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
