Oh Randy, I am so terrible sorry for your great loss. You will make it through this I promise but you will never forget your best buddy Rocky either. I lost my mom and 3 days later my sweet Baby Bear, my very first Bernese Mountain Dog that was my best buddy at the time. I thought my whole world had crushed and everything turned dark and gray. But, I made it through and I praise God everyday for loving me and comforting me in that time. He will comfort you also, just ask Him. Praise Him and give Him thanks for making you stronger each new day. We dog lovers will go through this many times in our lives simply because our furry friends just don't live as long as we do but that doesn't mean we won't ever get another one because the pain is so great. The reason we keep loving them and getting more is because of all the days of joy and love that they give us in the short time that they are here on this earth. You'll see your friend again one day so hold onto that thought. God bless.

Please try to not focus on the bad, negative and depressing things in your life right now. I pray that the Lord will open your heart, eyes and mind to see all the beauty that He has provided for us, His children. Try going into the most private place in your home and physically get on your knees and pray to God. Pour out your heart and make your requests known. Sometimes we tend to dwell in negativity and that is what we draw to ourselves. Try to praise God for all the little, beautiful things you see. Try very hard to only focus on something as simple as your shower, the hot water, soap and the ability to smell clean and give God the glory and praise for something so simple that we sometimes take for granted. It works trust me. Be patient, God hears your cries and will help in His time.
