I am so so sorry there is no time frame, time limit for grief , no one is going to blow a whistle for carrying that ball too long… hoping you find ease
Your feelings are shared totally and the way you wrote this piece touched me, especially when trying to memorise all the funny ways, looks and smell, I so remember doing this and drink it all in at the end. My dog died a year ago, she was 16.5 years so had a good life, but it was so tough and I felt the loss for many months. Now I remember her and smile with all the lovely memories of what made her my special girl 🥰
I'm so sorry for your loss. Camellia's impact on your life is profound, and your tribute beautifully captures the depth of your grief and the cherished memories you hold dear.
As one who is no stranger to deep grief, this resonates with a grateful vulnerability that is just so tender and thoughtful it has the same transitory quality as the transition between seasons and of something intangible but precious slipping through your fingers.
olivia i’m so sorry for your loss, what a beautiful pup :( the loss of a pet feels so hefty, i lost my dog teddy in 2022 & i still think about him all the time. thank you for your words + capturing the intensity of feelings
I lost my dog over the summer too, and this meant the world to read. Especially the “how much grief is too much?” — i felt that in my gut. Sending love and know ppl are sitting with you in the grief, even though that doesnt make it lighter
Oh my 😞 everything about this made me tear up. This was so touching and incredibly heartbreaking at the same time. I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m sending you so much love 💛
I’m so sorry for your loss 🖤 this brought tears to my eyes, your grief but even more so, your love, so palpable. Such a beautiful tribute. Praying for healing & comfort.
I can't explain fully why (it would be too personal) but reading this tonight has made me feel understood, and has warmed my heart in ways I'm incredibly grateful for. Thank you for sharing this and being so open. I'm sending you so much love <3
beautiful writing and what a way to describe your own grief, I teared up while reading. I have an old dog of my own and I feel like I constantly need to prepare myself for her passing, but I know no amount of prepping will help. so sorry for your loss🤍🫶🏼
So touching!!
Dealing with loss so near and dear to your heart is not easy but the way you articulated your feelings in the post is commendable. ✨
Something broke within me while reading this.
May your dog remain safe and happy in heaven.
May God bless the innocent being!!✨

Love that thought “no one is going to blow a whistle” write that down!
I should’ve put ‘too long’ in quotes. Because there’s no such thing but I think you understood what I was trying to offer
Such lovely words 🥺
I'm so sorry for your loss. I've lost a close pet and it was one of the hardest losses I've experienced. Thank you for writing about it.
