Linda and Bear Man

Bear Man will cross the bridge at 1:30 p.m. today. His last days have been good ones. He is resting beside his beloved Teddy right now. I am grateful that he is going in comfort, not in pain. The vet is coming to the house, and Bear will be in his own bed when he goes.

Pat said in her condo today that "LOVE transcends the trials of this Earth plane.....all will be well". Please send vines to Bear Man for a peaceful crossing.
 
Linda - I am so sorry - but I also know you make this final gesture for Bear man out of love, and commitment to him. It is truly the kindest gift. You are one incredible bean, Bear Man could not have had anyone finer. Be at peace knowing that you have done well. He will always be with you, always.

Bear man - my candle is lit for you - I will help guide the way. I will never forget you - and love you forever. ~~ Mannie.
 
(((Linda))) Safe passing to our dear, sweet Bear Man. Tears are flowing here and my heart is aching for you Linda. I know that is the best decision you could make for your wonderful friend and companion.

My dear Bear Man....I will also lite a candle for you to help guide your way across the bridge. My beanz droolers and her udder kitties will be on the other side waiting for you to show you the ropes. I'm sure Stu, Latte, Boomer, and all de udder frienz will be there too. Safe passage my dear frienz...I will miss you............Spot
 
Dear Bear Man....We love you so....you never said good bye to us all last night.

You said "Farewell my friends, till we meet again" and you hugged and kissed us all.

We will miss you terribly...but we know that you will be free of pain and worries...you will be free!
We cry selfishly because we will be here, without you. But we know that you will be happy when you
cross the bridge and for that we feel some consolation. Our love goes with you dear one...
And so, we send you on your way...and we say Farewell, beautiful Bear Man...until we meet again.....
((((((((((Bear Man))))))))))


((Dear Linda))...we will light a candle for Bear man and send our love to you today....crying for you both....thinking of you...
We are with you now...bless you for all you have done for him and hugs to you and Teddy and Emily
 
(((Linda)))

The candles in LL will be a beacon to light Bear's way and will challenge the stars for their pure bright light. Thank you for sharing Bear with us. I so value the privilege of having gotten to know your heroic boy. He has persevered so much. This final decision is made with so much love and respect and dignity that you are as much of a hero as your Bear. He will be at the Bridge where he can see the butterflies he will no doubt play with. He will see old friends and new who we cherish dearly and who will be there waiting with him until we join them. He will not be alone and he will be loved and remembered always.

Your photo of him sitting by the screened window facing the flowers is one that I will keep in my heart.

ETA: There is one very bright star that has joined the heavens today. Fly free Bear Man. Your work here is done. There is only sunlight and flowers and butterflies and friends that await you.

Also ETA: Ronnie is at work but wanted you to know her heart is with you. She said to let you know there are tears, love, and comfort being sent your way.

A candle has been lit.
 
I am so sorry Linda. It doesn't matter how much time we have with our loved ones, its never enough. Sending prayers for a peaceful crossing to the Rainbow Bridge where Bear Man will be met by our loved ones that have gone on before.
 
So sorry Bears time has come ... At least he will be at home, where he is comfortable ... We will light a candle for him and send prayers for a peaceful passing ... Fly Free Bear man ...
 
((Linda)) ((Bear Man))
It is so hard to type with tears streaming down my face.
You are an incredible mom to all of your furbabies and are such
a wonderful friend.
My heart is breaking right now.
You listened to your Man and respect his wishes to fly free.
I will be thinking of you and will light a candle for Bear Man
for a safe and peaceful crossing today. There will be a long line of our GA's waiting to
greet him and welcome.

Fly free sweet and loving Bear Man. We will always hold you in our hearts.
 
(((Linda))) I am so very sorry. Take comfort in knowing you did everything you could possibly do to give Bear Man a wonderful life.
Bear will have so many great friends waiting for him.

Safe travels sweet Bear Man....you will be missed but will live forever in our hearts.

I can't type through the tears, I'm glad Bear is safe and happy and comfortable for his next journey. It's wonderful that he can be home with you and Teddy.

Fly free Bear Man, you will be missed by those who are still here, and you will be welcomed by those who have gone before!

((Linda)) may you be at peace too, you have made the final decision with love.
 
(((Linda))) you have always done the best for dear Bear Man. I'm glad he will be with Teddy and at home when he crosses. My heart is breaking for you. You both were already here when we joined and through your stories I've come to know Bear Man and his wonderful babysitter Teddy.

Linda, you and Bear fought so bravely for so long and he was so lucky to have you. Thanks for having the strength and courage to give him your final gift.

Because he wishes for the cloths of heaven, my dear, you weave them for him, and you spread them beneath his feet. You are brave.

I love Bearman and you. There will be candles and tears.

Our deepest sorrow for you on this day but you are giving him the greatest gift that you can and he will always know your love. Gentle Journey, dear sweet Bear.
 
