Eight Months

Yesterday marked eight months since Dymond’s passing. I’m still trying to get my life back to some sense of normalcy. It may sound odd, but there are still times I expect her to greet me at the door or wait for her apple. My heart will always have a void, but I feel so blessed to have had such an amazing bond with my pet. All my love little D.

Dymond was diagnosed with Histocytic Sarcoma October 2013, she kicked cancer's butt for nearly two years. She gained her wings on June 15, 2015.

  1. No, it doesn’t sound odd at all. In fact, I tend to think that, during the moments when you “expect” to see her, that’s when she’s really making her energy presence known!

    I bought two apples at the store yesterday, which was a little out of the norm for me. Guess that was more about a “sign” to share with you than the actual act of buying the apples!

    Katrina, that picture of Dymond! OMD!!! Doesn’t get any xuter than that! That face…it defines the definition of “Awww..”

    Just curious, has Dymond had you browsing around yet looking at other dogs that need your love? Hmmm…just wondering!

    I know for me, and this is just me, my life could never feel “normal” without a dog(s) in it!

    Thank you for sharing this adorable photo of Dymond. It sure does make us smile…and I know that makes her happy.

    Sending you more memories from Dymond that make you smile…and sending you love.

    1. Sally you are such a breath of fresh air. Thank you for your kind words. Thank you for sharing your apple purchase with me, I love that. I know one day I will be blessed with another dog,p and when that day comes I will know it my heart I’m ready. Love always, Katrina and Angel Dymond.

  2. Not odd. There are still moment that I want Sassy here and expect her to be. Going on 3 years. Sally is right sometimes and not telling you when it helps to open up your heart and let a new one in.

  3. My girl is still with me but I am struggling with knowing the eventual outcome. I keep saying “how am I going to be happy without her?”. It’s not like we have a choice. Thank you for sharing your journey. Your Dymond is beautiful and I can only imagine how much you must miss her. I’m sorry any of us on this site have to go through what we do but people like you who are sharing and helping those behind you, well that’s priceless.
    Hugs,

    1. Debbie thank you for the uplifting sentiment. I used to struggle and worry about her not being with me, especially after the cancer diagnosis. But after my pity party I thought, but she’s here now enjoy her in this moment and that is exactly what I did. One thing is certain we will leave this earth and no man knows the day or the hour. I feel so incredibly blessed to have had such a wonderful dog as my companion. She was more than my pet, she was my family. I miss her every minute of every day and I’m comforted in knowing she’s eating apples at the bridge. My faith has carried me through and I thank God for animals and the joy they bring. I surely hope I can bring comfort and joy to others, as so many have brought abundant joy and comfort to me.

      Love, hugs and blessings,
      Katrina and Angel Dymond
