My girl Brandi was layed to rest !!
 

My family and I struggled through many tough decisions throughout these past few months that my baby girl Brandi's was struck with not one but two life threatening illnesses. But when the quality of her life began to take a turn for the worst there was nothing more to discuss.

We wanted to be sure that when things got rough and when it was just a matter of time before she would go down a horrible road of sickness and suffering that we would not allow that to happen. We wanted to make sure that when the time came for her to leave us that she would not be in pain or suffering in any way. It would have been selfish of us to keep her here any longer only to see the Lupus and the Diabetes totally consume her. So, we made the decision to have to put to sleep. We made the appointment day earlier so that we could all come to terms with her leaving us and to make sure that her last day on this earth were full of good times, tons of hugs and kisses, lot of treats, being spoiled and that she knew how Loved she was. She was such a huge part of our family and we wanted to make sure that she left this earth in good spirits and not a broken down soul or totally riddled with disease.

When the time came, I held her in my arms every step of the way, until she took her last breath. Whispering in her ear letting her know that her mommy was there for her. Telling her how brave she was through everything she went through and how much she was loved. She was so calm and went so peacefully and she can now be at peace. I miss her terribly and cry for her every day but its the thought of knowing she will not suffer and by keeping all of the wonderful memories of her during those seven years together that will get us all through this.

Tears as I read this. I'm so sorry for what you had to go through with Sweet Brandi "B". She was so fortunate to have your love & affection til the end. R.I.P. Sweetie.

My heart goes out to you on the loss of your sweet Brandi.

I've been there and I cry just remembering. You did the right thing for Brandi. I doubted myself for a very long time afterwards, but I now know it was the right thing to do. Brandy is no longer hurting and hopefully she is playing with my Homer-dog at the rainbow bridge.

I'm sorry to hear this, may this dear baby please now rest in peace...

RIP Brandi!!

My tears are just flowing for you and your sweet baby. It is so hard to lose one of our precious babies even when you know down deep in your soul that what you did for her was the best gift you could have given her because now she is free from all pain and suffering. Rest in peace sweet baby Brandi and I hope you'll meet up with all my girls at the bridge.

So sad. RIP Brandi. You will always be loved and remembered...

So sad. I am so sorry for your loss of little Brandi. She is resting in peace now.

I usually don't read the RIP sections because they are so distressing to me but I have been following little Brandi's struggles. I am so sorry that it came to this at such an early age but you gave her a great life and she was dearly loved. Rest in peace darling girl.

I have a difficult time reading RIP threads as it always makes me cry. It is always so hard to say good by to ones we love and will forever miss them. Hugs to you and your family! RIP little, Brandi!

What a selfless and difficult decision to make! My condolences to you and your family. I can only imagine that you all had a difficult time watching your little loved one go through the decline of health. Wishing you a warm Christmas and hoping that you will find some sort of comfort knowing that Brandi is no longer feeling any sort of pain and/or discomfort. Wishing you see all the great memories of Brandi. Hoping that you will open your heart for another precious one to fill your heart and life, when the time is right.
