Forever in my heart... Jeter



Recommended Posts

For those of you that were around 5 months ago, you might remember my problems with Jeter. The time came. Jeter died at 3:10pm today. It was a peaceful silent death and I held him as we helped him die at the vet's office. This is breaking my heart as I feel as if I have lost a piece of me. I know he lives on forever in my heart but I miss him terribly. The friendship, the love, the trust and the strength of him amazes me. I have often wonder why people are incapable of giving the same type of love that a dog gives us.

Thank you for all of the love and support you all gave me when he first became ill.

My friend will be missed. Our family will mourn. And a part of him will be with me forever.

I truly feel for you dear. My dog is like a furry child and best friend rolled into one. They truly become a part of the family. Another hug sent your way.

Sorry to hear of your loss. I'm also someone who sees and feel that my pets are my children. I have had to put a very beloved dog to sleep but as hard as it was, I couldn't bear to see her suffer, she didn't deserve that. I have found that keeping a picture in a place you can see it frequently as you move around your house can be helpful. I lost my girl two years ago and I still tell her I love her and miss her and everynight I tell her good night. They truly do steal a part of our hearts and again I am very sorry you have to go through this loss, but agree with Crystal, you did what needed to be done with love in your heart.

Aww, I'm so sorry Jenna. I know this is hard for you. I'm thankful for you for the last 5 or so months...he was so sick before and you have had all this time together. Bless you.

I am so, so sorry to hear this. Many of us here have had to help our most favorite friends (our pets) out of thier misery.

It is so very hard. It still brings tears to my eyes. Of course you did the right thing - but that doesn't really help you with the grief you feel right now.

Time is a wonderful salve on a wounded soul.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
