Gimli, our little 4 year old rescue, who was abused, broken and who knows what else, who started out being out for blood, and after a lot of work turned into a sweetheart, isn't likely to make it much longer. From some of the abuse/damage he suffered, he has had a lot of physical problems, and died once a bit over a year and a half ago (my husband brought him back with CPR). His organs have been failing slowly due to internal damage since before he came to us. It looks like, short of a miracle, they have worn out. There is nothing the vet can do for organ failure. So we are spending tonight and as long as he's with us, with him. We don't know if it will be hours or a day...but we're losing him. He doesn't seem to be in pain. We knew his time with us would be limited, and are grateful for the two years we have had him with us. I wanted to share some pics of him.

Pic 1 (when we first brought him home)

Jen, I'm so sorry for him and you. At least he got to know what a loving home is like.

At least I know William and Peek will meet him when he gets to the bridge, and he'll be whole again. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

I am so glad there are people like you that are willing to take in any glider(abused, sick, or just plain healthy). I am sorry that Gimli is going through such a difficult time right now but at least the last two years of his life have been in a home of love. I will be praying for you and your baby, Gimli. May God Bless you in all that you do. Thank you for being so great to the abandoned gliders that people decide they no longer need. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hug2.gif" alt="" />

I love that last picture... he looks so content <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

There's no better place for him to spend his last moments than with you and your husband being truly loved <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/heartpump.gif" alt="" />

Oh Jen, I'm so sorry that you and Gimli are going through this. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crying.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crying.gif" alt="" /> At least he has known the meaning of true love in the time he spent with you.

THE RAINBOW BECKONS

In loving memory of my angels who have crossed over the rainbow bridge


The rainbow has beckoned
It's calling you home
To meadows and forest
In which you may roam

My heart it grows heavy
To think you might leave
I'd be all alone then
Alone then to grieve

I know deep inside me
That you cannot stay
The pain that you're feeling
Grows more night and day

You look at me asking
In your silent way
To let you go home now
"Please let me" you say

You say there's no pain there
No fear and no hate
Just peace and well being
Once you're through the gate

You tell me you'll always
Hold me in your heart
That time and that distance
Can't keep us apart

And if I should need you
At my side you'll be
Tho I cannot see you
You'll be there with me

You promise to wait at
the rainbow for me
To wait `til I join you
Together to be

I just want to hold you
And beg you to stay
To ask please don't leave me
Alone on this day

Yet deep in my heart know
I must let you go
You must make the journey
now to the rainbow

I bow down my head then
The tears fill my eyes
I give you my blessing
My love now to fly

So fly to the rainbow
And wait there for me
Some day I will join you
Together to be

God Bless you and little Gimli. I'll see if my Bobbie <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/gliderangel.gif" alt="" />, Sassy <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/gliderangel.gif" alt="" />, Toby <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/gliderangel.gif" alt="" /> & Zoe <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/gliderangel.gif" alt="" /> can't join William <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/gliderangel.gif" alt="" /> & Peek <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/gliderangel.gif" alt="" /> in greeting him at the bridge when it is his time.

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crying.gif" alt="" /> My heart breaks too Jen.
He will pass with all those bad memories long forgotten, and remember the love that he only knows now <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hug2.gif" alt="" />.

Judge not until you have walked in their shoes and lived their lives. What you see online is only part of the story.

I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance


The soul would have no rainbow if the eyes had no tears.

Home to where there will be no more pain, no more injuries, no more doctors or medicine, just lots of love, fun and tons of good times.

Thank you Jen for being a good glider mommy to him for as long as you have. Thank you for showing him what love really was before he has to make his final journey. Thank you for giving him someone he will want to keep an eye on while playing at the bridge.

