Sincerest condolences for the loss of your sister, Shelly. Good to see the emotional support Puffs are doing their job ❤
Shelly, all of us are sorry for the loss of your dear sister. Give Puffs and Auracuda lots of hugs, and remember that they are absorbent.😇💔
I am so sorry you and your family have suffered this terrible loss. I love how your kindness, honesty and openness changes the world for so many. Thank you for sharing. Sending love to you.
I'm not able to tune in every week, so I miss a lot of happenings unfortunately, that's why this takes me by sad surprise. THANKS FOR SHARING, DEAR SHELLY!!! I am elderly, ill now and with many life experiences, so I can relate to major loss, such harrowing times in our precious lives. Thanks for letting us know. Your thoughts, your words show the sensitive, good person you are. I hope you can rest, process and take care of yourself as you need. And yes, the lovely furry beings surrounding you are angel helpers of the soul, just looking at them on the screen, lovely souls. Thank you again for being who you are Shelley. You do a lot to help the world be a better place for all. Much love and empathy, take good care of yourself. ❤❤❤
So sorry for the loss of your sister 😢💔i lost mine last February 2023😢
I'm so sorry for your loss Shelly. Thank you for sharing. You honestly didnt need to. You are allowed to have a private life. My sincere condolences to you and your family at this time.
My heart broke from this news. I’m so sorry for the loss of your beautiful sister. Pancreatic cancer is a beast and life can be so unfair. Walked a similar path with loved ones too many times.
I’m so sorry for your loss! Major energy and love pushed to you and I’m so grateful you have the support puffs. You have helped me through some tough times so I hope you will take the time you need.
Numbness and shock give way to tears and distractedness, and grief catches you off guard for a long time. May the compassion you extend now be present every where you look..so you can heal❤
So we'll said. Thank you!
I just lost my fella to complications from his Glioblastoma. He passed on the 16th of last month. I know how you and your family are feeling. I was with him since 97. I knew him longer than I didn't. His mom has become my mom, and it's been so hard for her as well.
As long as you carry those you've lost in your mind and your heart, they're not really gone. But I am sorry for the pain you're feeling.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Losing my sister to esophageal cancer was so much harder to process than losing my parents. At a certain age-though it can still be hard-I expected to lose my parents, but I wasn’t prepared for the hole my sister would leave.
I'm so sorry to hear about your family's suffering and loss. I lost my brother to a very aggressive cancer in 2022. It sometimes still feels unreal.
I'm so sorry for your loss. Cancer is a frightening journey for all. Grief and fear...difficult to describe. I'm fighting stage iv ovarian cancer and I can feel this pain and turmoil. I hope should you need it to reach out to all the cancer caregiver groups (families count!). Sometimes it helps talking to people who know what this all means - even the darker moments to be expressed. I pray for peace for everyone who knew your sister and may her memories long keep your hearts warm, laughter at your lips, and joy in your mind for knowing her.
Shelly, I'm so sorry for what you and your family have gone through. My husband and I lost our adult son 9 years ago and I have a little idea of your journey. Hugs to you and your family for the loss of your beloved sister.
I’m so sorry for your loss too. That’s so sad. 😢
No parent should have to bury their child. May I offer you a hug?
Flower, Bluebelle and I send our love and biggest hugs. Our hearts are with you, Shelly. Fighting cancer was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. Grief is never linear, so take care of you however that looks like, and be kind to yourself. 🌺💙
I'm so sorry to hear about your sister. I've lost a couple of close friends to pancreatic cancer. It's an awfully cruel disease. Having a good support network will help through the dark days. Sending hugs.
My sincerest condolences on your loss Miss Shelly. May you find comfort in your memories of your Sister and in the arms of your family. A new bright star is in the sky now instead of here on earth.
Cancer is the worst. I have lost many family members and my best friend to liver cancer. Please take care, love yourself and take all the time you need to recover from this. You are loved by so so many Shelly. Love from Victoria, Australia.
The TK team did an amazing job while you were away, they were amazing!❤️
yes huge thanks to them all
Oh, Shelly. I don't know what to say. I'm so so sorry.
Ditto.
