Oreo today, Thursday

Are you sitting down?
Oreo awakened me today my pawing at me to feed him. Which means he was up on my bed and active.
when I didn’t open my eyes or get up he went down the ha; and started calling me. Yeah – talking to me loudly. Well, at his normal volume.

So I fed him and he ate normally.He said then you when I out the food down–normal for him.

Then he started doing all his old usual behaviors – walking around, sort of playing. He seems to be all better. Though I See in his iris there is much going on health-wise that I don’t know about or what to do–except keep loving him so much.
Now I am not going to make any assumptions I have seen people seem to get all well then suddenly leave.

I hold him when he is awake and stop what I am doing when he comes to me. Message there for all of us.

what I Know is…today, right now he seems to be doing great. And I still have his energy feed him set up. So now he is lying on all the energy and going to sleep.
Normal behavior. He is 20 years old.

Thank you for your love, Light and prayers. Please keep them coming. I feel better too. I had a really hard week and my body showed it. And I felt very held in Love and Light.

I love you. Thank you for caring. thank you for making the extra effort for us.

Power of the Spirit – part 1

One of the most impactful experiences of my life came in the care-taking of my mother during the last ten months of her life. In addition to the devastating physical deterioration caused by cancer, my mom’s mental functioning was like that of a two-year old. She was unable to do anything for herself. She thought I was her mother. She clung to me and was uncomfortable when I was out of her sight.
When my mom had the mini-stroke that took away her ability to live on her own, I was just completing a three-year struggle to rebuild my own life following a brain injury. There I was, 49 years old, just ready to take on living my own life again for the first time when I became my mother’s parent around-the-clock.
I felt cheated and very angry. I resented having to put my life on hold yet again–indefinitely. (I did not know she had cancer at the time. To me, this was the ultimate unwilling sacrifice that could last many years.)
I threw a major pity party for myself. I made the situation all about me and how my mom’s illness affected me. No matter how I looked at the situation, all I saw were unfair circumstances coupled with cruel timing.
I received a priceless gift when I heard someone say, “It is never about you. It is always about the other person.” While the words came from a salesman teaching how to make sales, the message instantly changed my world.
I thought about what it must be like for my mom, this amazing woman who had run all three of her boss’ businesses and single-handedly raise my brother and me at a time when women did not work outside the home. In that moment, and for the rest of her life, I felt only love, honor, respect, and never-ending gratitude.

Oreo at bed time Tuesday

Today Oreo ate some food. I gave him small amounts and he asked for more. I don’t know what that means. I am loving him, golding him whenever he is awake. Well, not exactly holding him. That is not his thing. I am by him, on the floor where he is lying on all kinds of energy technologies.
Get this, I ordered a box of 100 Sacred G Fusion posters for a group to which I belong. the timing caused me to not get them until today. If the order had gone in earlier then I would have distributed them last Friday.
As it is, the Universe knew we would need them for Oreo and I get to keep them here until March 5.
He is peaceful today HE doesn’t look all pained as he did yesterday. But then cats to not let on when they hurt–which was part of the terror I felt when he screamed on Sunday.
Thank you for sending love, Light and prayers our way. I didn’t realize how much all the emotions had drained me until last night. I actually slept. Sleeping with a sick family member in the house – not something I ever did before.
All that matters in the world is love.

He Collapsed – Devastation and Miracles

He screamed and collapsed. I thought I lost him. It was so terrifying. I don’t cry easily. My nose is sore from all the wiping.

I was certain I would awaken to his lifeless body this morning. He had not eaten for two days and yesterday stopped drinking water. And all I could do was love him and do all the energy work and prayer I knew to do. He seemed to hurt too much to be touched.

The vet said his heart is weak, that he has a murmur and could go at any time.

The vet? Yes. I am talking about my closest dearest buddy–the one who welcomes me when I come home, who warms my office chair for me and my bed at night, the Soul who gives me unconditional love and lived through some nightmares as I changed my life – and his – over the past 17 years.

If you never owned a cat or some pet who taught you about life as mine has done then maybe this note makes no sense whatsoever to you. But if you ever lost someone close to you then you know how I feel.

I am sorry I did not put up a new Take 5 Tuesday for you today. I could not write a song or make a video. I need to hold my little guy..my very little guy who is down to 6 pounds.

Here is the thing…I hope maybe you can learn something from what happened to us on Sunday. When my cat came to me and screamed then fell over limp I burst into tears and felt so filled with anguish and loss that I pleaded with him not to leave me.

Yeah, that was really selfish. Took me a while to calm down (like until the next day when I saw him hanging on but with little life in him). I spent most of the day lying on the floor next to him telling him to take the energy I and my friends were sending to either heal and recover or to take it and leave his body.

You see, I learned, ten years ago, as I assisted my mom through the transition process out of her body to the next plane, that she stayed in her extremely pained body because she was worried about me. She told me that when I asked her why she wouldn’t leave.

I told her I was okay and I would be okay – terribly sad but okay. Since she left I learned no one ever dies. In fact I know when she comes to visit me. But that is a story to put on my blog not go into now.

Anyway, Oreo seemed to get what I was telling him. He is deaf but I know (also learned this with my Mom) the Spirit hears every word. So when he seemed so calm last night I prepared myself for his departure.

Only this morning he is still here. He purred a soft gentle purr for which I really had to listen. Then he asked for and ate a bit of food and drank some water. He is walking around and looking out the window.

No not his usual self but hey, yesterday I spent all day watching to see if he was still breathing.

The Universe is conspiring – I mean you would not believe all the things that happened in the past 12 hours – to bring peace to both of us.

I don’t know if Oreo is feeling better. The last thing I ever want is for him to stay here in pain because I don’t want to lose him.

What I definitely know is he and I are okay and always will be. Know when I speak the following words they come through me from the HIghest Source that is pure love, pure energy…

“In every moment of every day we are each held with Love in Light.”

All that I share with you comes from my personal and professional experiences with real people and real animals. I do not teach theory or maybes. I live in the truths I share and walk my talk.

And I thank you for reading what just poured out of my heart. Mostly I thank you for joining me on this magnificent though oft’ times supremely challenging adventure we call life.

If you do this sort of thing, both Oreo and I welcome your prayers, Light, energy and love. I will be posting to my blog to keep you and my friends informed of Oreo’s status – and mine.

I live out in the country. My friends live 25 miles away. Oreo is sometimes the only one who talks to me or cuddles with me for days. We all need touching. And that was part of my initial outburst on Sunday. I felt I would be alone. Duh! I know I live in that I am never alone – ever.

In a crisis as emotions flare up intelligence takes a nose dive.

Respectfully,

PS. I know I would have been completely devastated by Sunday and Monday’s events if I did not live at a high level (frequency) of happiness. I know I can’t be all things to all people in teaching happiness so I occasionally recommend the work of my colleagues who I respect. I use those products myself. Hey. I am still growing and learning too.
.
I cannot recommend Natalie’s program highly enough. And her price shows her true compassion for helping others achieve their dreams the same as I. Please look at her program while she still has this unbelievable offer going.

I create products all the time. I know the true value of what she is giving away today. At the very least take a look. Do it for you. Love yourself first. It is not selfish. It is mandatory.

So you know, to be totally up front, I do earn a bit of money when you purchase her products. That is often the case when we help each other get the word out. I use her products, including this one. I had to buy it too. It is worth the price.

What is Love?

When you love someone you bring out the best in them. They do the same for you.

Roy Croft wrote one of my favorite definitions of the word and concept of love.

“I love you,
Now for what you are,
But for what I am
When I am with you.”
