My Casey went to the bridge on July 29th 1994. About 5 months after he left me, I was working at our indoor flea market stall. We sold habdmade furniture. There was a stall to my left, that carried nothing but flea market merchandise. The man who owned it worked, so the front desk collected his money if something was sold. He didn't really sell any one particular thing that you could say he specialized in anything. I sat there at my desk with my Casey on my mind as he usually was. I miss him so much even though it has been 5 years. I still cry for him every day. I was at the point that day where I was feeling like I needed to go home and have myself a good cry. I sat there debating what to do, when for no apparent reason I got up and walked over to the stall next to me. As soon as I walked into it, I saw a pile of stuffed animals. And on the very top of the pile, was a bear with a little tee shirt on, and on the tee shit was 3 words "Casey Loves You". I couldn't believe my eyes. I grabbed the bear and went up to the desk and paid for it. What convinced me that my baby was talking to me was this animal was a bear and my baby's name was Casey Bear. I truely believe that it was his way of letting me know that he was still with me. he knew I was grieving deeply and he wanted me to know that he was still there and he loves me. Casey Bear was a beautiful 2 year old Cinnimon Chow Chow. I was not home one day and he and my other male Chow Chow got into a fight. Chows are very territorial and will fight to the death. I always kept them apart, but for some reason that day, they managed to get together. There must have been a horrific fight that day because when I came home, I found my baby almost gone. I rushed him to the vet's but he only lived for one hour. The vet would not let me stay with him, and that hurts me so badly because I feel that maybe my baby thought I abandoned him. I carried that guilt aroung with me all the time, but I know now that he forgave me because I truely believe that he did tell me he loved me that day. I will never forget him. The pain is just as deep today as that terrible day in July of 94 that I lost him. He is my guardian angel. God Bless you my baby Casey Bear. Mommy Loves You, and I always will. I will come for you at the bridge some day, please baby wait for Mommy, I love you.