Shelly love and light to you and your family. Lost my sister to cancer 10 years ago. It’s rough. I still wake up at night and think about her and cry because I miss her so much. Bless your heart sweet Shelly. I’m crying right now. Thank goodness you have a few support animals.❤️🙏🏼
Oh, Shelly, my heart breaks for you and your family. Hugs to you.
Lets hope the kitties help you recover...
I had a very similar experience a few months ago when my older sister was diagnosed with cancer and passed away about two weeks later. It still huts, but each passing day it becomes a bit easier. My sincere condolences.
Oh Shelly--give yourself time to grieve. There are no rules, no timelines-just what you need. I've walked this path with my husband and I understand all the range of emotions you will experience. Be good to yourself. Let the puffballs comfort you be cause they are the best support team you could ever have. You know that the entire TinyKittens community is holding you close in our hearts💙🐾💙
Lovely Shelly , I am so very sorry for your profound loss ! You and your channel have helped me tremendously when I was losing my beloved mother to cancer a while ago. Your stories and videos helped to soothe and comfort me when the powerlessness and anguish would threaten to overwhelm me. I am forever grateful for such kind and big hearted people who so generously give of themselves and their passion to help animals and fellow human beings. The world is a better place because of you and your team. Sending much love and healing !
So sorry for the loss of your sister Shelly, heartfelt condolences to you & your family.
You are admired & loved worldwide (I'm from Tasmania, Australia).
In addition to educating, you and your team model kindness, compassion & show that every life matters.
You give so much of yourself, we all feel like we know you. Thank you for sharing such a difficult & personal story with everyone who cares about you.
May you find peace surrounded by those who love you, human & feline (even the growlie ones)💜 🐈 🐈⬛️
I just started watching recently. I. Am. So. Sorry. Words are inadequate to touch this pain. 😢
My condolences on your loss. Please be aware
, grief is not linear. Allow yourself to feel the feels and work your way through the process. Everyone processes grief at different rates so don't beat yourself up over it or compare yourself to others. Tiny Kittens has been a vital part of my recovery process as I've been in deep depression and high social anxiety since 2017. When I started watching the cattermelons was when Chloe, Romona and a third kitty were all popping about the same time. I loved the wee kittens acting like a bunch of Scotsmen on a pub crawl as they went from milk bar to milk bar. You and Tiny Kittens are amazing. Take the time you need to take care of yourself. In the mean time I'll keep you and your family in my prayers.
I am so sorry for your loss, Shelly. Cancer is such a horrible disease and having survived for 24 years now, I am blessed but I know many who have not survived. I am also an RN so have lived with disastrous illness and major consequences of illness. You need to do whatever it is that gives you support and a measure of peace. Your nephews and BIL will need support and you should feel able to step away and give them that care and yourself the blessing of time away. My daughter was 5 when I was diagnosed and I lived through the stress of 3 surgeries and chemotherapy and the fear that I would lose my battle and leave a 5 year old with no mother. That fear didn't go away until she was into her twenties and I felt that while it would be terrible to lose me, she would survive. At 5, I wasn't sure. She is going to be 30 on August 1st and I thank God and her that I survived. They were both there for me. Feel free to do what you need to do. You have an amazing support system at TQ and while it is easy to think that they cannot survive without your love and input, they always do. I will keep you and your family in my prayers.
So sorry for your loss Shelly. Best wishes to your family, her husband and sons. Your sister sounds beautiful. Hugs 🥰😻
Much love Shelly, for all the work you put in to make the world a better place. Thank you.
I lost an aunt to the same cancer. It’s heartbreaking & incomprehensible. 😢
Much love to you and your family during this incredibly difficult time.
My condolences Shelly on the loss of your beautiful sister. What a heartbreak for you 🥰
Shelly, I am so sorry for the loss of your sister. I recently walked with a close family member through her cancer diagnosis and passing. It's incredibly hard and also such a sacred gift to spend those moments with your loved one. Praying for you and your family as you grieve. Hugs.
