My Bedtime Buddies

The last stuffies of: (l to r) Blaze, Chance, Fiona and Zappa
 

These are my bedtime buddies.  Each stuffie is one of the last toys that the four pups, Blaze, Chance, Fiona and Zappa played with before they died.  

So I hold them in just that order across my chest and fall asleep with them in my arms.  They bring me comfort.

For a long time I couldn't sleep without them in that position.  These stuffies did a great deal to help with my grief.  I talked to them like they were the dogs.  

While now it's not necessary to sleep with them every night, I still do occasionally, they are always on the bed next to me.  They still bring me comfort, just by being there. 

Do you have a favorite doggie stuffie?

  2. The OP Pack: These stuffies were all at the end of the dogs lives, which is the only reason they survived. It is nice to find something that brings comfort
