I Had To Say Goodbye To Melody

Friday night 12/09 I had my 12 year old Melody put down due to cancer. I had to leave work after only 2.5 hrs. today, because I couldn't stop crying. I feel a huge hole in my life and feel as if my heart will break. I've been through a lot in life, but this is the worst I remember feeling. I loved that cat and it's killing me to think that she spent her last days in a cage at the hospital. I hurt so bad.

Hi, it's me again, Melody's Mom. This morning I am feeling a little peace from reading posts and able to think of her without tearing up. My goal today is to not cry in front of anyone at work, and I will remember all the times I know Melody felt my love and showed me hers in return. She gave me so much to look forward to in life. I have two other girls, and all three found me. I know they all needed me. Now my other two need me. My vet told me the others will grieve for Melody, even thought none of them liked the others. Missy, who was with Melody and me for about 5 years, has especially been wandering and making her little distress noises. I've come out of my sorrow to recognize them for what they are-grief.

Is it nuts to want and expect a sign that Melody is still alive somehow, aware of my love? I can never let her go. She found me at a time when I hadn't learned to be alone, and because of her, I was able to be.

I am so glad she is at peace, in no pain, has no fear and no more bad skin! She will always be in my heart. I thank you all for sharing.
