Thank you all!! About 20 minutes after posting my initial message about Max, he passed away in my arms and at home instead of the vets office. I could feel his little heart until it stopped and kissed him good-bye for the last time. I wrapped him in a towel and held him until it was over and cried, cried, cried.....
It was peaceful though---no pain. Except for mine. Puppy Walker and my other Lhasa Bailey sat by my side on the floor. I'm sure they knew what was going on and were trying to be there for me. What a sad day.....
I took the day off from work to be with Max and I'm glad I did. How awful would it have been if he would have died all alone in the kennel? I'm grateful that I had these last moments with him, even though my heart is breaking with pain. Thank you all for your prayers and thoughts!!! Besides my husband I couldn't reach anybody in my family to share my grief with. Thank you for being there! |
