We let Holly go on 7-4-11, I held on too long, she stopped eating and walking on her own 4 days before. I just wanted her to go on her own, but it did not work that way for us. I could not take watching her like that anymore, so called my vet and she came out on the 4th, to let Holly go. She was in her own bed and I held her when she left us. I am so grateful for that, but it hurts so much. Holly fought so hard, to stay with us, but we had to let her go. I miss you Holly Bolly, and I thought I could post this tonight without crying, but I can't................. I still see you when I close my eyes like you were before you got sick, the dog I had known for so long. I cherish the time that we had together, I don't regret not letting you go when your doc advised it.
You fought hard to stay with me, and rebouned when he thought you couldn't. I will always remember those last 7 weeks, and how you chased frogs, and rolled in the grass. I am only sorry I held you 4 days too long. But I loved you so much, and it took time to realize it was not my battle to fight, it was yours. I love you and miss you Holly
