I read the thread you posted about your situation and I have read about other YT members dealing with similar issues also. I just never thought or even knew about it happening, until it happened to me. Like I said, it is as hard or harder as if she would have gone to rainbow bridge.

It's been almost 3 years and it does get easier. You sounds like such a loving and caring mom to your babies don't beat yourself up. Reading this post brought me back to when I had to go through it and it brought tears to my eyes.

We really did try everything we could think of to make it work. I am sorry to hear about you having to return the jack russel you rescued. I pray that Lexie's new family will be able to love her and keep her for the rest of her days.

Thank you all for your words of encouragment. It helps alot having all of you here to talk to, knowing that you understand the depth of my sorrow. This is VERY tough for me to accept, but I know that slowly, it will get better.
