Duke's Prognosis*Not Good

[slick]

I saw this thread first thing this morning but couldn't bring myself to post. My eyes started leaking right away and now as I read the responses and your last post, I have LES all over again. It's funny, but even though we have not met, I can feel the pain that prevails. I too, know how hard of a decision it is and how difficult it is to let go and say good-bye.

Val, please know that my prayers are coming out to you right now and I'll light a candle for Duke.

Big {{{hugs}}} to you

Dear Valerie,

Your words are a testament to that special bond between dogs and their best friends. Your Duke and you have that special bond, and I think we all have loved him since we met him here on Pet Talk.

You've had a rough few weeks and I am so sorry. Please know that you are in our thoughts and our prayers on every issue that you are dealing with right now.

Val, You know how I feel about your sweet boy, I have never met him but I just love him so much. Like everyone has said he knows how much you love him, you are doing all that is humanly possible. I pray it isn't his time yet.

Oh Val... I hurt so deeply for you. I will light a candle tonight for Duke. There has been so much sadness lately, I did not think my heart could break any more than it already has.. but it feels like it's breaking all over again as I read this post. Dear Val, you and Duke are in my prayers, my thoughts, my heart. How I wish I could do more. Please give Duke some gentle kisses for me. We are all here for you Val, as you walk this most difficult and painful path.

Love, Jess

Oh dear, I just saw this thread I'm hoping there will be a miracle for you and your precious boy. And if not, I hope you can gain happiness in knowing that you provided Duke with everlasting love and that he will always find ways to repay you. Come life or death, your bond with Duke shall never break. It will only strengthen with the knowledge that your lives were both blessed by each other.

Val, I am so sorry to hear this news. I know that Duke means so much to you, and he's very special to all of us as well. I'm hoping for the best, but if this is his time to go, remember that he lived a long, wonderful life with you, and he knows how much you love him. {{hugs}}