My Sweet Shelley,my heart is feeling so sad for you and your
Family. I feel heartbroken for your Family and you,I know you
will miss her so much,but know that she is now at Peace and
not suffering anymore. 😢We are so pleased that you are back,
take your time,you have a great team,so let them take the load
for a while.Deepest Sympathies to you, your Parents, your brother inlaw and nephews,Love and Blessings,Valerie.❤❤
Oh Shelly, I'm so deeply sorry for the loss of your sister. It is devastating, and you owe us nothing whatsoever. Taking good care of yourself is primary. I can only speak for myself, but I'm pretty sure the TKer community fully and deeply understands and feels the same. You have been such an agent for alleviating suffering in the world, and our heart breaks in those times when a thing can't be fixed. But onward we go..... wishing you heart healing, all in good time. ox
Dear Shelly, I'm so sorry for your loss... I send you all my condolences !
I lost my father to cancer last fall after a two year fight.
My 3 and a half year old cat Apollo had been a big support for me during that hard time.
So sorry to hear about your loss Shelly 😢❤🩹
I'm so sorry for your loss, Shelly. Sending you and your family so much love.
My deepest condolences to you and your family, Shelly. It says so much about your huge heart that you think of us at this difficult time. The message at the end of your video was so beautiful. Sending you love.
Shelly, I'm so incredibly sorry to hear of your sister's passing. Unfortunately, I lost a close friend to pancreatic cancer 3wks ago. I never imagined having so many different feelings at once. Cancer truly sucks! If anything, I'm sure your sister was thankful to be surrounded by those who loved her the most. My sincerest condolences to you, your bil, nephews, parents & other family members & friends. Sending lots of love & hugs your way
I'm kind of a newcomer to Tiny Kittens, but my heart is breaking for you and tears are streaming down my face! I am a retired Nurse and have a pretty good understanding what your sister with through! Thank-you for the wonderful work you're doing for cats! God Bless!! ❤
So sorry Shelly. Thank you for sharing your loss with the community. Sending you comfort and peace.
So sorry to hear about the cancer beast that has taken your sister away and ravaged your family. More young people have been taken unexpectedly as we live in an environmentally affected world now. No one in my family has had cancer until I got rectal cancer in 2021. The treatment is sometimes worse than the little stuff that is trying to kill us. I am still recovering and dealing with side effects. It just takes time to go thru everything. I know you wish that there could have been a lifesaving outcoming. I'm just so sorry that you are going through this with your family. You have described the cancer journey of Help very aptly. Envelop and revere the treasure of your sister as you all move forward. So glad that the tiny kittens family and Puffs and Syracuse will be with you. I've watched since the intake of Puffs. My Nutmeg is the same age as Puffs. She was rescued from the street. You don't have to be strong, Shelly. Stretch and use your emotions. It will make you even better than you already are in dealing with the cruelties and unfairness in this temporary life. I do believe that we will reconnect with those that have already transitioned to a better place. Along with animals too. Sweet peace and understanding as much as possible to you. I know you and the people and animals around you know your deep love. 😘😥😽😻😻😻😻
Somehow Auracuda was auto tuned to Syracuse. See if she responds to it. lol.
Oh Shelley, I'm so sorry for your loss. My prayer is that while you recover from the trauma of the last month and grieve your sister's passing, you will also experience bubbles of joy as you recall times together with her. Grief cannot be rushed or put aside, it needs acknowledgement but it becomes gentler with time. Praying for your whole family and for the tinykittens team, for strength and grace as you work through it all together.
I'm really deeply sorry for your loss, Shelly. I can imagine how you feel as I've lost my mother six years ago and still miss her a lot. All the best for you and your sister's family.
So sorry to hear of your loss. wishing you and your family serenity as you work through this loss. Working with your little feline friends can help provide some comfort for you.
Dear dear Shelley. My heart breaks for you and your family. Prayers for healing and hope. I know your sister and family benefited for you being there. You bring so much good to this world. Bless you in your journey 🌹❤❤
I'm so sorry for your loss. All cancer's are horrible, but after watching my mom go through pancreatic cancer for 6 months, I think it's the worst. Many blessings and prayers to you and your family.
I am so sorry for your loss. I can certainly relate. I lost my sister to cancer within three months from her diagnosis. It has been one day at a time since then. Thank goodness you have your Tiny Kittens family to help you through this. Hugs to you❤❤
Sending many prayers for peace and comfort for your entire family. 🙏
Dearest Shelly, you and >^..^< tiny kittens are so loved. Sending you loving healing, thoughts. Your family is uppermost in my supportive prayers. Your sister and family fought valiantly. It’s time for healing and for you to be very good to yourself. Take all the time you need.
