My Email To Animal Hospital of Soquel

My email to Animal Hospital of Soquel...




Good morning,
I've been receiving messages about appointments for Whiskey, Brendan Leung's kitty. Whiskey is now living with a friend in a different area. Unfortunately her daddy (my sweetheart Brendan), was killed in a tragic car accident 9 months ago. I know how much Brendan appreciated all of the staff and vets that took care of his kitty Jackson who died April 2017 and his kitty Whiskey girl.


I also want to thank you personally for providing such an excellent service to our little family.


Sincerely, Wendy McMullen





Dearest Wendy- words can't begin to describe the sadness we all feel hearing this news. Please, know we are thinking about you all even though some time has passed since the tragic loss of sweet Brendan. Let us know if there is anything we can do for you, your family or for Whiskey.

Thank you so much for sharing your story.

Sincerely,

The Entire Staff at Animal Hospital of Soquel

Our Loved Ones in Spirit WANT to be remembered

Grief can be prolonged if it's not shared
Crying is like a rainbow bridge., it lights up two worlds.
Grief is the soul crying so tears are very important.
Allow People time to grieve. Allow them to talk. Don't shut them off.
We have too many people who don't want others to grieve & that's dangerous.
Suppression is not good for anyone.
Love like Life Can Never Die
Our loved ones in spirit WANT to be remembered.

Response to Post on Modern Loss----The Sound of Grief

I lost my beautiful sweetheart Brendan, 9 months ago as well. It was horrible when I was speaking on the phone to the nurse calling me about Brendan's accident. Then screaming for his friends to pick me up asap and take me to the hospital because I couldn't drive myself . Then the agonizing animalistic scream I let out when the surgeon came in and said Brendan would not survive.

 Two days later another surgeon came in and said he had declared my comatose boyfriend brain dead and therefore pronounced him dead. I tried to hold it together in front of his entire extended family but I couldn't---another howl of excruciating pain. Then my final goodbye before they took his body to harvest his organs for donation. He looked like a beautiful prince on that hospital bed. But the surgeons were waiting outside to harvest his organs. 

Leaving Brendan was the most unbearable thing I've ever gone through. Sobbing I told him, "I will never forget you, I will always love you for the rest of my life."

No one teaches us in school what death is, what grief is. I have a Master's Degree but never knew what this kind of pain felt like! Wasn't prepared for it. Never majored in it......YES, I've let out many animal Howls of sheering pain. I have had no control over it. I don't know if it helps because mine seems like a reflex that I can't control.
