1 week today...:(

Oakley,

It has been one full week since we lost you.  My heart still aches, but the pain is subsiding.  I don't want to ever forget you.  I will admit that it's a relief not to have the stress of constant worry nagging at me at every corner - are you going to eat your dinner, are you in pain, when is the cancer going to take you, will the alternative therapies work, etc.  Of course, if I could have you back I certainly wouldn't be complaining.  I would much rather have you here to take care of, to get lots of hugs and kisses from you, and to just keep me company and be by my side. 

It's been so quiet around here; I worry a bit about Maya, but she seems to be doing better each day and coming out of that shell of hers.  I am not sure when we will decide on getting another dog.  A part of me now just wants it to be the 3 of us as I think Maya would be fine on her own.  But, I do miss having a dog that loves attention, and loves to be the center of it!  LOL!  It was always about Oakley!  :)

I'm going to be working on a scrapbook soon.  I'd like to make an actual book of pictures of you, and all of us, throughout the 9 yrs we shared with you.  I received my books today about how animals do have eternal life.  I am looking forward to reading them and I hope they make me feel somewhat better.  I really want to believe with all my heart that I will see you again someday.


I still miss you and I will always love you, "Okie".
