I'm deeply sorry for your loss. My little girl, Gracie, passed away from a collapsed trachea. She had it from the time she was little, but it steadily got worse. I could usually know what to do to stop her acute attacks, but my vet kept compassionately letting me know how serious it was getting. I thought she'd pass away one time from an acute attack, but she didn't. The day before my landscapers were doing a fall cleanup, and Gracie barked for hours. My husband said he couldn't stop her. When I came home there was such a sparkle in her eyes. Gracie was so happy! It must have been too much for her heart because she passed away the next day. My vet told me she lived years longer than he expected, but she was only 9.5 years old.
Gracie was my little love bug who loved life she lived life full speed ahead and did not allow anything to stop her. She touched us so deeply, and she always makes us smile when we think of her. I hope that day comes for you when you think about your baby. |
