My Baby, My Love, My World. Now what can i say about my beautiful baby boy, the best child in the world to me. Also the best greyhound.Ginger didn't like to be made a fuss of, oh but he was. This Christmas was painful as i missed him terribly, but i thought to my self it was best he had gone to sleep.I had to put him to sleep, well it was the best thing to do for him, i could of thought of myself and made him stay and amputate that poorly leg but i wouldn't of done that to him. Ginger's leg started while he was living in the kennels where i worked, and my boss was worried about him, we took him to a vet who said to go and see her the next day but she was sure it was bone cancer in the upper leg, i was devasted and cried hopelessly knowing he was in pain.The next day it was confirmed he had the awful C word but she said he wasn't hurting much which relieved me a little more, but the hurt was killing me.Two Weeks passed and we took him back to vets and she said there was much progress and there was a possibilitie that it was clearing.I could of laughed at that stupid C word. Just to make sure she asked us to go and see her in a few days. She gave him some Tablets that would hopefully make him better, and they seemed to work, well for so long.When he got better me and my father drover to the humberbridge and ginger had the time of his life, well thruth being known we all did.Many nights after that i thought it was time i let him sleep by his self so i went upstairs to bed as i slept on the couch with him.Around 12.30 i heard ginger whimpering so i ran down stairs to find him trying to get up but as he tried his back legs give way, i screamed of my dad to help me and told him to get pillows and some water for ginger, i calmed ginger down and we rang the emergency vet in beverly where we had been taking him.Gingers vet wasn't in and there was a male who was very hard to understand and asked us again to come back in the morning when our vet was there. The next morning when i woke laid next to him i sang his favourite song that i sang everynight to him before he fell to sleep in my arms, the rose by Bette Midler. And something told me this was the last time i'd sing it to him. As we got ready to go i took him to toilet and found he couldn't balance on three legs, i sat on the floor and sobbed and he looked at me scared.It was great difficulty getting him into the car as he was such a big greyhound. As we got there the vet said it was the best thing to do to put him to sleep and i said fairwell to my little angel, how he fell into my arms was so painful and he just laid there and he took his last breath and i sang in a hushed tone The Rose. and whispered ill see you soon my darling angel..x

hello sweetie..x
Hello my darling boy, i hope you are missing me as much as i am you, i thought about many things today and they all involved you..xx i Went to watch a film called Marley and me at the weekend and it reminded me of you at the end..x love you now and forever,Mummy..x
I stood by your bed last night,
I came to have a peep.
I could see that your were crying,
You found it hard to sleep.
I whined to you softly
As you brushed away a tear,
"It's me, I haven't left you,
I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."
I was close to you at breakfast,
I watched you pour the tea,
You were thinking of the many times,
Your hands reached down to me.
I was with you at the shops today,
Your arms were getting sore.
I longed to take your parcels,
I wish I could do more.
I was with you at the grave today,
You tend it with such care.
I want to re-assure you,
That I am not laying there.
I walked with you towards the house,
As you fumbled for your key.
I gently put my paw on you,
I smiled and said "It's me."
You looked so very tired,
And sank into your chair,
I tried so hard to let you know,
That I was standing there.
It's possible for me,
To be so near you every day.
To say to you with certainty,
"I never went away."
You sat there very quietly,
Then smiled, I think you knew...
In the stillness of that evening,
I was very close to you.
The day is over...
I smile and watch you yawning,
And say, "Good-night, God Bless,
I'll see you in the morning."
And when the time is right for you,
To cross the brief divide,
I'll rush across to greet you,
And we'll stand, side by side.
I have so many things to show you,
There is so much for you to see.
Be patient, live your journey out..
Then come home to be with me.

WHEN TOMORROW STARTS WITHOUT ME
When tomorrow starts without me,
And I'm not there to see;
The sun will rise and find your eyes
All filled with tears for me.
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today,
Remembering how I'd lay my head
In your lap that special way.
I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without me.
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name
And petted me with her hand.
She said my place was ready,
In Heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind
All those I dearly love.
But, as I turned to heel away,
A tear fell from my eye,
For all my life I never thought
That I would have to die.
I had so much to live for,
So many sits and downs to do,
It seemed almost impossible,
That I was leaving you.
I thought about our lives together,
I know you must be sad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
And all the fun we had.
Remember how I'd nudge your hand,
And poke you with my nose?
The frisbee I would gladly chase,
The bad guy, I'd "bark and hold".
If I could relive yesterday,
Just even for awhile,
I'd wag my tail and kiss you,
Just so I could see you smile.
But, then I fully realized,
That this could never be;
For emptiness and memories
Will take the place of me.
And when I thought of treats and toys,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you and when I did,
My dog-heart filled with sorrow.
But then I walked through Heaven's gate,
And felt so much at home;
As God looked down and smiled at me,
From His beautiful golden throne.
He said, "This is eternity,
And now we welcome you,
Today your life on earth is past,
But here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
But today will always last;
For you see, each days's the same day,
There's no longing for the past.
Now you have been so faithful,
So trusting, loyal and true;
Though there were times you did things,
You knew you shouldn't do.
But good dogs are forgiven,
And now at last you're free;
So won't you sit here by my side,
And wait right here with me?"
So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart.
For every time you think of me,
Ill be right there in your heart.
