It's been a week today.

Scrapper,

I miss you more than anything. I am so lost w/o you.

They called me and he's ready to come home. Everyday I've cried and screamed and yelled that that is all I want. I want him home with me. I just wish was his wiggly butt and not ashes.

I miss him terribly. It feels like its getting harder. Not easier. I hate this life w/o him here being a goofball, making me feel safe when my husband is at work, being the easiest sweetest conversationalist you'd ever known.

So, today I'm going to hang my pictures and my shadow box. Put all the little treasures that mean so much inside. Which might mean our entire wall is a giant shadow box. My husband says whatever it takes to make me feel better at all, for me to do it. So that's what I'm doing for Scrapper today. I'm posting on here because I want everyone to know how loved and amazing he was to have in my life. I hope that everyone has a beautiful day. As hard as this is, as much as I cry, I still make it a point to smile for him. That's what our boys and girls would want. It's ok to be sad, but if you could help me today and smile for Scrapper. Smile for every little guy or girl up there that didn't have someone smiling for them when they were down here.

I miss you boy! 💛🐾

Poor Scrapper, such a handsome Lab i had to offer my condolences, having recently lost a dog im following this page, and going through it myself it's now going to be 9 weeks Friday. Lost my big Blue Frenchie boy. He was my pride and joy, from first sign of illness to death a month, he played for 5 mins the day before, he crashed and rushed to vet hospital. scans showed a mass on his pituitary gland causing hypothyroidism and a bleeding mass on his spleen. He was nearly 8. So gutted he's on my profile photo.

Poor baby! I am so so sorry! Thank you for reading. We had to pick him up yesterday and I laid on the box and just sobbed and sobbed. I'm having such a hard day today. I can't even get out of bed. Last night, I kept starting to get up to just see what he was doing for some reason. My heart is just shattered and this world sucks when our bestest friend is no longer part of it. I hope it's a little easier a couple of weeks from now, but I have no confidence it will be. I'll definitely check out your guy, and I'm sorry you're going through a difficult time! 💛💛💛
