This is my sweet baby Thatcher Dragon. Early this past week, she began to get sick. It appeared she had a stomach bug. What we didn't know until Tuesday was that she had a thymoma on her sternum that resulted in myasthenia gravis and megaesophagus. We had her in the hospital and they had begun treatment. On Wednesday night/Thursday morning, she developed aspiration pneumonia. This brought her downhill. Too much. On Thursday, I had to say goodbye to my absolutely beautiful, sweet, loving, kind, amazing baby girl. This is the hardest thing I have ever done in my life. She was too young and this came out of nowhere. I have honestly never hurt so much. Never. I wish I could express in words how much this little girl meant to me. Her 54 lbs. seems a whole lot bigger now that it is a big hole in our life. My insides hurt. We cry. A lot. I will love her forever. We were the perfect pair, the two of us, both a little crazy. She was there for me. Always.
I miss her.
So much.
I am sooooo sorry to hear about your loss. :( hugs!

ReplyDeleteI lost my sweet, Zoe Rosebud, 2 years ago, and it still hurts. She was a yellow lab and my companion for 14 years, but her 2nd bout with Cancer was too much.
Cherish the time you had with her; she knows you love her!
Loads of hugs! We lost Milo in May to cancer, so I know the heart ache and pain you are feeling.
ReplyDeleteI am so, so sorry. Your heart must feel so broken right now.

ReplyDeleteoh Jennifer- I am sorry. I know how hard it is, we had to put one down last year and it was rough. big hugs to you-
ReplyDeleteI feel so bad for you, Jennifer. I'm so sorry! It's never easy to lose a dog. They have an unconditional love and a total devotion. :( You did everything you could for her. While she passed away too early, I'm sure she had a happy life.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about this Jennifer. Though I don't have a dog, I know how hard it is to lose a pet. Take care.
ReplyDeleteSo terribly sorry to read of your loss. I know how big a whole it leaves in your heart to lose a pet, especially a young one. I lost my beautiful Bagpuss a couple of years ago now, he was only 3, so it was a terrible shock, and hurt so much. Time will ease the pain, and you'll always have your memories that you made together, and i'm sure she had a wonderful life, and will be looking down on you and sending her love. <3 xx
ReplyDeleteI am so very sorry, Jennifer! Hugs my friend!
ReplyDeleteSo Very sorry to hear about your loss of your best friend. Our pets are so much a part of our lives and family and I can imagine how sad it is to loose one. I will be thinking of you and hope you have lots of photos and happy memories to look back on!
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry. Too soon, too fast, too short...sending you big big hugs!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry, Jingle, I feel your pain and it's the worst. Sending you hugs and love. You're not alone.
ReplyDeleteSo, so sorry Jingle. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteHUGE HUGS! I am so sorry. I was there a few years ago. It was very difficult. Know that your baby is out of pain. It took me two years to get another dog, because I loved my Jazzie so much. I didn't believe people that the pain will fade, but it did. There are so many days that I still think of My Jazzie girl always at my heels. I knew that where ever I was I could look down and she would be there. I know you will have similar memories of your baby. HUGS.... time is the only thing that will heal that hole in your heart. Just reserve a corner of your heart for her so you can keep her with you forever!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear that!!!! Your post made me tear up....pets are FAMILY, and losing a family member hurts beyond anything else. I lost my fur baby several years ago and it still hurts. But your life (and hers) were better for having each other in it. Hugs!!!
ReplyDeleteIt is so hard to lose a piece of your heart.
ReplyDeleteMy condolences Jingle.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry for your loss and hope the pain lessens quickly. {{{hugs}}}

I am so sorry, and know exactly the pain you are feeling. Recently I had to let my dear horse "go," and the vet said something beautiful, which I absolutely believe is true for our dogs and cats too. He said, "He (my horse) will just fall asleep, and he will wake up in another home." I know my horse and my precious dogs are waiting for me in that other home.
ReplyDeleteShe's so pretty...sorry to hear you've lost her. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry :( Hugs to you!

ReplyDeleteWe had our Brandy, a lab mix, for 16 years, and he's been gone 12 years or so now, but he was such a crazy sweet being - still miss him so much. Oh the stories I could tell :)) You'll get to that point, too......
