    You make sharing and being vulnerable and emotionally available seem easy.lol and you can speak extemporaneously like you were born to it. I laughed, I cried, and I’m hopeful for what’s to come and can’t wait to see what you share with us next. F’ing love you back, girl. 🦋💙♥️🧡

    Thank you for posting this! I know it must have been hard to relive all that again. I love the dedication you have for your loved ones, furry or not.

    You know how I feel about Jonas and his journey. Massive hugs. Proud of you for protecting your relationship with Jonas and making it through this vlog. I am really enjoying all these vlogs. You are doing a fantastic job

    I love and respect that you made the best decision for you, right now, where you're at. 💙 It's okay to not be at a place to really share this story now (or maybe ever!). I can totally understand how social media and putting it out there as it was happening would be so hard and just loud. I know from Instagram, it was a struggle in trying to pull together this story and I actually thought maybe it wasn't the right move for you (just a feeling I had because I could tell it was really f'ing hard for you), so in a weird way, I'm glad you listened to your gut. I'm looking forward to whatever comes next!

    You don't have to do anything you don't want to do. I think everyone should respect others' boundaries. Pet loss and grief is so personal, everything comes in waves. The happy memories, the sadness, the warmth of memories, and the loneliness. Sending you all my love Brandy, and Jonas ❤ #JonasForever

    It’s absolutely ok not to share things we keep so close to our heart! Grief can be such a private process, and healing just takes as long as it’s going to take. There is no timeline. At least not to me. Our sweet pug Gus will be gone 2 years on January 13th, and it’s still so hard. So 7 months seems like a very small amount of time to me to be able to even talk about it without crying. I’m so glad you gave yourself grace and compassion with this decision. Two more quick things: 1) Your hair looks fantastic! 2) I share my birthday with Jonas 💙

    Tell me why I am teary eyed 5 minutes into this video.... Grief is so confusing. I love pugs which you know but my "heart dog" passed away in 2015 and I STILL think about her all the time. She was a sweet pitbullX named Samantha. SAM and I were together when I was 19-32 and man did I go through alot through my 20's with her. Her death was sudden and I had NO time to mentally prepare. The vet suspected she had a stroke and the dog I knew was gone. I had to choose to let her go. She was perfect... Besides Sam my most traumatic dog death was my pug Muffin last year. She died at home at 5am in my arms in my backyard. I have too many urns on the shelf.

    I am currently beating myself up for not physically healing as fast as I expected after having surgery. Whether physical or spiritual, we just cannot control our healing so I need to give myself grace to allow time to do its thing. Healing from losing a person or animal that owns our heart, that is another thing altogether and time is not even linear for that. Thank you for making content from the heart as well as entertaining us with silly senior pug and friendly bird antics. Grumble Farm makes my day, every day. I wish I could bring all the wealth energy of the universe to your door.

      I LOVE THAT SO MUCH 🥹 I miss him every moment of every freaking day! Jesse's in the middle of editing our next video where I finally transferred his ashes into a custom urn I had made for him last year. It was a tough day (I did it on his birthday) but I'm so happy I did and I can't wait to finish and share the video this week!! 💙

    I finally was able to watch this one. I knew it would be a tough one for you but I'm glad you chose to protect your heart and privacy. I have learned through devastating loss this year, that its ok to not be okay. I see you and I support you my grumble farm friend. Thank you for sharing your life with us and bringing authenticity to an increasingly fake world of social media. Even on my worst days that I struggle the most...I always look forward to the grumble posts! 🙏💙🧡❤🐾

    I know we have communicated about grieving before. I don’t know if you know the actual difference between grieving and mourning. Grieving is everything that goes on inside your body and mind in response to a loss, your thoughts, emotions, feelings. Mourning is the activities or motions In response to loss, crying, talking, screaming, yelling, creative activities like painting, singing, writing, sculpting. Both are necessary to process a loss fully, in a healthy way and causes great personal growth. That being said, I didn’t mention grieving and mourning to say you need to do a video about Jonas and your loss of him. I am proud of you for standing up and saying are not ready to telling specifics. It is good to let people know that one doesn’t just get over the loss of a soulmate and that is ok, it will take as long as it takes. I get the same teary way when talking about Jimmie in certain circumstances.
    Grief lasts a lifetime, one just learns how to carry it with you on the journey of your life without their physical presence. I enjoyed the video. I am looking forward to your next video. Hugs
