Three weeks ago tonight I lost my Gus to a cancerous tumor and complications, not his diabetes. I just feel so lost without him. I feel like I am forgetting to do something. I still watch the clock for evening feeding & testing. I still wake up early in the morning. I haven't had a good night's rest since I lost him. There is such a huge void. Having a sugar baby really creates that bond that only a sugar mom/dad would understand because your life essentially evolves around them and their needs. I've lost many dogs in my life, and it had only been 7 months since I lost Gus's "brother" to old age, and tumor.
I found a 6 yr old schnauzer in an area shelter that was owner surrender. I haven't gone to check her out because I get to thinking about the breed and diabetes and how they are so prone to it. I guess I will know when time is right for another dog, but for now, I'm trying not to rush it and trying to let my heart heal. But,it's so hard. Losing 2 furbabies so close together in time has been difficult.
It is hard to break the habit of coming here to this forum, as I've done so daily for almost 3 years. I still read from time to time,but tonight, I felt the need to post.
