So sorry to hear about your loss - everything else can be replaced except “man’s best friend.” Can’t imagine your grief. I hope all the memories you have of those two pups will give you comfort; I’m sure they had a wonderful life with you and that they are prancing around in heaving right now, being their cute selves & cracking God up with how sweet they are.

[MonicaG]

Amen.

Not a sparrow falls outside the knowledge of Him that made them, Viking2002. Your dogs are in good hands.

There is much comfort to be found in scripture; in various denominations, not so much. If you need to delve further and are looking for a starting point, turn to Romans 8:19-22.

“But I’ll be out here; it’s just that the Devil handed a fiftyish couple a shared midlife crisis they weren’t expecting. At all.”

Prayers for you.

Sometimes God uses hardship in surprising ways - regardless of what caused it. May He do so in your lives.

Oh, Viking, I am so, so sorry to hear about this and the loss of your beloved pets. I’m praying for you right now and hope that you will allow your FR family to help you.

Praying. I’m sorry about your ‘kids’: I understand your grief well.

What part of the country are you in?

[Silentgypsy]

Prayers up. I’m very sorry for your losses.

‘What part of the country are you in?’

He refers to relatives ‘driving down here from
MD and PA - - -’
So, further south than MD - - -

If it was lightning that struck his home, Florida has huge electrical storms - - but maybe also states in-between. . .

He may say soon.

Only have a moment to pop in, but my wife and would like you all to know how overwhelmed we are by everyone's prayers and support. Between our families, the church, the Red Cross, our local community, and not the least of which our FRiends here at Free Republic, it's helped keep us grounded and focused on the blessings we received in the aftermath. It has been and will be a long uphill slog back to normalcy, but we're built like tanks. It's made me realize all the more how much goodness there is still left in America, and how hard we must fight to take this country back before it is destroyed by the evil eating away at it.

God bless each of you, and I'll be back to drive you nuts before you know it. - Eric

Originally from the coal country hills of Western Maryland. Lately of East Central Alabama - we've gotten some bad storms as of late. As it happened, I had the weather radar up on my computer screen at work, and I'd just texted my wife that a cell blew up directly over town, when she called, in hysterics, and was screaming about the house. I was there 20 minutes later, and it was already gutted. Flames coming out through the roof. Our particular area is a known lightning magnet. One tree in my back yard was recently killed off by a strike. The fire department knows the area well. A storm in March caused a surge that not only killed the hot water tank, but two bedroom outlets, an oven element, and the memory in my wife's PC. All at once. I always joked that the house was built on an old Indian burial ground, and the spirits were a bad mood.

Ain't so funny to me now.

I join in urgent prayer for you!

[Blitzen42]

So sorry, Viking2002, for the immense loss you and yours have suffered. We will continue praying for your strength and courage, and for the loving arms of God to be wrapped around you as you seek to move toward some semblance of normalcy in your life. I wish I could make it all better for you . . .

Had to start from scratch two times due to losing all in fires... a humble Prayer to give you strength.
