I've had the good fortune to have shared long lives with my Danes, until Inca.  4 years was too short. My first girl lived to age ten, Miwok, and my second girl lived until age 12, Maya. Inca's unheard of mass and immune problem  in conjunction with the exploratory surgeries and life threatening infections intensified the time we shared.
She's such a lady with a zeal for life I've never seen.  We prepared ourselves, as much as one can, for the fact that one of her infections would take her.  She'd become ill and die.  Not the way she did die.  We were so blind sighted it took our breath away.  An injury was never in the mix. As I mentioned above, I've gone through the loss of loved ones so I know time will heal, at least my mind knows that and after a while my emotions will follow, but for now the 6 weeks she's been gone feels like yesterday.  I know it has helped some.  The lump in my throat may have eased a little.  There's been a day or two without tears although I can't tell friends in person she has passed without being reduced to a crying fool incapable of forming words.  I thought I'd venture out last week and tell the trainer who worked with Maya 16 years ago, Inca 4 years ago and guided Modoc's puppy class and current obedience class, that Inca had passed. Big Mistake. Nat finished telling her as I retreated to the privacy of the car.  Modoc has been a comfort, although he has suffered his own separation anxiety. He went from his mom to Inca.  He's lost all the potty training he knew and destroys anything in sight when left alone.  We've grown closer to him in this time and his issues are receding.   We're using suggested from members to begin to get control of the potty training again.  I watch the short slide show I made for Inca several times a week and feel better after having seen her again. If your new and would like to meet her it's short and here
Well, just needed to ramble. We miss her so much and guess we'll just have to wait for time to be kind.  By the way, what's up with that?  If your having a great "time",
"Time" passes so quick you never saw it go by but if your having a bad time, it moves like a snail.  Somethings not right about that, lol,

Lying time

I can not believe

the hurts so strong

as the day you left

for your journey home

I thought that time

would ease the pain

only fond memories 

would remain

my eyes no longer

would fill with tears

your sweet smile

wouldn't be so clear

I'd speak of you

beaming with pride

of the bond we shared

when you were alive

I'd be content

with the time we had

I could speak your name

without being sad

That's what we're promised

time will provide

only to find

that time has lied

Time will have it's

judgment day

and when it does

I hope it pays

I want to be there

to hear it explain

to all those believers

it left in pain

Yet here I sit

with a ray of hope

that lying time

will help me cope

I guess I'm mad

my heart's still broken

and lying time

has not spoken

your legacy deserves

much more then sorrow

I'll try my hardest

for better tomorrows

There were many lessons

we learned together

the bond we shared

will last forever

no longer revered as sublime

I'll wait no longer for lying time.