I loved what you said at the end, explaining how you intend to carry on. You’re an incredible woman. Your sister, I fully believe was nothing less. My sincere condolences to you, and your family. 😿
So sorry for your loss, Shelley.
Oh Shelly… I’m so very sorry for your entire family and all her friends. My heart breaks for you all.
I'm deeply sorry about this for all of you. It's excruciating. I know at times like this, it's hard to imagine going on. You'll find the healing therapy you need, cat related and more. Bless all of you. At the risk of repeating a cliche, your sister is truly in a better place, with no suffering. Thank you for sharing this painful life passage - your own strength will bring lots of blessings to your family, as you have to countless other innocent lives. Your devotion is an inspiration.
I am just now seeing this. I am so sorry for your loss. Praying for strength for you and your sister's family.
Oh Shelly, my heart is broken for you and your family. I’m so very sorry for your loss. ❤
I am so sorry to hear this. Sincere condolences to you and your family. I lost my Dad to pancreatic cancer, it is a devastating illness. I'm so glad you have your emotional support puffs with you. Thank you and your team so much for all you have done and continue to do for animals in need, hugs hugs to you all
I am so sorry for your loss. 😢 Lost my parents to lung cancer... My dad in October 2008 and my mom in December 2009. Hugs ❤
So sorry Shelly. Hope Aura and the Puffs can provide some relief for you.
Oh dear, sweet Shelly. I'm so sorry. My heart is breaking for you. So many of us have lost loved ones to cancer. Trying to write but my eyes are full of tears. Sending you and your family many hugs, and much love. 😔💔💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Oh, Shelly. I'm so sorry to hear this. My cousin passed away from the same brutal disease. She also had children of a similar age. You and your family are in my prayers.❤️
Oh Shelly this is such sad news and I have tears rolling down my face for you. I know this pain all too well. Sending love to you and your precious family. Thank you for bringing Tiny Kittens into my world xx
I'm so sorry for your loss. 😢 Hope, Family, kittens, the kitten Cam viewes and the Tiny Kitten "Helpers" cheered your up a little in the meantime. ❤
I am so sorry for your loss. I lost a very close friend to breast cancer. Thankfully, she did not suffer as much as your sister. I can't imagine how hard it was to watch her go through all that she did. Seeing my friend slowly deteriorate was hard enough. I wish I could give you a short cut to the grief but as you know, there is none. I wish I could tell you how to process, but as you know we all have to find our own way. Praying for you and your family.
Shelly, I could tell by the look on your face before you began speaking that someone had died. I am so sorry that you lost your wonderful sister! Pancreatic cancer is one that you never want to hear your doctor say that you have. You are just hardly given a chance to fight that one. Best wishes to your sister's sons and husband and to you and your parents as you now navigate the world with this terribly shocking loss.
Dear Shelly, and TinyKittens ❤
Dear Shelly, I am so very sorry to hear about your sister, just heartbreaking.. My sister passed from Pancreatic cancer in 2015 after a 10 month battle. It is a cruel disease. Sending thoughts, love, and prayers for comfort to you and your family.
I am so sorry to hear of this terrible loss. My older sister was diagnosed with malignant melanoma and later it metastasized. I was with her the day we heard the shocking nurse and part of the care team through her last awful months. We were able to be with her at the end. It left a big hole in my heart and I had a very hard time coping when I turned 52, which was older than my older sister would ever become. I am glad that you took time to be with your sister and your family. Grieving is very hard, even when the end is expected and it will pop up and bite you unexpectedly when some random smell or sight will remind you of your sister. I can tell you 27 years later it is easier but I still miss her so much. Take the time you need to begin to process this news and find more peace with it. You know you are loved not only by your family and friends who see but by thousands of friends you can’t see, but who see you.
I am so sorry for your loss Shelly much love and hugs to you and your family
Sorry for your lost my mm and her friend both diagnosed with breast cancer know how feel
So sorry for the loss of your sister. We lost my Dad in 2019 to pancreatic cancer. We were very lucky to have him almost 2 years after his Whipple surgery. I took comfort in knowing my Dad wasn't hurting anymore and in a better place. Hugs to you and your family
My heart breaks for you and your family. Such an unfair, cruel disease. In the last six months, I've said goodbye to 2 friends due to cancer battles. Know that all of your feelings are valid and they are valid for as long as they exist. There is no timeline on grief. ❤️🩹
My condolences to you and your family. In July 2012, my Dade was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. But due to his age (87) and other major health issues he was going through he was not a candidate for any type of treatment. Within 3 months he passed away. Cancer sucks. 💜💜💜 I have participated in fundraising with PANCAN here in Florida and I felt I was helping out in my Dad's memory since I otherwise felt so helpless.
