Laura’s blog~ Finding my Way…
Tue ,11/08/2009This is from my bunspace blog
I wanted to let you guys know that me and Dave are coming along. There are less tears out of nowhere, but they still come when I read the comments and watch the videos or look at old photos. But even through the tears I still can’t bare to not see her, even if only in pictures. I’m only sleeping with the stuffed bunny now, I can get through the day without holding it so I guess that is progress.
The vet visit with the dog went well, she has an upper respiratory infection and needs antibiotics and we got her some estrogen for her incontinence and we’ve started Metacam for mild arthritis. Too bad there wasn’t a cure for the drooling and farting.
Well with that huge releif we also got a tremendous surprise. There is a Bunspace Angel, a person with a heart so rich with love and kindness, who has paid for Trinket’s special Cremation!! This was such a beautiful and thoughtful gesture in doing this, and it kept our bill from going over the top of that freakout number that I have in my head, LOL. Thank YOU, Thank YOU so much, you have truly touched us. The girl who informed me is just so blown away with shock that people we have never met personally would do such a thing and anonomously at that!! She can hardly beleive that such a place as bunspace exists with such amazing and with caring people.
I also found a surprise in my email today as well, notification that another Bunspace Angel has gifted our family with a whole years VIB!!! OMG, Trinket will not fade away into the archives of bunspace!! Thank you so much for helping me to continue to share her with you!! I feel like she has been helped to be raised by this entire community of people and buns that all love her. If only our families and our closest “real world” friends could be so thoughtful and sensative to eachother!
Wembly and his Dad have made another song for my sweet Girl and I have been working on my own Tribute to Trinket all afternoon. The computer went nuts today and I thought I fried my hard drive when for awhile none of the programs would work or open properly, but this evening I finally have things working and have managed to upload to YOUtube. I hope you will be comforted too by what I think are some of her greatest insites to life. My wonderful girl showed us all so much and somehow I was able to tap into what I think she’d want me to share with you. So its more like her Tribute to Life than my trubute to her. Thank you so much for another beautiful song Mike and Wembly, I know I will be spending a lot of time watching it over and over again. Your beautiful music and soothing voice has helped bring me closer to peace and acceptance. What an amazing gift of healing and love for Trinket, XO Laura
And if you haven’t cried enough, I also want to post a beautiful Tribute Video that Suzy Q and Mom did for Trinket as well. I cried and cried when I watched this the first time, but it was a good cry, theuraputic and cleansing so it was such a good thing. Thank you sweet hearts for such a lovely and sweet Tribute to “OUR” sweet Trinket.
So I won’t be around at all tomorrow. I just found out Trinket’s Aunti Sherri Ellen has lost her father just yesterday and the funeral is tomorrow, 3 1/2 hours away. She is unable to get there so Dave and I are taking her down so she can say her good byes and to try and be a support to her. I’m still a bit numb and scattered myself, but helping someone else will help me snap out of it!! Trinket would want me to be strong for her. Loosing a father is one of the hardest things in life, I remember, its still not been that long for me. So she joins me in orphanhood, a wounded child left to carry on alone in the world, no matter how old we get, its a challenging realization to be the last of your family line.
So don’t worry for me, I sucking it up and finding my way along a healing path. Surprisingly making this video of Trinket has really helped me a lot. Taking the time to contemplate her wisdom and strength has given me some freedom of the pain in the pit of my stomach, I think I can finally breath again tonight. I have been spending as much time outside in the dark under the stars as I can. I still cannot find her in the sky above me yet, but I know she is near. xo Laura
