Sad news- if you're having a great day, skip this

edited May 2013 in Chit Chat
My dog, Lucy lost her battle with cancer. It became obvious on Friday that the latest round of chemo had failed. We took her to her favorite vet to be euthanized on Friday. We stayed with her until the end, petting and talking to her until she reached the other side. It was a very gentle and peaceful death. 

This has been very difficult time for my family, including the dog that we rescued, last year, to be a companion for Lucy. I appreciate all the kind comments that you offered. Also, Muppet's 'You know your from..' thread provided a much needed diversion for me on Friday. 

Thank you

    It's so hard to lose a pet, because they really are members of our family. I'm so sorry for your loss. It sounds like she passed away peacefully, surrounded by people who loved her, and she wasn't scared or alone. For that, you deserve to be commended. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

    I'm so sorry Maire. I'm choked up right now. I have trouble with dog deaths. It's probably the thing I'm most emotional about because mine are so precious to me. I understand where your at and my heart is with you. Lots of support going your way right now.

    What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated.

    Poor puppy! That is sad news. I am very sorry you had to go through that, but at least you were there with Lucy. I'm sure she had a wonderful life with y'all and is in a much better place now, pain free.

    Thank you all so much. There really are no words to describe my grief, but it's easier to share this with you people than it is to share face to face with someone. Your kind words mean so much.
