so sorry to hear this news. Hug's to you and your family and Peyton. |
Heartbreaking news about Peyton this morning. Whatever the decisions that you make for Peyton I know that you are making them out of love for your little boy. :hug: |
I'm so sorry to hear this latest update. Poor baby and poor you. Words seem hard to come by right now...just know I'm praying for you and Peyton and I feel so bad. *HUG* |
I'm sorry. You know you and Peyton have our prayers.:( |
I'm so sorry you got this news about Peyton. Prayers for you and for him for strength; for wisdom; for peace about whatever decisions you face. |
Crying so hard as I type this... I am going to have to let my sweet little Peyton go. :( This is what I found out... the neuro damage cannot be reversed. We might be able to stop the hydrocephalus, but the brain damage caused from it will never be better. He lost his sense of smell in addition to being blind and deaf. If we could keep him alive, then that would be it. He would barely be just alive. His system would probably forever have trouble regulating his sodium levels. He would have to be continually hand fed to insure that he was eating and drinking. It basically comes down to quality of life for him. The vet said if it were her puppy she would let him go. As a dog who can't see, hear, smell or eat well on his own his life would not be good. As much as I want to keep him alive for me, I just don't feel it is fair to him. I need to let him rest now. He has had a rough and confusing little life. I think about those first few days with him when he played a little. At least we were able to have that together before he got worse. I will always remember his little puppy kisses he gave me when I was so upset for him. He was telling me goodbye. I am so heartbroken. |
I understand and I believe you are doing the right thing for Peyton. It is the hardest decision and, I believe, the most humane decision you can make. I'm sorry. I'm crying, too.:( |
I'm sorry Bitsy; your post made me cry too. I do feel,as well, that you are showing Peyton a final act of love by letting him go. You did everything you could. Peace be with you. |

I am so sorry to hear this news and am very sad for you. I would have taken the exact steps you did and would have also chosen as you did to make the decision to let him go after the call from the neurologist. Although your wallet is lighter, you had all the information you needed to have and it was based on more conclusive facts than you had just less than 24 hours ago. I\'m sorry that Peyton will leave you but you gave him a chance that many would not have. As you heal, I hope your can find comfort in knowing you did all you could for him and I believe little Peyton knew he was safe with your love and good judgment. Hugs. |
I\'m so sorry to hear this news...I\'m crying, w/u, as I know so many, here, on YT are...Rest, knowing you did everything you possibly could for him...There will never be any doubt of that...Prayers, for you and your family, as you face this very sad time in your life... |
I\'m so sorry |
I am so sorry. :( You have done all that you can for little Peyton....I hope you realize that. This decision, while terribly hard on you, is out of love for that precious puppy. He will be a little angel watching over you until you see him one day at Rainbow Bridge. |
We all share your tears, Bitsy. As heartbreaking as it is, I hope you will take comfort in knowing that you did all you possibly could for the little guy and that you made the choice in his best interest, not yours. And that he got a lot of tenderness and love from you when he needed it. Bless you for taking such good care of this special dog. |
I\'m also in tears. I wish there were words to help you feel better, but there just aren\'t. Peyton was very lucky to be loved by you for his short life. You can rest assured that you did everything possible for him before making the hard decision. I\'m so sorry and will be praying for God to comfort you. Hugs to you and goodbye to precious Peyton. |
