So sad. Hello.
I understand how your wife feels, with the last memory of your baby sleeping forever. But she was peaceful and went in her own time without human intervention; that was a blessing. I know I cannot forget the last night I spent with my very sick dog and that memory haunts me sometimes. I had to send her to the Bridge to save her from suffering any more, and the guilt of that also is hard to live with. Like you, could I have done more??? I know now what I did was right for her, and from all your posts I know you did too. No one could have loved her more or taken better care of her. One day you will come to terms with her loss and only happy memories will remain. Perhaps too your other dogs will blossom in time and become more friendly and loving. They may be mourning the loss of their buddy too?
Hugs. |
