Whisper's song.. My Elusive Dream

  Once again I’m writing to you with very sad news… I will post the note that I received today from MissyEcho as follows…

Hi Cheryle dear... I write this note in tears.. a sense of melancholy... that our sweet Whisper will be helped to take his journey on Monday.. I am considering going to Jan's on Sunday to say goodbye to him..

  Luv you

MissyEcho

Whisper is the last of MissyEcho’s 'Megan' Furbabies that has not gone to the Bridge. MissyEcho called me today & we talked for a little while & she had to go to work. She told me that Whisper is 13 years old & has had problems with his feet for quit some time & also other problems. His owner is going on vacation & does not think that he would make it until she gets back…and does not want to leave him in his condition knowing that he could slip away with out her being with him. This is a very wonderful Lady that he lives with & she truly cares for her Furkids deeply. She also owns 2 other Furkids of MissyEcho’s…Liric & Cote. Liric is one of my Fraser’s kids.

Please light your candles & pray for Whisper for a gentle journey to the Bridge so he may join all of our other beautiful Fur Angels. I pray he will be met by his Lovely Mother Megan, whom I picture with Beautiful Blue wings to lift him up on to her soft cloud…and then MissyEcho you will truly have another connection to that Beautiful place we also call Heaven.

All my prayers are with you & my candles are burning MissyEcho, Jan  & Whisper. Please give Jan & Whisper a big Hug from me & ask Whisper to greet all my special Angles for me & my Dear Daddy.

Luv you,

Cheryle

Thanx  dear Cheryle, for writing this note. This evening @ work, I walked thru the memories of Whisper's first days here with me, what a rough time those first three weeks.... one of his sisters, little Kelly slipping across to the Bridge from my arms @ 2 weeks.  Then as he & the other 4 babies grew, Whisper was the only one who was going to stay in size to show.... the other puppies went off to begin their lives as they were intended  to.... Whisper's sister, Obie, to our dear friend Jan.. who would one day also own Whisper.  I really thot a long time about his name... and one evening coming home from work.... 'My Elusive  Dream'... and I 'knew' it was perfect..  Candlochen's Elusive Dream.
 
Whisper was the first sheltie that I actually bred that I took in the show ring .  After a probably a year of showing, I recognized that his head was going to keep him from being an asset to the breed.  I told Jan, who was @ the dog show with me when I made the decision, That I would be searching for a home for him.  By the time I arrived home, there was a message on my machine that she wanted him {smile}.   I was thrilled.. now Whisper would get to go live with his sister. .and have a fantasic career in the performing arts.. obedience, & agility..
 
We have known for some time. that Whisper's time here, was limited.. he is no longer able to get up and down the step from Jan's deck.. and I am guessing that he is in a significant amount of pain.   I  plan to go Sunday to talk to him. .and wish him a gentle journey.
 
Thanx again soo much, Cheryle for this note.. the midi fits soo well too {in the arms of an angel.. was on the original e-mail} ......I know.. Whisper no longer lives here.. but.. he will be always my beloved boy.
 
Please understand if it takes me a bit to get back to answering notes.
 
Gentle hugs to all.....
Tearfully...

Thanx soo much Anna, dear.. this somehow 'feels' like the end of a chapter... my Megan's babies all together again...

MissyEcho, we all understand over here.... and being the last from his litter..
well that ends it on this earth for ever... but he will see his family at the
Bridge.. and all our furkids who are there... and together with them guard the
people and friends they loved and left here....

Henny


7/7 Thanx, Henny.. I couldn't sleep...spent the night ... walking memory lane

7/7

MissyEcho,

 
My prayers and thoughts will be with Whisper as he makes his journey, crossing the Rainbow Bridge to a place where there will be no pain and youthful feelings are the way of life. There are tennis balls everywhere and chasing the stars in the universe so as to polish them with their fairy dust polish is one of their new delights.
 
 My thoughts are also there with Jan who I am sure does not welcome this responsibility that she has, however, I am sure that she recognizes that it is best for him. It is her kindness and love for him that makes it possible for her to think of his needs first and not her own..
 
Tom {this had 'ol Shep' midi file on it}
 
Whisper will be in my thoughts and prayers.........such beauty is about to grace Rainbow Bridge!
Chicadee
 
Wow, Tom,
 
I am once again in awe... I know that I have not mentioned this, but Jan is a tennis teacher!.. Whisper loved for tennis balls <G>.. when he was young and able.. Jan is such an awesome mom.. I am sooo lucky that she has now a total of 4 of my babies.. .Obie already @ the Bridge.. Whisper, and the two younger ones....she gives each one of them a real work to do, and I am soo thankful that she has my kids.  Cote is an Echo son.. that almost.. went to the wrong home.. and now.. he is her most titled dog!.... besides being such a sweetie.
 
You are soo right regarding Jan putting Whisper's needs first.. I am soo thankful I can trust her to put the babies first.
 
Thanx sooo much for caring. It means the world to me, as I said to Henny. tho Whisper doesn't live with me now. .there is a part of my heart that goes with every furbaby I help to bring into this world.. whether they ultimately spend their life here or somewhere else..
 
Gentle  hugs
Missyecho

Wow!!!... Chickadee.. you describe so well .. exactly how I imagine Whisper
.. thanx.. soo much!!.. Cheryle's stationery is sooo beautiful, she did such
a beautiful work on this page...

Cheryle... prayers are on there way and I will light a candle too.

I have lit my candle and I'm praying for a gentle passing to the Bridge for Whisper.

Good Evening, dear Friends,
 
I was not able to go to see Whisper today due to Jan's day not allowing it....I do understand that for what ever reason.. it isn't 'meant' to be'...however I did request that she save a bit of his hair for me.... the appointment is scheduled for 10AM tomorrow morning...
 
So, Please light your candles for our beloved Whisper for tomorrow morning.. that his journey is a gentle one..
I somehow don't have a lot of words.... sleep softly, as you gain your wings, free of pain and disability, sweet Whisper.. I know.. your mommy Megan will indeed lift you up {yes. .I 'see' them as as beautiful blue wings too, Cheryle, dear}....
 
Sweet dreams my boy.. thanx for the memories. My Whisper.. My Elusive Dream.. I love you!
Your other Mom, MissyEcho

Anna and the petting zoo
Oh, Cheryle,
 Thanx soo much!!! this is soo beautiful!!!! I just now came home from work to be on call and the message was on my answering machine that Whisper indeed had a gentle journey.....he has joined his beautiful mommy, Megan, and the other half of his brace team.. his sister, Obie, who left us almost exactly 3 years ago...  after we got back from Nationals, as well has my soulmate, his half sister Echo...
 
With tears streaming down my cheeks.. thanx sooo much for this beautiful vision of Whisper with his wings...
 
Enjoy the Bridge!!.. find a way to let me know you are still near, my boy! I love you! 
 
Gentle hugs,
MissyEcho

 

MissyEcho,
 
I just want you to know that Whisper is in my thoughts as he took that mighty adventure to the bridge. He is now at peace with no more pain and having a wonderful time with all of the bridge kids that are already there...As you and I talked the other day it was time to let go...This is probably the greatest love a person can have, that of letting go so they do not hurt any more...Yes, Jan misses him, but there should be a peace in her heart for what she has done..
 
Tom

 

At least this way you will remember mainly good things about whisper. I know that this parting is hard for you. I will light a candle for you and one for whisper tonight. Prayers have been, and will continue to go up for a peaceful rise to the rainbow bridge! (((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))))))
