I wanted to let everyone know that Brody passed away earlier this evening. I layed down to take a nap and he was fine. When i woke up he was gone. He had a few tough days. But last night during the night he started doing better and all day today he seemed to be getting better. I wasn't prepared for this at all. IF you would of asked me yesterday i would of thought he wasn't going to make it but today he seemed stronger than ever. I don't understand why. I wanted to thank everyone for all of their prayers and for helping me so much.

I am very sorry to hear this. Something things are just not meant to be. Rest assured that you invested your time to go above and beyond to provide this little one with a fair and fighting chance. :thumbup:

I am so terribly sorry ... my heart is breaking for you. Poor little Brody ... I just knew he would make it, he was such a fighter. We will continue to keep you all in our prayers during this sad, sad time. God bless you.

I am so sorry. I was hoping he would pull through.

Oh, this makes me so sad. :( I thought of him yesterday when you posted a picture of a littermate. I so wanted Brody to make it and thrive as I'm well aware you did too. He certainly had the best of care. I am so very sorry it simply wasn't meant to be.....

Honey, I am so sorry about this! You and Brody fought the good fight and did all you could do. You just remember that!!! You did not give up and neither did little Brody. He just grew tired of fighting and had to go to Rainbow Bridge where he is strong like all the other little puppies there with him! He will never grow weak or fail there!!! Please don't listen to any "I told you so's"...they did not have the heart you did to do what you did. You faced a very adverse situation head on and gave it your all...be proud of yourself. Devote yourself to the rest of the babies and each day will get easier for you!

I am so sad to hear about little Brody. You did all you could for him.

My heart is breaking for you :( I just found this thread and was reading the of the little miracle named Brody. Find comfort in knowing you gave that precious bundle of fur every chance at life....you loved him, you held him, you fed him, and you stood up to a vet who treated him (and you) with total lack of respect. I applaud you for your efforts with Brody through the tears of sadness at his passing.

Rest in peace Brody - enjoy your life of health and happiness across Rainbow Bridge.

so sorry to hear about brody. It's so strange though because I found a puppy the day before yesterday and made arrangements to pick him up. Then yesterday my MIL started being difficult and doing everything in her power to make my plans fail (she was supposed to babysit). Well yesterday I posted a thread about the whole situation and everyone here gave me so much encouragment that it motivated me, even more, to go get him. So I contacted the breeder and rearranged the dates. She asked me if I had a name for him yet, and I had not because I was discouraged about the whole thing. So as I sat and prayed about my MIL and my situation with our new boy, I came up with his name! I was between a couple of names, but I really liked Tyson (Ty) and Carter. But as I prayed I felt the need to say his name. So I did it...Brody! WOW, I didn't intend on that name to happen cause I was very fond of TY. I never really thought much about it but my new boy was named after your little angel. I cant explain it because that wasn't the name I wanted, but I didnt even feel the need to change it because something about it grew on me. Maybe it was coincedence but I really think it was the work of someone higher up! Here is proof to what I am saying...this is the thread I posted about my MIL and you can see the post were I posted his new name http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=37499

So his name officially: Sir Buckeye Brody of Ohio State-Brody for short (in honor of your brave little angle)!

when i saw this, i never thought this would happen...you are the best mommy and did brody good. he knows you love him and will always know that. you did the best thing and being with him makes it all the better for brody. good luck to you

You were right to go with your intuition and keep fighting for Brody. Instead of passing away in a cold, sterile vet's office he went in the comfort and security of his own surroundings. Besides all you did for him you also gave him a comfortable place to pass on. GOD SPEED to lil Brody. Remembering you in my prayers.

My prayers are with you and little Brody right now. May he rest in peace. And play his little heart out at the rainbow bidge.

Wow that is so sweet I have tears Christy you I have spoke on the phone daily since the little man was here. I know for a fact that you did all that you could dont beat yourself up over this YOU are GREAT for continuing even after the vet said NO!!!! You are a hero in my eyes you tried and you fell head over heals for him as did I, I wasnt sure that I was going to post here b/c I know that you feel that you let me down but you didn't I promise. I am posting it for all of the YT members to see I think you are great for trying.... Please keep in touch Love You and you Family so much :)

You guys had me crying all over again. Thank you so much for all of your kind words and for making me feel better. Porkieyorkie..you aren't going to beleive this but a year ago I had a male yorkie Named Ty. He passed away and he was my baby. Matter of fact i wasn't going to breed because it broke my heart losing him. I cried for weeks and i'm not exaggerating at all. I loved him with my whole heart and still miss him. So I would be honored if you named your little guy Brody or Ty cause both were my special lil guys. Dogieluver thanks for being there even when i got mad and bugaboosmom thank you for all of your advice as well..yougetthesmiles..you are quickly becoming a good friend of mine and I would already be lost without you. To all of you I can't thank you enough. I really thought he would make it but I had put him in gods hands and god knew what was best for him even when I didn't..

I'am truly sorry, you are in my thoughts, let his memory shine .

My prayers are with you

:Hugs:
