Wrong way to grieve -- there is only YOUR way. Sending comfort and strength. 💙

    Grief f%*:ing hurts.... it has been 3.5yrs since I lot my 'Red' I had her cremated and she will go in my box when I journey into the unknown and at the age of 53 it maybe a long wait but I do know she will wait for me. I look forward to that day strangly. I still quietly weep for her every now and then and glad I did not erase any footage of her now but took 2yrs before I could look without trembling. Grief never goes away but I found I can tolerate it better now and think that is the best I can hope for simply tolerate and I am at peace with that. Your journey is long but you will endure and if we are lucky we will be reunited as it always has been. Big hugs. ❤

      You're right -- grief never ends. And it always, always hurts. It doesn't get better, but it does get different -- something I tell clients all the time, and something which a dear friend reminded me of just yesterday. Thank you for sharing a bit of your dear Red with us. 💙

    Yet again you’ve shared some incredibly useful information and I’m so thankful! Being able to help comfort and affirm loved ones in their grief is so important, but it’s sometimes difficult to know what to say. I’ve learned a lot from this video and I’ll definitely incorporate what I’ve learned. This will be helpful in so many situations, not just in comforting a grieving family member, friend, or acquaintance. Thanks again! How are you doing? I’m continuing to hold you and Fancy in love, light, peace and prayer 🙏🏻🫂💐

    The daily lifestyle of having my beloved young 3 year old cat I miss soo much. I know one day I will meet his spirit when I leave this physical world. A big part of me would rather be with him now on the other side. Animal grief is totally minimised by many heartless people.

    Thank you ever so much for sharing your Fancy with us. I watched your videos, as I, too, was and am still healing from the loss of my Pepper ( 13 y.o. male cat) of 13 beautiful years on 12/5/23. I am doing what you suggest in having a sacred place for his cremains, and I do talk to him daily. His loss is more than I could have ever imagined. I am so grateful for having the most wonderful 13 year relationship with a most Precious being. What a Gift he is in my life. Thank you again, and prayers for your healing! ❤❤

    Thank you for the update. You and Fancy have been on my mind and I’ll continue to pray for you. This video is particularly timely and helpful, because I’ve been missing my ChattyBob so very much lately. His physical embodiment was filled to the brim with love, joy, enthusiasm and weapons grade happiness and hearing you say that the love is still here is incredibly comforting to me. I’ve never used the past tense of love when referring to him and knowing that you also refer to love in the present tense is so validating. Thank you so very much for continuing to be immensely helpful even while you are grieving. You are a gift and a blessing 🩷
