Lucys shoes, headcoller and tail hair that is. It's been at the vets since she was put down in July :(. I simply haven't been able to face going to get them. I know that probably seems silly but it's the last thing I've had left to do and just couldn't face it.
I've been dreading it all day. My OH will be home at 5 to pick me up and then we'll go together. He doesn't see why it's such a big thing but I just know i'm going to cry. I'm crying now just typing this out. My vet was fantastic and I want to thank her properly for all she has done. I've been having a few problems with the practice though (another reason for dreading going). In away thats a good thing though it's given me the kick up the arse to get Lucys stuff.
Sorry I realy don't know why i'm posting this I just needed to let it out somewhere it's been on my mind all day.
Tomorrow i'll take Herbs for a nice ride on the forest and hopefuly it'll all be ok again.
 
Is that her in your signature? She looks beautiful. Wherever she is now, she knows you love her and she loves you too, I'm sure.
 
Laura,

You'll probably have collected Lucy's things by the time you read this. It won't have been easy for you, but if you're anything like me, you'll be so glad that you've kept something of her. Polly didn't have any shoes for me to keep when I lost her in June, but I did cut a lock of her mane to keep - which is now attached to a pencil drawing a friend of mine did of Polly many years ago now, and which hangs over my computer at home. I can look at that drawing and the lock of mane and smile fondly at the memories! I hope it's the same for you eventually. XX
 
Oh bless you Laura, it makes everything seem so final doesn't it. Your lovely Lucy will always be with you in spirit, I'm just so sorry for you pain. x
 
:( When i first had some of Bobbys mane it really upset me, i found it the other day and it really felt nice to have a part of him to remember him by :)

Hugs xxx
 
Laura, it's not silly at all, Lucy was such a massive part of your world, it's natural to feel as you do. I hope having some of her things back gives you some comfort.
 
One day those things will be of great comfort to you Laura. I now smile when I see the little hairs caught between stitching, it gets easier and the grief will ease and be replaced more often with fond memories.
 
Awww hun thinking of you. I still have Woodys headcollar with woody hairs on and it hangs with the others, infact most of my numnahs still have his hair on, hes still around. Lucy will always be with you somewhere somehow, she was your one!

Thinking of you x x
