Abracadabra

I want to thank all of you who followed and commented on Abbey's illness and passing this past Saturday. I'm am so grateful for this forum and it's caring members. I've only been here a little over a year and am not a prolific poster, but you all were the only ones I knew I could "talk" with that day.

She had turned 12 this past April and was slowing down. Our walks had become ambles, but she still had her appetite and joy for car rides. Just 2 weeks ago, she was my 13 month old grand daughter's high chair buddy!!

Last week she was panting more, then seemed to be struggling with her breathing. By Thursday evening she did not want to eat or drink, but she seemed more comfortable. When she still refused anything I fixed her, I took her to the emergency vet. After xrays, ultrasound, some labs,found. she had fluid in her abdomen and lungs were starting to fill too. I knew rationally that she was very ill, and my heart did not want to put her through anything invasive, so, she made her way over the bridge.

My emotions are still very close to the surface. I can't verbally talk about her yet without tearing. I did put some pictures up if you want to see her sweet beautiful face.

:hearts: Abracadabra

You will always be in mine.
Your Mom

:ghug: To my forum family

I am so sorry that you had to put her down. You did the right thing. She is happy, pain free and running with all of our other OES that have crossed. Bless you for doing what was right for her.

I am so sorry for your loss. Try to focus on the many great experiences you had with her.
I am so sorry you have lost your baby, most of us know the hurt you are going through, it tears at your heart and you think you will never get through it. Try to think only of the good times and how much love she gave you in her life and how you loved her so much you couldn't let her suffer. She is free now as she was years ago a beautiful girl in the prime of life playing over the Bridge with all our angels. xxxx
God bless your baby, thinking of you all and when the cloud of sadness blows away may there be a life of wonderfull sweet memories flowing and bringing back a smile on your face.

Love to you all at this sad time. :ghug:
God Speed baby girl!

that grow forever in your heart