I am so very sorry for your loss. Pancreatic cancer is particularly brutal, and it will take some time for your family to regain equilibrium. We missed you, but I am glad you were able to be there. My heart goes out to your whole family, including your parents, who should never have a child pass, and her husband and kids, who must go forward despite the staggering changes. Counseling helps! Please be kind to yourself; grief is unpredictable. Don't hesitate to ask the TK Community for whatever you need. We all love you dearly. ❤️
No words to say how sorry I am to hear this. I have an older sister, so....my heart breaks for you and your family. Life is so unfair sometimes. Prayers and deepest sympathy for all of you.
Shelly, I am so very sorry for your loss. Be gentle with yourself. If you want to cry, go ahead and cry. You will feel out of your body for a year, so don't be surprised. Sending you love.
I just saw this and I am so sorry, Shelly. My heart aches for you and your family. I hope your good memories of your sister get you through the tough times.
Lots of love to you Shelly. My cousin died of pancreatic cancer before I even really got to grips with her diagnosis, it was such a shock. I wish I'd realised she'd go so quickly and I wish I'd given everything up and been with her like you did (I did offer but didn't insist whereas now I wish I had...). I hope the kittens help distract you fleetingly from the pain and that they help you adjust and cope with this tragedy.
So sorry I just lost my sweet kitty Oreo on Thursday so I know heart ache and emotion
😞 my heart hurts for you. I’m sorry
The death of a sibling or child is too awful to contemplate. Wishing you and your family a peaceful recovery from this.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I can relate, because I lost two aunts this year in January and March. My heart goes out to you and your family.💜
Nothing can describe or compare what a family goes through when there is cancer in the midst. My heart goes out to all of you. I call cancer the Emperor of All Maladies. Being a caregiver will wear you down and at the same time you need to be strong for her. People say they understand, but no one can every understand it completely unless you've lived it. My sister, much older than your sister, was unexpectedly diagnoses with a highly aggressive brain tumor 2 years ago. It look her everything from her. She was so vibrant and physically active and now she just waits from MRI to MRI until it returns. It will return. I pray everyday to have my old boring life back.
I’m so very sorry. Cancer sucks. 😢
I'm so sorry for you and your family's loss, Shelly. Your sister is at peace now. Watching suffering is exhausting. I hope you can recover quickly.
Ah Shelly I am so sorry to hear this devastating news. It is the hardest news to receive when you find out that a loved one has received this horrible diagnosis. All I can say is one day at a time. Do look after yourself. One of the best pieces of advice I received was to not deny your emotions, be warned that they might creep up in the oddest places ie the produce department in the grocery store🥴 and to do whatever you can and live with the next day. I hope this makes sense❤. Bless you
So very sorry for your loss Shelly. May God wrap his arms around you and your family during this difficult time. So much love to you and your entire family.
I lost my younger sister 21 years ago to cancer and my older sister five years ago to breast cancer! So I am sending prayers and love ❤️
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your sister. Just remember that grief has no timeline, and that some days will be easier than others to get through. I’m sure your kittens will stay extra close to you during this time.
Much love from Pennsylvania. ❤
Im so sorry for your loss, its a terrible thing, my mom also died of cancer, she started feeling bad on may, and one month after, she died. big hugs for you Shelly
Oh gosh Shelly... That is way too tough. I am so sorry.
Oh dear Shelly. I'm so sorry for the loss of your dear sister 😔. Thank you for letting us know. So shocking and awful. Please take comfort in your human and feline support system. We are with you. 🙏🌱
Shelly please know that our hearts are with you through the grief process. Deepest condolences to you and your family.
I'm so sorry, Shelly. My deepest sympathy to you and your family. ❤
Shelly, I am so sorry. That hail was encouragement from a beautiful, gifted angel you now have.
