All I can say is, my heart is broken, and I still wake up at night crying. The pain is unbearable sometimes - but I know in my heart that I did the right thing for Molly. She was the love of my life and we fought so hard to keep her healthy. Like you, I prayed for answers. I had vowed to Molly that she would never suffer again, yet I didn't want to let her go. The lady Veterinarian who came to my home was so gentle and caring. She touched Molly's paw ever so lightly and in a second she was gone. I miss her so much. But my memories of her are all good memories; The way she loved to be held and loved to lick my face. The terrible moments when she was gasping for air are gone and will never return. Now I see her running in the meadow, sniffing her way through the grass, and investigating every leaf. She was so beautiful and had such a loving heart. Her love was pure and unconditional and I kept my promise to her. Judi G in Illinois
