Sasha Begins Chemotherapy On Monday!

[furrykidsmother]

My eyes are watering as I type this. I am so very sad to hear this news and so very sorry that Sasha will not win this battle. I pray that you will have many, many, many more good days with your precious baby girl. I know that you will spoil her and love her and make her as happy and comfortable as possible. Cherish each day and each memory as I know you will. Please keep us updated, we love her too! I am also sending prayers that you will have strength and courage and that there will be a lot more time before Sasha will leave for the RB.

So very, very sorry to read this latest news of Sasha. She is such a beauty, such a gentle little soul. Do you think Sasha might like some softly scrambled eggs made with real cream? Perhaps with tiny flakes of salmon or tuna in. Nutritious, easy to digest, easy on the sore mouth. I hope she enjoys whatever she manages to eat and your days together are special. At times like this the rest of the world seems to recede and time almost stands still as every moment is savoured and treasured. It's really living in the moment, isn't it? Very precious times. Bitter-sweet. My thoughts are with you all. TopCat3 and her girls.

I'm so so sorry the prognosis is not better.

Do as your vet says and spoil her silly. She will adore all the extra attention and it will help you emotionally also.

Sad to hear of your cancer. Hey best of luck with your treatments & hope your better soon.. My furr babies all send lots of whisker kisses & prayers.. All paws up to you ..

[smokey the elder]

Oh, I'm so sorry. I totally agree with the vet; now's the time to spoil her with all the treats and "bad for you" food that she wasn't allowed to have. Bring on the goodies!

Susan, thank you for the update on Sasha. I don't think any cat could be more loved than your precious girl. I am sad for you and Murray, and sad for Sasha, but I hope each day with her will bring joy and happiness to the 3 of you.

Sweet and beautiful Sasha, enjoy the days you have left with your wonderful purrents. Love them and help them, sweeatheart, and enjoy all those forbidden kitty treats!

We are thinking of you all the time and hoping for a gentle time for you.

Susan ~ I'm so sorry to hear that Sascha is not doing well. Prayers to you and your family.

[momoffuzzyfaces]

It's so hard to see through the tears. I hope this makes sense.
Prayers will continue for you and precious Sasha. I'm praying that she will fool all the doctors and have lots more time with you. Love, hugs, and cuddles sometimes do more than medicine.

Sahas, sweetie, don't worry about a thing. Just enjoy being loved and loving your family. (((HUGS))) by the truckload are heading your way!

[sasha the cat]

Shutting down! She likes to sleep on my lap but today she has eaten perhaps 1 teaspoon of food and drank a very tiny amount of milk.

I went shopping for the things she can't resist: smoked turkey, breast of chicken, cream, kitten milk, more fresh salmon, cream cheese, etc...but she wants none of it.

Murray is at work; I don't have the heart to report this news to him. My heart is breaking into millions of pieces. I love Sasha and no words can express how much.

Thank you for listening; you are our comfort. Sasha's e-mail address is: [email protected]

[furrykidsmother]

Susan my (our) hearts are breaking right along with yours. I hope that you will have so much more time with her. Have you talked to the vet? Perhaps (as long as she isn't in any pain) they could give her something to inhance her appetite so that she can enjoy all those lovely treats you bought for her.

[sasha the cat]

Yes, Sasha has been on appetite enhancers for the last two weeks. They no longer work. We are now making her as comfortable as possible, keeping her hydrated, and offering Sasha all of her favourites. Sometimes she eats but each time, less and less.

We are fortunate that Sasha will not suffer the way my late Mother did. In Canada we are allowed to give our darling pets the gift of legalised voluntary euthanasia. Sadly, even though my late Mother had legal documents requesting this very same right, she suffered terribly. Quality of life was not honoured.

One day, perhaps even in my lifetime, Canadians will have the legal right to honour one's wishes for legal voluntary euthanasia in cases where there is absolutely no hope of a cure. Why my Mother could not have her specified, written wishes honoured will haunt me for the rest of my life.

Our darling Sasha, fortunately, will not suffer my beloved Mother's fate.

[momoffuzzyfaces]

Please whisper in her ear and tell her how very loved she is by us here at PT. When the time comes for her to make the journey to the RB, she will be met by a mob of our pets who are just waiting to meet her.

(((HUGS)))

[furrykidsmother]

I am sorry that your Mother's wishes were not honored, how terrible. Grateful though that Sasha will not have to suffer when the time comes. I am so sorry that she isn't taking much of her favorite treats. We know how much you love her and I wish I could offer you more than good thoughts and prayers!! I am at work and trying very hard not to cry. I have been trying to stay logged on and have been checking often so I don't miss any updates. I am hoping to hear an encouraging one!! We are here for you. If there is anything we can do please let us know.

My heart is broken for you. Just being there for her is what she really needs.

Lighting a vigil candle for her, when she decides to start her journey.
