It is with a heavy heart that I have to inform you all that Peewee's Journey have come to a end. Peewee got his wings early this morning around 3:30. I will forever Miss my Peewee.

I was sitting by his side and holding his hand and telling him how much I loved him when he took his last breath.

My Journey is over now, and my new life has begun, I will forever love my Peewee and I will forever miss him. For it was Peewee who made me the women I am today, and for that I am forever grateful he was the best part of me and I know that he wouldn't want me to sit around and stew in my pain and heartache. I will face each and every challenge with a brave new face as I face this new life without the love of my life.

For all of you just starting this Journey my heart goes out to you, and for those of you that have been facing this Journey for sometime Remember to bend in the wind, and for those that have come to the end of your Journey My heart is heavy for you. This group has been a very strong teaching tool, as well as a loving support group.

I thank you all for loving me through my Journey. I will come back from time to time to see how everyone is doing So for now this LadyPeewee saying goodnight.

LadyPeewee and Peewee Partners for ever

    Lady Peewee, please accept my sincere condolencees on your great loss. So many of us knwo exactly how you're feeling at this moment. I know I felt lost for a long time and still do from time to time. The picture of you and Peewee is something you'll treasure forever. After I lost Charles I had one of his pictures enlarged and framed and I've kept it on the table between our chairs since then. It makes me feel like he's still here. Take care of yourself, rest when you can and come back and visit with us when you feel like doing so.

    Your post is so heartfelt and written beautifully. I am relatively new here and my DH is in early to mid-stage. Your strength has given me hope that I can be the caretaker that you have been.

    I am so deeply sorry for your loss - the picture of you and your husband is wonderful. Thank you for sharing.

    Dear Lady Peewee, I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved Peewee I have followed your story with him for these past few years and I know that you loved him truly and you did everything you could to care for him and keep him safe. I know this is such a sad day for you and how much you hurt. I pray that God would be with you and you can find peace and solace in the days ahead knowing that because of you he was well taken care of and you did the best that you could. Take some time to grieve but eventually step out into the world I know he would want you to do that. God's blessing to you as you start a whole new life and a whole new journey without the love of your life. Richard
