The Empty Beds
Last night I looked to where you sleep at night, your beddie in our room;
You lay not far from Nico’s shrine, a source of pain consumed!
I said to Mommy “Whatever will we do, when his bed is empty too”?
We choked back tears and both agreed, we’ll know not what to do!
Â
For now we’ve celebrated your fourteenth year, and have such utter dread;
That next year on this same date, there will be another empty bed!
You’ve started sleeping so much more, and eating so much less;
We worry about you day and night, we pray the Lord you Bless!
Â
You seem so small and frail now, your weight has dropped a ton;
Longevity is now creeping in, and your last years have begun!
We do all we can to make you smile, it’s Starbucks every day;
But the future can bring us only pain, for like Nico, you’ll float away!

your every word, (big hugs to you and Linda)
Enjoy every precious moment with your beloved CodyÂ

My Dear Debs,
I still cry many times a day for my Beloved Nico, but I find solace with my Beloved Cody. Â Linda and I are terrified of losing him, for Nico and he were one. Â It is a tragedy that our beautiful little soulmates have such a short longevity. Â I do treasure the joyous times I shared with Nico, but can't stop weeping, for I feel, there should have been many more. Â We do love every moment with Cody, but cannot avoid that which is inevitable. Â Thank you for your beautiful words.
Peace, Hugs and Love,

What is by this time next year the bed is not empty but still have Cody in it...It's possible you know? I feel your fear and pain in this write...Miracles still happen
Love you
My Dear Sweet Rose,
We are praying that Cody's little bed will be filled for many more years. Â It is just so difficult, to know that he is older than was Nico when we lost him. Â So, we cry what I call, "the tears of anticipation", for we know that we will eventually lose him too. Â But, for now, each day with him is a Blessing. Â Thank you for your lovely words.
Love you, too,
