I finally learned how to put an image on the post, I should have looked for pennmom's tutorial on it way before I did.

There's an empty space where you used to lay, the hurt in my heart that won't go away. I couldn't have asked for a better friend, my faithful companion until the end. We'll meet again one day for sure, for you have my heart as I have yours.
So meet me at the rainbow, when the time is right. Run into my arms again, walk with me into the light.

Oh good heavens, I've just seen this...what can one say except to wish you all the best and do hope no one was hurt, so upsetting for you and yours.

Thank you everyone for the posts and support. This has been the toughest time I have ever endured and for the first time I feel like DH and I are doing it alone because we loved Loki more than anyone could imagine and even tho he loved his dad, momma was his rock and he was mine. When he first came into our lives Loki found me and jumped in my lap and gave me a look asking for help, he was emaciated weighing just 2.4 pounds and you could see every rib and count every vertebra on his spine. That look melted my heart and once he was healthy we proceeded with things that would make him more comfortable including reconstructive surgery on both back legs. Every game I played, every post, every review was done with Loki on my lap. We took him on vacations, we took him everywhere, everything I did I did with Loki beside me. The last thing I told him was that I had to go to a doctor's appointment but that I'd be back soon, but it wasn't soon enough. I tried everything I could to get in the house to save Loki when I got back but the fire was raging and I couldn't get in, they had to pick me up and drag me away from the house because I was determined to save him somehow but in the end I just wasn't there when he need me the most

I am so, so sorry to hear this Penmom. Wishing you and hubby strength and faith that you will get through this. You will never "get over it", I know, and losing Loki is totally heartbreaking. Just hang on to each other and let yourselves grieve for as long as you need.

Dear pennmom, There are no words to tell you how sorry I am for your loss. I hope I'm not crossing over the line when I say, please.., try to let go of the guilt. It wasn't you're fault! You.... were there, when he needed you the most. You took him in, you got him healthy, made him as comfortable and happy as he could be. You know in your heart how much he loved you and you know he knew how much you loved him. You may never know or understand until God calls you home for the reason he took Loki that day and the way he did it. I do know guilt will eat you alive and won't let you grieve for your loss, a part of your heart that's gone, an emptiness that can't be filled, the heartache, the pain, the sorrow and the loneliness. Guilt is like a thick dark mist that when the good memories come it creeps in and overwhelms them. I know about guilt and what it can do. It's been eight years for me and I'm still saying, if only I had been there for him. I don't know how to tell you to let go of the guilt I just know you have to. I couldn't do it but I sincerely hope you can. So the day will come when You & DH are at a place where you will be able to talk about your beloved Loki sharing all the happy memories you had together with each other and with others. With all the good memories from the heart that we do share are the greatest gift we can give to those we lost. Keeping you both in thoughts & prayers, patches
