I don't have words man. That is a lot to deal with. Things have to look up from here. Hang in there!

Thomas, your cup is full. Keep putting one foot in front of the other is the only way. I wish you peace.

Sorry to hear about all the trials you've been put thru. I'll pray / wish the best for you as you move forward.

Hasn't been a good year for me either, BIL died in Jan, lost our Swissy Levi suddenly in April ( acute leukemia ) , 88 year old MIL fell and broke her leg, another BIL passed last month , just to name a few.

Here's to a better 2020 Thomas

Sorry to hear man... I personally know a dozen guys that have been through that ringer.
Same story with every one of them.
It does get better but it's a long road.

That’s a damn rough row to hoe. I’d offer a clever quip but honestly I’d rather just walk up to you, shake your hand, and pull you into a sincere hug. I won’t insult you by saying this or that but if you need something, I’m here.

I can't find the words to post anything sensible. I continued to read and shake my head and turned my thoughts inward and wondered if I could handle what you have dealt with. I pray for blue skies and calm seas ahead of you. You're a rock, man.

Been a while since I've seen you on here and was hoping you were just busy...I am sorry to read of all the immense losses you've suffered in such a compressed amount of time.

I remember all the wonderful, helpful advice you gave me when I got Cosmo after his first owner passed unexpectedly and he wasn't taking it well...your words got me through that rough time and I was able to have him until the ripe Boxer age of 12. Clara almost made it to 11. So, I definitely understand how hard multiple pet losses can be.

It's been tough enough for me that I found a pet loss support group to try and work through it all. I never considered myself a 'support group' or 'therapy' type person, but it has been a great help. You might want to give that a try...or, at least find someone to talk to, vent/post here, etc. Just make sure you have an avenue to get it all out the photography, music, journaling, etc are also good ways to decompress.

Sending positive thoughts, prayers, good vibes, etc in your direction...hang in there.
