Alicia, I'm sorry I haven't seen this thread until now. My heart goes out to you on this day and tomorrow, along with days to come. I know you're doing the best thing you could ever do for your dear Thunder.

I know losing someone who has been with you so long will tear you apart at first. Though I haven't lost a dog, and I haven't seen a dog that I've known for a long time go downhill, I can somehow relate to how you feel. As you know, my dad passed away a little under a year ago. The wound in my heart still feels so fresh, but I know everything is alright.

If you ever need to talk when you're feeling down, feel free to PM me if it might help.

Huge ((((((HUGS)))))) and good vibes headed your way.
