I also made the arrangement to have him cremated right after the euth (see I can't even say the whole word). Anyway, I wanted you all to know that you have played a giant roll in my having the courage to do what's right and I firmly believe this is the best thing for my baby. He is just hanging on by a thread now...so skinny and weak. Doesn't have a clue where he is anymore. On the flip side, my husband and I got a new pup and named him "Patch" (after Patch Adams) as he has been such an encouragement to us since we got him 2 weeks ago...he is such a comedian - always bringing smiles to our faces and making us laugh...he has been a prayer answered for sure. I sincerely thank you all again from the bottom of my heart... your stories have been a true blessing to me and I'm forever grateful. PS- If you haven't seen the movie "Patch Adams" ...you gotta...it's a wonderful movie! God bless. |
My goodness. I just read this whole thread and you all have me crying right now. I don't ever want to have to think about this with Chester.
Salshine, my heart goes out to you during this difficult time.
