Sue prayers and good thoughts are on the way for you and precious Shiloh {{Hugs}}. Spoil her and cherish every day.
*Tears* :(
Sue,
Just wanted to let you know that you & Shlloh are in my thoughts and
prayers.I pray that God grants her many, many more happy and painfree
days to come.Give tons of hugs & try to enjoy each and every precious
day. Hugs from Liz, Smokey & Maggie.
I'm so sorry to hear about Shiloh. I know it must be hard not to be sad around her. Give her a big hug for us, okay.
I'm so sorry to hear about Shiloh. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I have friends going through bone cancer with their dog. Like Shiloh it's untreatable and once the initial shock wore off they decided not to focus on it, just to enjoy their last few months with her. She was always pampered, but now they make that extra effort to take her to all her favorite spots and forget dog food she gets ham, fish, etc. They know the day will come when pain meds won't work and they'll have to make that decision, but for now their just enjoying the time with her...Hugs and prayers
So sorry to hear about Shiloh, but I know you'll cherish every minute together.
I'm so sorry :( I don't know you too well but from your posts I can tell just how much Shiloh means to you, atleast she's not in any pain at the moment and just try to make everyday as good as you can for her. I can't even imagine what you're going through :( :(
:( :( :( I know, I know. :( :( :(Quote:

Lord, please give Sue and Shiloh as much time together as possible before calling her home. Please fill Sue with your strength and love during this extremely heartwrenching time. Amen.

Oh, Sue.... I'm soo sorry to hear about this awful news. :( But I'm going to try to say HAPPY things. :) :p
I'm pretty sure that shiloh will be with for a very long time to come, Sue!
I will most deffineatley be praying for your sweet Shiloh. ;)
Dear Sue, no words are enough to tell you how sorry I am for Shiloh and you. Whoever said life is not fair was so right. It's not fair for you to go through so much grief in such a short time.
Please know that you will be both in my thoughts and prayers.
Alicia
Words cannot express my great appeciation of all of your kind words, thoughts and prayers. I am trying so hard not to feel sadness when I look at her. I speak to her in my "happy voice" and I hope all the hugging she is getting doesn't give my true feelings of unbearable sorrow away.
This morning the vet called and said that the bloodwork came back with no surprises. He wants to see her this week to check her bladder to see if it is growing......if it is then the end may be sooner.
I need to be strong and not mourn Shiloh BEFORE her passing, but it is so terminal....not like Killian (with him we could fight his diseases)......so hopeless.
Hugs to you all and be sure to give your furbabies all a big hug each and every day.
I'm so sorry :(
{{{hugs}}}
I hate to hear about a family going through something like this. I'm so sorry that you are.
Thinking of you and beautiful Shiloh and sending you both our love, Sue.

Sue, I hope you and Shiloh have been able to get outside and enjoy the day, today. It was just lovely here in SC. It always helps to be outdoors with our furry ones, I think.
Still praying, my friend. :)
Love,
Logan
[QUOTE=Logan]Sue, I hope you and Shiloh have been able to get outside and enjoy the day, today.
Yes, we took two walks today and I plan on doing that every day when the weather is tolerable (even when it snows) because she loves to go. The only problem is that when we are walking and it is nice and quiet, I start to think about how all three of us used to go for walks (Killian, Shiloh and I) all the time.......
She is eating only a little of her food (something I am supposed to watch out for), but she is eating goodies and people food. She wouldn't eat the tuna we gave her, though, and she never turned down people food before. I hope she starts to eat more tomorrow.
I'm glad Shi is enjoying her walks. It must be torture for you. I'm so sorry. I've been thinking of you constantly, and wishing I could give you a hug in person. She doesn't seem to be in pain, which is such a relief. Please tell her that her auntie Karen and cousin Klo love her very much.
You all are giving me the strength to go on. I only wish that all the love Shiloh is receiving from all over the world could save her! Again, from the bottom of my broken heart......thank you so much.
I am so sadden to hear about Shiloh.
I can not think or say anything that will give you
comfort.
I will wish that you have many more walks and charished days with her.
(((HUGS)))

Remember that Shiloh's Book of Memories hasn't been filled up -
there's still some blank pages ...
Enjoy each new day with her ... fill up some more pages.

