| ~Annie in early May~ |
A twinge in my heart returned this morning when I woke up to find my beautiful Annie sleeping by herself in a 'lonely' part of the house. We got her up to her feet and carried her outside. She stood for several minutes before she dutifully did what she knew we were asking her too. Back inside and onto a warm bed Annie has fallen into a deep sleep. Her breathing is heavy. Occasionally she coughs, and her feet and face will twitch, sometimes there is movement of her tail. Then silence as her sleep peacefully continues. A very dear friend of mine and I call times like this, "angel watch." Are Annie's angels now nearby watching over her and waiting for her time to come when they will take her to that unseen place? Does Anne see that unseen place where all those who have gone before her are waiting for her to join them? Just as I always do, I am hoping that they and Annie will decide that heaven can wait a little longer.
Angels...

ReplyDeleteHugs to you all, Angels hovering, beautiful thought, and if she is resting, and in no pain, with her family all close by ,Annie is truly in the best place right now. She will let you know if that changes, maybe finding that quiet place alone is an indication. and your heart will be heavy as you wait the day out. Fondest thoughts, Jean.
ReplyDeleteIt's such a hard time. Watching and having to decide. Annie will let you know though.

We've never heard of Angel Watch before...but that is exactly what this time is. So sadly, we have been there before, but each time is so unique. We wish you the time you both deserve, a love that envelopes you, and soft kleenex.
