Thank you to all of you for your wonderful comments. I'm having a tough time tonite because exactly 1 week ago, almost to the hour, I lost Tinkerbell. I just wish I would have done something different - driven to the emergency hospital faster, given her more nutrical, something! Sorry if I sound so depressing. You guys don't know how much your comments and private messages have helped. I am not a religous fanatic but I have to say that it was fate and an angel that brought me to this website. You all have made a tragic situation so much more bearable. Thanks again. I am so glad I was able to share Tinkerbell with you. On a lighter note, I'm going to play around with the computer and figure out how to upload my new "framed" picture of Tinkerbell. Also, here is an update: I still have not received the results of the necropsy. I called the pathology department at the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine and the technician told me that she wasn't sure if the Dr. had called my vet with a preliminary verbal report on the cause of death but that he was done for the day...ugh...the suspense is killing me. I suppose everything is in "slow mode" because of the holidays.

So sorry for your loss she was a beautiful little girl...

Awww...Bless your heart - even finding the answer won't help your pain but I know you really must want them...I would too ....She was just a little doll and you're probably right - Christmas is a busy time and many people take more time off than usual ...I hope you get the answers you need and am so glad you're feeling better by talking about her -

Feel free to keep talking - we're all here for you ...

See what I mean? Another Angel on this website! Thank you for everything!

I so hope the answers you need are there really soon. It is so hard NOT knowing. The one thing I do know is that your treatment was so right on and so fast, that nothing you could have done would have saved her. Your daughter and you were there when she needed you and please don't lose sight of that..Bless you and yours in this really sad time..

Yes it is hard not knowing.....I feel so much anguish. I need answers and maybe the closure part of this tragedy will begin. Funny, sometimes I find myself looking at my breeder's website (amazingyorkies.com) so that for some bizarre reason I feel close to her - the woman who sent me Tinkerbell, a great joy in my life if only for 10 days. I know that sounds crazy, but it makes me feel better. Anyway, I was looking at the website for the 100th time today and guess what? Deb (the breeder) updated the website just tonite!! How ironic is that! And she included a picture of Tinkerbell in her website - she is the lil precious one posing near the purple wine glass with a gold strand of pearls next to her. It made me sad but at the same time proud that my baby was featured in the website even though she is gone.
Thank you so much for your kind words. I tried to save her. You are right, I just can't lose sight of the fact that I tried and it was simply her time to go. My daughter read your post and she says thank you also. She is so appreciative of your generosity and support - and for helping maintain my sanity! :)

MiaW, have you found out anything from the report yet? Just wanted to let you know that I'm still thinking of you.

Hi Shae, thanks for thinking of me, it means a lot. No, I don't have any information yet. I called the pathology dept yesterday and the technician who has been helping me is out til next Tuesday! UGH! I called the emergency animal hospital and was told they have not received a report yet from the vet who performed the autopsy. Hopefully I will know something next week. I will let you know as soon as I know. Thank you again!

I'm so sorry to hear this. May I ask what happened? Also, I'm in Jersey too. If you need someone...I know we don't know each other...but I would be willing to get together if you'd like to talk. :) Please take care of yourself.

so sorry for your loss, she was a special little girl and so cute

wendybee IS RIGHT ON TARGET..YORKIES ARE NOT JUST FOR CHRISTMAS...I LOVE YORKIES~
 

[B]wendybee IS RIGHT ON TARGET! "YORKIES ARE FOR LIFE NOT JUST FOR CHRISTMAS"!

Thanks wendybee for saying that. My next litter is due any day now...This is our second litter from our Lil'Bit.
When our pups are ready for sale I don't care how much money someone has I interview the person, ask questions, etc. before I let someone have one of our pups. I have work on the psychiatric unit of a hospital for 10 years and I am a pretty good judge of character and if I don't feel the person is right for the pup or the pup not right for them...THEY JUST DON'T GET IT.

I also send a check list home with the person who does get one of our pups and list what they like and don't like and a little about their personality...atleast of what I had observed so far in their short little life with me.

I also give them all the vet records, my vets name,address and phone number if they would like to call her (She said that was ok with her) and even sometimes a little toy or treat they like at that time.
I think all these things are important...atleast to me..I want to give a healthy, happy puppy to the buyer and want them to feel very secure with their new puppy.

**Anyone else so crazy as me?? I just love Yorkies :aimeeyork
