Tammy-Shai & ZOE- Thanks for the links & the poems I finally had the nerve to read them the other day.

Today is the first morning I didn't cry the moment I got up. I took a nap this afternoon & got to see him in my dreams. The only bad part was I called him & said- "Oh Gunnar - come here - your really not dead-Thank God" The really good part is I got to hug him in my dream & I thought I was awake- IT FELT WONDERFUL. I didn't cry when I woke - Instead I said " Thank you Lord- for one last hug." By the way he seemed really happy:0)

This Monday , tomorrow I decided to spread flowers in his HONOR along that path that we would walk together everyday. He loved smelling flowers- kinda funny & silly for a dog- But he really did. So I am hoping to have a little closure & peace when I am done. Besides that I know that Gunnar will truely love it!

Thank you again everyone- re-reading this post the last few days has gotten me through a tough time & even though I know it may be awhile before I stop crying when I speak of him, your words have helped me remember that MY BABY HAD A GREAT LIFE & I COULDN'T HAVE LOVED HIM MORE! Thank you all ! (HUGS)

man oh man oh man. I am actually crying at work now!! He was BEAUTIFUL!!!! And obviously loved VERY much.

When I had my doggie issues months ago, the heartfelt responses poured out too. It really does help things.

Hope you find comfort in your memories Christina.

Blessings,

Crystal, your love for your baby has truly touched my heart. I am so very sorry to hear of his passing. (((hugs)))

No, no, not my sweet old dog. I read that and my heart took a leap. He's just getting older and lumpier.

Last week I started to add Senior Formual dog gravey to his food, plus I started him on the Breeder's Choice brand Active Join Treats. I give him 3 extra Cookies a day and it's really seems to have made a big difference! He's much more mobile and actaully wanted to play with his squeeky baby.

Christina, I'm still crying for Gunner, and for you.

Christina My eyes are full of tears reading your story. I hope in time this will become easier but right now I know it hurts and I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers that you will make it through to better times. Keep his memories for those are what will bring smiles to your face again. ((((((HUGS)))))

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
