Here is a background for all those not following Sasha http://www.cornsnakes.com/forums/showthread.php?t=131000&highlight=sasha

After battling possibly cancer, Sasha died last night (roughly 2:45 am). I had just went to bed when she jumped up on the bed desperately (and she did not like to be on the bed, if I got her on there, she would jump off). I was holding her when she (appeared) to have a heart attack. I'm still trying to grasp the situation.

Needless to say, I'm devastated. I've lost my best friend, I could do nothing about it. I'm not entirely sure how I'm going to deal with this. I feel so alone now.

Depending on how things go, I might not be around here for awhile. But I thought I would let everyone who cared know.
 
Deeply sorry for your loss. Take your time to mourn, many prayers are with you. Cherish your memories.
 
I'm so sorry to hear this news. But think of the few extra months you had to enjoy her company. And be thankful she sought you out when it was time to say goodbye- she just wanted you to be with her in the end.

We who choose to surround ourselves with lives even more temporary than our own,
live within a fragile circle, easily and often breached.
Unable to accept its awful gaps, we still would live no other way.
We cherish memory as the only certain immortality,
never fully understanding the necessary plan. -Irving Townsend
 
I am so very sorry for your loss :( I agree with Nanci - she sought you out to be with you at the end, and that shows just how much she loved you, and she knew you loved her. You must have given her a very happy life <3

Beautiful quote, Nanci. Thank you for posting it.
 
So sorry to hear this about your Sasha. :(

At the very least, you were there for her. She came to the person she loved and trusted, and who loved her.

Many of us have been there at the passing of a beloved pet, and I hope your memories of Sasha, and your life together, give you some peace in the coming days.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss.

You should know that you are not alone. All of us who have shared our lives with furry friends have unfortunately gone through this, too. Most of us, more than once. It is the most difficult part of sharing our lives with them, and making them part of our families. I hope that, in time, you will remember the good times so much more than the difficult end time.

My thoughts are with you.
 
I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Please know that even though I don't know you will I'm here for you and I'm sure everyone else is too. We will never let you be alone.
 
sending prayers your way, soo sorry to hear about your lose, dong are probably one of the one animals that truly do bond to us.. their pretty special creatures. Angels with tails.
<3

I truly hope for the best for you! where all here if you need us, remember that. :eek:

sincerely, Justine. xxoo
 
This made me cry.. I am sure glad you were there for her to hold her in your loving, safe arms as she passed.. She must have known and that is why she ran to you. That just makes my heart ache.. Dogs are so amazing. I lost my Great Dane to cancer, and he also passed in my arms.. So this hits me hard... Sending you WARM hugs..... xx
 
I offer my warm thoughts and tears for your loss;
we on this forum are all animal lovers, and we know this pain you are going through.
It never gets easier, but it is worth it to be able to have our lives so enriched by an animal's presence, brief though it may be.
*hug*
 
I am so sorry to hear this. I know that no matter what is said here, it won't really help your broken heart. I know this. I just want you to know that I think Sasha was really really lucky to have you in her life.

It is good that you are young, there will be alot of very very lucky animals in the future who will be so blessed that you loved them......you are one of the very best keepers I have never met.
 
Thanks everyone for the support. It does mean a lot to me. I'm just trying to stay busy right now and get out of the apartment. I don't think the pain will really ever subside, but over time, I hope I can get better at coping with it.
 
So sorry for your loss.....it's the hardest part about owning pets....they learn their life lessons so well that they move on before we do......