Sue, know that I am thinking of you every day, even if I'm not posting here. There just doesn't seem to be words to deal with this. I wish for some warm sunny fall days to soothe Shiloh and you, even if the relief and pleasure can only be brief. Somewhere, someone must have the answer on how to face this type of situation. I am not the one because all I can do is cry.
As I am mostly on the Cat section, I only saw this thread now :(
OMG, this is terrible news..... . Isn't there anything rhat can be done to save her anymore? This must be so hard for you and your family... . Give your sweetheart Shiloh a gentle hug from me :)
You and Shiloh are, of course, in our prayers.
My "Aunt" Dottie, whom I may have mentioned before here on Pet Talk, was a smoker who died of lung cancer. The long summer she was dying, she told my mother (they were lifelong best friends, born two days apart) that it was okay, she was glad to at least have time to say good-bye to people.
This is your sweet time to enjoy Shiloh, knowing what is coming, but treasuring every quality moment you can have. There will be a time for more greiving later, but for now, just love her up. Give her a great big hug from me, okay? My very first dog was a Shepherd mix, smartest dog in the whole wide world. Aunt Dottie, by the way, *always* had a German Shepherd, my whole life. The first one, though, Kaiser, I never met. He was skittish of small children, and I was too completely fearless to be trusted not to run over to hug him.
I hope it's not growing and that that gives you just a little more time together. *HUGS*
Thinking of you and Shiloh. I'm happy to hear she's enjoying her walks.
I'm so sorry to hear! Best wishes and prayers are heading both your ways!
Sue, just to let you know you and your sweet girl are still in my thoughts and prayers.
{{hugs}}

Poor baby! I'm sorry! I can't imagine one of my dogs leaving like that....
PRAYERS FOR SHILIOH!
Thank you for your continued prayers. We are having a very hard time here. Shiloh was up almost all night asking to go outside...but not having in her anything to urinate out. Tomorrow is her follow up vet visit and I fear the worst. She is no longer eating anything but a few crumbs of goodies. Shes's been out almost all morning (which is not like her...she stays inside with us always). It was a beautiful morning at least. The end is nearer than I thought... I hope we don't have to make that decision tomorrow... I would have liked at least one more month.
Pray that I have the strength to do what must be done.
Prayers going out for you and Shiloh, Sue. I am so sorry.
Oh Sue, I wish there was something I could do, anything to help you in this time of hardship. I'm in tears here reading everyones posts. There sure is a lot of love going out to Shiloh & you, and you's surely deserve it. I want you to know that we've been & will continue to think about you's everyday. I pray for only the best for Shiloh.
{{{hugs}}} sweetie.
Herrow??
Oh, HI, Killian!
Nice you hear frum ya! ...
Sure! We'll hook ya rite up with your Mom ... Yapp away!! ...
HI, MOM, Killian here!
Sure do *miss* you, Mom - an Shiloh, too.

your Sister Shiloh isn't feeling well. Maybe it's time to Call her up here
to The Rainbow Bridge to get her fixed up.
I sed "But God - Mom will be so lonesome wiffout any Dawgs inna howze..."
He sed not to wurrie ... there's a few Shepherds inna Shelter that
need a Gud Mom ... and if you don't go *pick* wun ...
HE's gonna send a Pup ober to sit onna back porch! http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/wink.gif

/s/ Killian
--------------------------------
<sniff> http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/frown.gif
We got it, Killi ... we'll put it onna Pet Talk Wire rite now.
Say "HI" to our GranMom (wiffa big *kissie*) fur us, will ya?
/s/ the Prayer Pups
My heart is just breaking for you.
All I can offer are prayers!
Lots of prayers for you and sweet Shiloh!!! :(
That is beautiful, Phred, Cinder and Smoke... You always know EXACTLY what to pray for. Hugs.
I have to look at it that way....she'll be with Killi, the one she loved the best.
I just have to be sure that her time is completely used up...look at every angle...could the med be causing her not to eat? Fear of a pill being hid in the food? Is she emptying her bladder fully anyway...but just has the feeling of having to "go"? The vet will be getting a lot of questions from me tomorrow. Right now I have a call in asking about giving her something for her stomach if the Piroxicam is causing a problem. I want her with me as long as possible as long as she is not suffering, but is she in pain...she is so strong...how will I know for sure.
This is so hard.
Thank you, again!!
Phred said it so well! That was beautiful.Quote:
