Bailey the Labrador went to the RB

I'm too upset to post anything more than this right now. I'm going to compose myself and I'll write more later. Thanx, friends.

I'm so sorry that she didn't make it. RIP, Bailey. Be happy at the Bridge.

Mike called as I was on my way to the office and told me "Bailey's in heaven." I wasn't expecting it because last I heard, she was improving greatly. I still don't know all the details because, as I said, I was driving and I got so upset that I had to pull the car over. I ended up going back home because I was due to receive a furniture delivery today and they screwed up the delivery times, so I'll have to go back later. As it turns out, Bailey did have a brain tumor. Mike had just dropped her off at the emergency clinic and was on his way home when they called and told him that she took a turn for the worse. He said (his words), "End it." He didn't go back to be w/his little Bailey. He let her die with strangers. I had given instructions to the vet to call me so that I could be w/Bailey should they need to put her to sleep. But the emergency clinic didn't get those instructions. I'm so sick about this, I can't stop shaking. Mike said "Thank goodness Julie (another friend) was w/me. I don't know what I would've done otherwise." That's when I had to pull the car over. Oh yeah?! Well, what about Bailey? You had someone w/you. Didn't she deserve the same kindness?

I apologize again, friends, for my rant. I don't want to use PT as my own personal forum. But you've all supported me in this and you know my feelings on the subject of helping our beloved pets to the RB. I'm feeling so guilty that I wasn't w/her. What a crappy, crappy day.

The furniture store just called and they're on their way to my office, so I've got to go but I'll check in later. Thanx, friends, for all your loving words and support. And I know that now Bailey appreciates it, too.

Bless your sweet and very kind heart. We'd all be so lucky to have even just one special friend like you.

Rest In Peace Bailey :( Play hard at the bridge sweetheart :(

we all grieve differently. tonight, mike will be at home, for the first time alone without bailey. try to believe, he was doing the best that he could at the time. and when bailey opened her eyes, she was surrounded by friends and other well loved animals. i am so sorry

:( Oh Mary I am so so sorry.. May this be best for this wittle one.. Atleast you were there for the support this baby needed.. May this Baby Angel Speed to RainBow Bridge & be with our Corinna & Beloved PT Angels.. Big Huggss for me & the girls..

I am so very sorry to hear this. :( Rest In Peace Bailey.

You must feel like you have lost a friend in Bailey too. :( I am very sure
that Bailey knew you cared very much about her. She is at peace now
with no more pain or suffering.

I am so sorry to hear about your loss.
It is never easy to loose our babies, even though they
are in our hearts forever.
RIP Bailey and watch over your humans.

I'm so sorry about Bailey. :( Please try not to be too upset with your friend, everyone handles things differently.I wish you could have been with Bailey, both for you and for her.It's not your fault you weren't there and I'm sure she knew you loved her.

I'm so sorry to hear Bailey's battel has ended, but she is at peace now.
She may have passed with strangers, but they showed her love by helping her pass to the bridge in peace.

Rest easy Bailey. :(

How sad. What a loving, caring friend you are. Please know that Bailey is now in the loving company of our RB babies. Bailey will never ever be alone or ill again.

I am so sorry that Bailey is gone. I know how you feel about being with our furbabies when they have to be released from their pain. Some people can't deal with it: sometimes denial, sometimes the pain is too much to bear. Bailey knew that she was loved. She is watching over you now.
RIP, dear Bailey.
Hugs to you.

I'm so sorry for your loss.... it is the greatest pain I have ever known... and I imagine it is the same for you.

RIP sweet Bailey.

I'm so sorry to hear this. :( :( RIP Bailey.

I am so sorry. :(