Oh my goodness! You all have such a wonderful way with words. You are truly amazing Jen! I can only imagine what you are going through. I'm sorry. Treasure the time you have had with Gimli and knowing that you provided him with the love he should have had all his life! I don't know what else to say - everyone as said it all and so well! My prayers are with you - <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hug2.gif" alt="" />

Gim is still hanging in there. The tiny bit of liquid we managed to get down came back up within a minute. He's badly dehydrated, refusing food and drink-can't keep it down, anyway. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> He's moving slower and slower, sometimes seeming almost catatonic. I don't think you'd call the little he's eliminated either pee or poop, it's like a tiny blob of soft clear gelatin..that's the only way I can describe it. And it has a very foul smell. Even with his body so damaged, he's a fantastic little guy...and such a fighter! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crying.gif" alt="" /> What a life he could have had had someone not seen fit to abuse him-pull off his tail, throw him into a wall, break his jaw, dislocate his hips and damage his insides! The four years he survived with all that testifies to his will to live. The injustice of what this little guy endured in his first two years is getting to me, that this is a direct result... So help me if I EVER catch someone neglecting or abusing an animal...they WILL wish they'd never had the thought in the first place! It's so hard to watch this. And to know it's because of some monster that isn't even fit to be called human is almost more than I can stand. I only hope that someday what they did to this little defenseless 93 gram glider comes back on them TENFOLD.

Jen Gimlis battle has been a long uphill fight for all of you, thanks to the love and the care that you both have given him, he has made it this far. 4 years longer than he should have.. Savor those 4 years, remember the good times, even when he wasn't at his best.My prayers are with you all in this time. Kiss him for me..

oh jen, when i saw this thread i started to cry...that little boy has been through so much, it's so unfair that such a sweet little soul had to go through so much just to see an end that comes too soon on the timeline...but i am so glad he was able to experience all of the good things he deserved while he was with you. his life may not have been long enough but his heart knows the love in this world that every being should know, because of your kindness and care.

give him kisses for me.

He is a beautiful little boy. You have given him everything he needed, a home, companionship and the unconditional love that he deserves. You will be the one he remembers, not the horrible people who mistreated him, he will be waiting for you at the bridge. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/heartpump.gif" alt="" />God Bless you and little Gimli. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/heartpump.gif" alt="" />

Jen I'm so sorry for your loss.... God Bless you!

[:"darkred"] Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

Author unknown...

Oh, Im so sorry for what that poor baby has had to go through. And I am so glad he knew what it was to be loved and adored and cherished before his short little life was taken from him and he knew there was someone out there to treat him right and love him.

The rainbow bridge is now a little bit more lively, more actice, more joyfull with him there. He got to learn so much during his time here. He saw the worst in humans, but then he saw the best. He knew pain, but then he learned about empathy. He knew hate, but then he experienced unconditonal devoted love. He knew not to trust, but then he learned he was important to you, and he trusted. He saw how big your heart was and he let you in his. I know he will remain with you forever, until that day when you meet again.

[:"green"]Jen,
I had to wipe the tears from my face & blow my nose hard before I could type my response... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crying.gif" alt="" />
Simple words cannot express the sorrow & pain that I feel for you now. I know how much you loved little Gimli & to be with him during his last hours is such an incredible gift to have given him. It is because of the love that you had for him in his greatest hours of need that he was able to live for as long as he did. You are truly an Angel of Mercy and one of the best Glider Mom's there are... God Bless You. Gimli is now whole again and without pain at the Rainbow Bridge awaiting your reunion someday...

Jen, you and your husband are truely glider angels. Not many would take in little gliders with health issues and devote their time and money to save them. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/heartpump.gif" alt="" /> We can relate to your experience with Gimli. It has happened to us on several occasions with rescues we take in. And it doesn't get any easier. But like you and your hubby we will not give up as long as there is a glider in need.

Our hearts go out to you.

Jen,
I cry not for little Gim, as he is whole and healthy and his heart and soul are totally at peace. My heart breaks and the tears are for you as I know the pain you are feeling. May you find peace in knowing that without you, Gim would never have known the love that he took with him. Call me if you need me, my friend.

Judge not until you have walked in their shoes and lived their lives. What you see online is only part of the story.

I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance


The soul would have no rainbow if the eyes had no tears.
