Jack Is Ill: He is going to the bridge...(Update)

[CultureJunky]

The vet phoned around 11.30 this morning, he managed to get a concious X-ray this morning of Jack. However, the damage to his heart is just too bad and his breathing has deteriorated. He's gravely ill and there is nothing left to try for him now.

I will be going around 5.00pm this evening with Kevin and we will let him go to the bridge.

Thank you everybody for your kind thoughts, prayers and words, they have been a great source of comfort to me to read them, and know that people were thinking of Jack.

I know there is a crack in my heart that will never heal.

I will post in memorial soon as I know this will help the grieving process for us.

I will bury him in the garden by the fish pond, and plant a rose tree there for him. I will also buy a memorial plaque for him to put down.

I will never forget him, he has made me happier and given me more joyous, funny and happy moments in my life than I have ever had before. The times when I was with Jack were the happiest times I have ever had in my life, and I know eventually it is this I will remember about him.

Thank you everyone.

Kisses and headbutts to all your own furry friends and companions.

Kate, Kevin & Sunny xx

Kate,

I am sitting here in tears. I know the pain you feel. I really do. And PT helped me so much went we lost our Lilith. There is nothing I can really say to take the pain away. Spend some time with him before he passes and tell him over and over again how much you love him. Tell him he has touched many hearts and there will be a huge welcoming committee of PT Angels waiting for his arrival. Tell him it is ok to let go. That you know he is hurts but you want him to feel good again. He will understand and thank you. You are giving to Jack to most loving thing you can give him...peace. Everytime a PT kitty is taken it reminds me so vividly of my own loses of my beloved pet angels. Know we will all be with you, Kevin, Sunny & Jack. May his passing be quick and peaceful.

(((((HUGS))))))
to you all.

I am in tears too and very sorry to hear that Jack can't make it. It will be so hard to say goodbye, but I know that is what he would want in this situation. He will be free of pain and not suffer anymore. You have done so much for him and I'm sure he is thankful for that. Keep him in your heart forever and try to think of the good times you had. The pain will lessen in time.

I will keep you in my thougts on this sad day, and I hope Jack will have a peaceful journey to the RB.

Rest in peace, sweet Jack!

Big hugs to you.

Dear, dear Jack. I am so sorry. And I wish the other vet had given you more information so you knew what was happening.

Love and hug him, he knows his humans, and will be comforted. I pray it will be peaceful for him.
