To my sweet sweet girl Brandi
You just don't know how much I miss you here with me. There is not one day since you left, I don't think of you or something silly you had done.
So your nine years old now and I am sure you are having a great time up there in heaven with all the others that have gone to Rainbow bridge.
Happy Birthday my sweet girl and forever in my heart you will stay with me.
My poem I wrote for you.

MY SWEET BRANDI GIRL

A bundle of fur was given to me
and this bundle had touched my heart.
I couldn't believe that she was all mine,
I'll name her Brandi, that was a start.

As the months went by so fast
and seeing Brandi grow each day.
She was so happy, funny and beautiful
I wouldn't of wanted it any other way.

The months went by, then became years for us
and soon Brandi was 7 years old.
Then that terrible day came for us,
"It's Lymphoma Cancer", we both were told.

My life & Rons life changed that day
it was on August 18, 2005.
I told Ron and we both agreed,
we'll do anything to keep Brandi alive.

So we started Brandi on Chemo treatments
8 months of her in full remission.
Brandi has been such a trooper through this,
Now the cancer's back without permission.

Four times she came out of remission
Four times my heart grew sad.
Then my emotions started to flow inside,
first saddness, anger, now mad.

Mad at the fact we did our best
to give Brandi the best of care.
Now she is gone and has left us,
I'm feeling nothing but sad sad despair.

Brandi was such a beautiful girl
with a gentle soul and a huge heart.
And now she has gone to Rainbow Bridge,
and my heart now is torn apart.

I am so blessed that Brandi was mine
how she always had made us smile.
I know my heart cries for Brandi now,
and my broken heart will hurt for a while.

So My Brandi Girl, you already know
that I'm missing you oh so much.
And the worst time for me is the nighttime,
when I can't hug you and feel your touch.

Touching my arm by hitting your paw
for me to rub your body or your pretty face.
You came into the world with dignity,
and you left this world with such grace.

Until we see each other again
Thank you for giving me 7 years of Joy.
And when I'm sad and think of you girl,
I'll just hug your favorite frisbee toy.

Farewell My Sweet Brandi Girl
Be a star and shine down on me.
Forever in our hearts, forever in our souls
Thats where My Brandi will always be.

I love you so much Brandi
Goodbye my Best Friend
Your Mommy

Soft whisper

My best friend spoke to me last night
a soft whisper in my ear.
I woke up and looked around the room,
I was startled, yet I had no fear.

My best friend said that all is fine
Rainbow bridge is so much more.
That there was so much love up there,
even a beautiful ocean shore.

There is fields and fields of green green grass
and the sky has different shades of blue.
There are flowers, mountains, trees and clouds,
everything they said it was, is true.

My best friend whispered in my ear last night
saying "Please don't cry or be sad.
That what was done, had to be done,
for me to live my life now, so be glad".

My best friend said that I did the right thing
an unselfish act on my part.
And that this pain & sadness I feel
will be gone soon from my heart.

I asked my best friend "How could this be
I miss you so much everyday.
That my heart hurts so much for you,
I wish there could of been another way".

My best friend whispered in my ear last night
"You will always be in my heart.
Go on & live and love another,
because we will never really be apart".

My best friend whispered in my ear last night
"it's time for me to go towards the light.
I just wanted to stop & say to you
go on my best friend, I'll be alright.

I carry your unconditional love with me
I have done this from the very start".
I whispered back to my best friend last night,
"I'll always love you with all my heart."

So good-bye my best friend as I looked up at the sky
a shooting star I see in a straight line.
Moving fast across the sky & out of sight,
I whispered,
"Good -bye my best friend, now, I'll be fine".
