We wrote this for a posting we were going to do tomorrow, but now after reading Praline's blog, I wanted to go ahead and post this today. Miss Praline has told her Mom that this may be her last Sunday. Praline has had the "the talk" with her Mom and she may be leaving us to go become an Angel and be with all the others who have come before. Please take today and go by and give Miss Praline your thoughts and leave some comforting words for her Mom Paula. Our eyes are all leaky Miss Praline, we have known you for many many years now and the heaviness in our hearts is strong. Peaceful journeys, until we meet again.****
Miss Praline is not eating well and she was diagnosed recently with a tumor near her spleen or stomach which is not operable. Please keep her and her sweet Mom Paula in your purrs and purrayers.
Also our good friends Eric and Flynn's Mom Jackie was recently diagnosed with the "C" word, and she will be undergoing an operation very soon. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers as she heals and mends.
Last week I wrote my thoughts in a posting called In the Arms of an Angel. I think each of us has had that special "heart kitty" come into our lives and give us the care and comfort we need. Our fur babies help us transition through our lives and we can find great comfort in what they give and what we receive from them. May Praline and Eric and Flynn comfort and be comforted by their pawrents, we love you guys and all of you are in our purrayers.
In the arms of an Angel, far away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie
In the arms of an Angel; may you find some comfort here
Abby and Mom, what a beautiful post. Mom and I are feeling very sad about Miss Praline. We do so hope she can rally for a little bit, but if it is her angel time, then her friends must let her go, as well as her dear Mom letting her go.
ReplyDeleteI am purring also for Jackie. May she have the very best surgeon, and may her outcome be the best.
My heart hurts so much for Sweet Praline and her Mom. I am purring so hard for Eric and Flynn's Mom too. I am sad beyond words.
ReplyDeleteWe hurt so bad for Sweet Praline and her mama they are both very much in our thoughts and prayers. We are also thinking of and praying for Eric and Flynn's mama. Hugs and nose kisses
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful post. We are so sad and leaky eyed about Praline but we know Sniffie will take good care of her at the Bridge. We're also purring loud and hard for Eric and Flynn's Mom.

I am broken hearted for Sweet Praline and her family. Totally broken hearted. I know they hurt, her pawrents and I send all my love at this terrible time.
ReplyDeleteI will go see Eric and Flynn's mama too.
Thank you for posting this, Abby. We are so sad about Sweet Praline. We hoped she would be around a little longer but it doesn't seem like that is the case. We know how hard this is on her mom and we wish we could do something to ease her pain. We love Praline so much.
ReplyDeleteWe are purring very hard for Eric and Flynn's mum and we hope she will be okay.
We do not know Praline well because we're new to the cat blogosphere, but we do not like to hear of kitties who are sick. We are purring for kitties and kitty bloggers who need good energy.
ReplyDeleteAbby and mum that is a lovely post for Paula and her darling Praline -it must be a very bitter sweet weekend for her.
ReplyDeleteWe are also thinking about Jackie, Eric & Flynn's mum who will be having surgery quite soon and also their dad who must be so upset. They were our first friends when we started to blog.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
Me and Charlie went to beautiful Miss Praline's blog when we read her latest situation over at CB. We are so sad - and so heartbroken for her mum and family - that this beautiful kitty may be leaving us soon. :-(
ReplyDeleteWe continue to purr and pray for Eric and Flynn's mum.
Take care

Abby, thank you so much for the wonderful, comforting post. If things go as planned, I will probably cross the bridge tomorrow. I love the CB and I know they will take care of my mom once I'm gone!
ReplyDeleteWho knows? I may just send another little kitten her way to comfort her!

ReplyDeleteOh Abby, what can we say? Our mum was in tears when she read your beautiful post. Thank you so much for thinking of her.
ReplyDeleteWe are sad that it is time for our dear friend Praline to go to The Bridge, but we know once she is there she will be whole again. We are thinking of her mom Paula who had to make the most difficult, but most loving decision for Praline and will keep them both in our thoughts.

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful post, Abby. We love Praline and Mom Paula so much, and are so broken hearted for them. Praline's diagnosis was pretty much identical to that of our Angel Maggie, who went to the Bridge about a month ago. So we have been purring and praying especially hard for them, and we are just so, so sad,
ReplyDeleteWe are praying and purring for Eric and Flynn's mom, too.
Dear Abby and Mommy,
