Tarots Rainbow

by Elizabeth .........................................

Loosing my big guy Tarot,a 12 yr old Doberman last September i was devastated,heartbroken & lost. I've known about Rainbow Bridge for a long time through friends,books,web ect, but never really thought it was anything other than a sweet but not so real way of helping the grief... Until a week to the hour i lost my Tarot. My vet came to the house at 6.25 & we prepared Tarot for his passing. At 6.50 he stopped breathing. My heart was broke as he was taken away and nothing or no'one could console me. The saying about you can cry yourself dry just isnt true.I asked God to help me with my grief & i wanted to know if my boy was safe,i needed some sort of a sign!! Every day since 15th September ( his passing) i would see so many things with Rainbows on them, be it a sweet wrapper, a picture,something on tv & even a pair of shoes with a rainbow painted on them (from a news paper as i opened it up, a sale i think). BUT no Rainbows in the sky! A week to the day i brought my boy home & there was a Rainbow card with him,then a car stopped beside me at the traffic lights & a child was wearing a hat with a Rainbow on it!!!! i was so confused, why no Rainbow in the sky for my boy to cross over, why all these other Rainbows??
Along with this there was a cold spot where he had finally passed on his favourite sheepskin rug, as i came into the house with him,crying my eyes out & holding him, his brother Tealc lay by my feet with his paws on my toes looking lost.. I cant remember how long i lay holding my boy,but then i called to my friend to close the upstairs hall window as it was getting a bit windy. He never heard me so i took my boy upstairs with me & pulled the blind back. There it was, a huge bright Rainbow right in the middle of my vision. It hadn't even rained. I called to my friend to come & look & he was amazed at its brightness, then he said my name & told me to look at the time! It was 6.50, i gasped & cried again, but this time i watched the Rainbow as i held him & said goodby "Big Guy" its ok to go now,go find the others. With that the Rainbow just faded into the sky. I held his casket close as i walked down the stairs & instantly felt no cold spot as i walked into the room. My boy had crossed the bridge. .
Its been 9 months & yes i still cry, i miss him so much,but i know now he stayed with me until i could let him go & The Rainbow Bridge is now no longer just a sweet help to grieving pet owners to me,it actually exists. I had so many rainbows in that week and now it felt like i was being prepared for "The One". Yes he crossed over & i know he is safe.
I'm sorry this is so long i just felt i needed to tell of his Rainbow passing.

Comments would be appreciated by the author, Elizabeth
