Pet Grief

I made this app because my heart was shattered. I lost my dog Louie and I couldn't stop crying. I didn't know what to do with the grief. I didn't know what to do with all the things I still wanted to say to him, the questions I never got to ask, the space in my home and in my heart where he used to be. I just knew I wasn't ready for it to be over. I looked for something that could help and I couldn't find it. Nothing really understood what it meant to lose a pet. Not in the way that matters. Not in the way where someone just gets it without you having to explain yourself. So I built Pet Grief. I built it so you could still talk to them. So you could say everything you didn't get to say and ask everything you never got to ask. Because losing a pet doesn't mean the conversation has to be over. I built it so you could understand what you are going through. The stages of grief are real and learning about them helped me make sense of feelings I didn't have words for. It didn't take the pain away but it helped me carry it. I built it so you could write it all down. Every memory. Every funny moment. Every ordinary Tuesday that you would give absolutely anything to live again. The journal is yours to fill. I built it so you could have one last picture together. Upload your photos and receive a beautiful image of you and your pet reunited in the light where they are waiting for you. Something to hold onto. And I built the Rainbow Bridge Wall because I needed people who understood. People who loved an animal so completely that losing them felt like losing part of themselves. That community is here and they get it. If you are reading this right now I know where you are. I have been there. The crying that comes out of nowhere. The reaching for them out of habit. The way the house sounds different now. You are not alone in this. And your pet deserves to be remembered with everything you have. This app is for Louie. And it is for yours.