(((Linda))) tears are streaming down my face writing this. You have given Bear Man such a wonderful life, take comfort in that. It is so hard to lose a furbaby. I am glad the vet is coming to the house and he can be in his bed. Will be thinking of you today. Have a safe passage Bear Man may you now be at peace. Hugs and comfort vines to you Linda!
 
All I can do is offer sympathy and wish you to find strength on this most unwelcome, yet inevitable, day.
We all know that this day will come, for us all, one way or another - the only comfort I ever find in it, for me, is the knowledge that death is just as much a part of life as birth, smiles, tears, good times, bad times...

Strength to you (all) today...
 
Ah, Linda... we love you so.

BearMan, the little angel on earth will join all the other angels.
He will send warm waves of love to comfort you.
He will see you with clear eyes and watch over you.

I love you BearMan, rest easy.
 
Linda, I know your heart is breaking. You have given Bear Man such a warm wonderful loving home and I know you share a special bond. My thoughts will be with you, as you and Teddy and Emily say goodbye to Bear today.

What a safe, loving way to release Bear to the Bridge, at home with those he loves.
 
((((((((((Linda))))))))))((((((((((Bear Man))))))))))

Oh, Linda, I am so sorry that this day has come. My gut is hurting, my heart is hurting, and my heart goes out to you... Many tears from tbp.

Please take comfort in knowing that you went all out, and I mean all out, in all you did for Bear Man.
That he will happy and healthy, running and playing, purring, enjoying sunrays, and seeing.
And that he will be waiting for you at the bridge. He has many friends to keep him company while he waits.

As everyone always says, You Are The Best Mommy.

Fly Free, Sweet Beautiful Prince. Peaceful crossing, Bear Man.
You are beloved by all, and we will miss you terribly.

Until we meet again.

So, so sad.
 
Linda,
I cannot read through all these posts w/o sobbing. Please know that Bearman knows how much you love him and that no one could have loved him more or better than you. And, that he loves you just as much. This final gift you give him is the biggest gift of all, b/c it's all about your love for him and not about what you want.

Bearman,
Happy and peaceful crossing to the bridge. Cosmo is always looking for someone to get into trouble with, so I'm sure he'll meet you and show you around.

love
cyn
 
Tears right now...at work reading this post. Sending prayers to Bear Man and you. You touched our lives and wish him a safe and peaceful journey. God Bless!
 
Oh Linda, I'm so so sorry, my heart is breaking for you. But it is wonderful that Bear will be in his own bed, surrounded by those he loves more than anything in this world. We will light a candle, to light his way, and keep you all close in thoughts and prayers. Fly free, sweet Bear Man. I have a feeling those already at the bridge are already setting up a barstool in anticipation. Hugs to you all.
 
((Linda)) So sorry to hear about Bear :cry: Squishy Merlin and all the LL angels are ready to welcome Bear to the Bridge.
 
So glad his last few days have been good ones. He has had a long, happy life, surrounded by love, and he'll leave feeling secure and peaceful.

Sending him flowers to see and smell, butterflies to chase - they'll be waiting for him:

... and a candle to guide him and help him adjust to the light:

Linda, you have handled this with grace and dignity, I truly admire you for all you do.
 
Our hearts. prayers, & vines go out to you, Linda, and your precious Bear Man. Please know how much we care and empathize with you at this difficult time. Take care. Love - Susan & Lanky
 
Linda,

Your love and selfless devotion to Bear Man has been an inspiration to many. I know you received as much from him as you gave, which makes this goodbye all the more painful. Sending you as many caring, sympathetic thoughts as possible for Bear Man's peaceful transition to the next plane, and to you as you grieve this tremendous loss. There are many kitties waiting to greet him, and I hope you have just as much support here, from Teddy, Emily, and some human folk as well.

I also wanted to share this with you: http://www.pet-loss.net/surviving.shtml
It was very helpful for me to read and reflect on after losing my beloved Cleo last October. The anniversary of her death is this Sunday, and while the pain can be just as intense as it was one year ago, the many memories of wonderful times with her help more and more every day.

Take care.

In deepest sympathy,

Laura
 
I'm just seeing this - and it's so sad to say goodbye to another of our special kitties. So sad.

What a blessing for him to be able to go peacefully and in his own bed with his special mom holding him. They fight so hard and then sometimes just can't fight anymore.

My heart goes out to you, Linda, in your sadness - know that many join with you in tears today. And what a group is waiting to welcome your sweet Bear - there will be happiness there as he joins those who we love so much.

The memories and love will remain with you - holding you in my thoughts and heart.

Emmy & Dude (& Mittsi too)
 
Good By our sweet Bear!
Please visit my Tiger and Molly and tell them I still love them and keep them in my heart!
Ooooo sweet Bear Your You touched our hearts! We love You!
