This is the hardest post I have ever had to write. They called this morning and told me that Sara had past away overnight. I will write a tribute to my girl when I am more together. Right now there is such a hole in my heart. Me and my sister went to see her. I just had to see my little girl one more time and give her a kiss. I'm still in shock that she is gone.

Thank you all so much for your prayers, thoughts and vines yesterday. I can't express how much they meant to me. Although here at LL there may be different opinions, views etc. we all come together when there is a crisis. We are family and I feel the love. Thank you so much again. I don't know what I'd do without you.

I will continue to help out where I can and will never leave this site. I appreciate each and everyone of you.

Re: Sara is at the bridge

Oh Jan I'm so sorry. You gave her little body every chance you could but she needed to rest. My heart aches for you on this very sad day. I will always remember her as the beautiful Princess Sara. ((((((Jan)))))) You are family and we all are crying with you today. ♡♡♡
 
(((Jan))) (((Sara))) I am in tears. I am so sorry for your loss. She had the most angelic face. My heart is breaking for the pain you are in.

What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more sound, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you are gone, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget.

wings_cat Fry free precious SARA, land softly.
 
((((((((((Jan)))))))))) I am so sorry, but Sara is free and out of pain. You were the best bean to her, always placing her first. Your angel is watching over you from the Bridge.

Oh Jan, no words can convey the sadness in my heart. What a beautiful, beautiful girl.

May the love of those close to you help ease the pain.

I knew I shouldn't read this while at work - sitting in my cube crying for you and your baby.
 
((((((JAN))))))

I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your precious Sara, know that she is no longer in pain and is in a better place.
 
Jan,

I am so very, very sorry to read this. Sara is a sweet, special angel, and very lucky to have you as her bean. Our prayers continue to be with you.

I am so sorry to read this today and the tears are flowing for you Jan. Sweet Sara is running free and no longer in pain. I know that doesn't help a lot, but know that we are all here for you and praying for you and Sara.

(((((Jan)))))
 
((Jan))
My heart is breaking for you today.
I have been checking all morning praying for better news.
I am so sorry that your beautiful Sara has crossed the bridge.
You did everything you could for her and your sweet girl knew when it was time.

Fly free sweet Sara. Soft landings.
Forever in our hearts.

Fly Free Sweet Sara wings_cat rb_icon many friends await you :sad:
 
((((((((Jan)))))))) My heart is broken. I know the pain you are feeling and wish I could lift it. I wish I could give you a real hug. If love was enough Jan, she would have lived forever. Sara knew unconditional love and she takes that love with her. I truly believe they are with us in spirit always. They are close. Fly free sweet Sara.

Keeping you close to my heart. We are family and hurt with you. When Maverick got his wings, I thought I would run and hide but the condolences on Lantus Land kept my feet on the ground. I still have it bookmarked. These especially gave me comfort.

THE EULOGY
Look not where I was
For I am not there
My spirit is free
I am everywhere

In the air that you breathe
In the sounds that you hear
Don't cry for me Mom
My spirit is near

I'll watch for you
From the other side
I'll be the one running
New friends by my side

Smile at my memory
Remember in your heart
This isn't the end
It's a brand new start
-----
I am standing upon the seashore. A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength. I stand and watch her until at length she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other.

Then someone at my side says: "There, she is gone!"

"Gone where?"

Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large in mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my side and she is just as able to bear the load of living freight to her destined port.

Her diminished size is in me, not in her. And just at the moment when someone at my side says: "there, she is gone!" There are other eyes watching her coming and other voices ready to take up the glad should: "Here she comes!"
 
(((((Jan)))))) Oh Jan - I realize that there are really no words that can comfort you , but I am soo sorry for your loss. You loved each other very much.
 
We are so very sorry to read about the loss of your beloved Sara. She will be waiting to greet you one day at the bridge, keeping wonderful company with all who have gone ahead. Take good care of yourself in these sad days. rb_icon
 
Jan - I am so sorry for your loss. There simply are not words to express the sorrow that I feel. There have been some wonderful thoughts expressed her today, eulogies and poems, that all express what I feel in my heart. May Sara's memory comfort you. She will always be near, they always are. Fly free sweet Sara. wings_cat


I also like this poem as well, we will never forget you Sara. I am happy though that you are now free of pain and sorrow, and illness. May there be comfort there for your bean.

MISS ME, BUT LET ME GO

When I come to the end of the road
and the sun has set for me,

I want no rites in a gloom filled room
Why cry for a soul set free!

Miss me a little, but not for long,
And not with your head bowed low,

Remember the love the we once shared,
Miss me, but let me go!

For this a journey we all must take,
and each must go alone,

It is all a part of the Master's plan
A step in the road to home.

When you are lonely and sick of heart
Go to the friends we know,

And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds.
Miss me, but let me go!

oh my heart breaks for you.
Fly free sweet Sara.

And God asked the feline spirit
Are you ready to come home?
Oh, yes, quite so, replied the precious soul
And, as a cat, you know I am most able
To decide anything for myself.

Are you coming then? asked God.
Soon, replied the whiskered angel
But I must come slowly
For my human friends are troubled
For you see, they need me, quite certainly.

But don't they understand? asked God
That you'll never leave them?
That your souls are intertwined. For all eternity?
That nothing is created or destroyed?
It just is....forever and ever and ever.

Eventually they will understand,
Replied the glorious cat
For I will whisper into their hearts
That I am always with them
I just am....forever and ever and ever.

I'm so, so sorry. The words I have are completely inadequate. Sara will be missed by us all. You are just going to have to hang around because you are family and we don't let go easily.

Fly free little girl and land softly. The ones we dearly love and miss are there to greet you and keep you safe until you are reunited with your bean.
 
I am so sorry for your loss, Jan. It is so hard to lose our babies, especially after taking care of them when they were sick. Sara is at peace now and she will always be in your heart. I hope in time your memories will ease your pain.

Think of how much Sara gave you, what a joy she was, how much she enriched your life, how much Love you shared! How lucky you were to have had her for so long, but alas, it is never long enough!
I know how you feel having lost my civvie boy Copper in May...
But he has shown me in so many ways that he is around me--I found another feather by the side door today, that's 8 he has sent me to know he is still around us.
Sara will show you too--LOve Never Dies, it goes on & on..
Lighting a candle for Sara to light the way to the Bridge..Fly Free Sara & land softly.
May you find comfort in the Love & Memories of your sweet girl.

Dear Jan,
I am so sorry that it was Sara's time to say farewell. I know what a joy she was to you and how much you will miss your beautiful kitty. But there is compassion and love waiting for her at the Bridge, where our GAs are gathering this evening to welcome Sara. She is well again and free of affliction and she is watching over you and her family and sending you her thanks and her love. Sara will always be there for you until you meet again. And Lantus Land will always be here for you. We all share your grief.

Fly free, beautiful Sara, on your new golden wings. We are lighting a candle to guide you tonight.

In deepest sympathy,

Ella & Edward, Rusty, and Stu (GA)
