Sassy

[gemini9961]

I'm so sorry Alyssa. My prayers for you and Sassy in this hard time.

All of us want the best for our furkids, we understand your decision. You've given Sassy a wonderful life. To lovingly let her go when it's time is a gift to her. She'll be out of pain. That quote you added is very beautiful. Sassy will always be part of our PT family.

Oh no. I can't stop crying.

Fenway & I are sending you & Sassy a giant hug right now. Please take care.

You are in our prayers....Almost everyone who has dogs and raises and loves them as a member of our family has to face this time sometime....I've never had to yet, but our sweet dalmatian (although in great health) will be 14 in about 2 weeks, so I truly understand what you must be going through. No judgements here...just respect for loving and caring for your sweet Sassy as you have.....

Please reconsider being with her when she crosses. As hard as it may be on you, it may make her feel more comfortable.

{{{HUGS}}}} to Sassy, you and your family.

[M&M's Mommy]

Sassy & you are in my thoughts & prayers.

This post is coming straight from my broken heart...

but to tell you the truth I am more happy then sad for Sassy. I am very sad that I have to see her leave me forever, but I know keeping her alive will show all the selfishness I could ever have. I've cried a few times already this past week, but I have to say I am happy for her. She is in so much pain and it breaks my heart even more to see her this way, then to see her lying on the Vet's table dead. She will be happy and healthy again at the Rainbow Bridge playing with all her old doggie friends who have passed on and her new pettalk dog friends, and with her old budgie buddy Sunny as well. I know I will see her again someday and that makes it better. Trust me, my heart is broken. This is so unreal, coming home to nothing when I'm so used to see that wagging tail and shining black eyes, but I can't keep her alive. It would be utter torture. I know I will CRY alot, probably cry myself to sleep tommorow night and the following nights. I will cry at the vet's office. It has really sunken in yet that she is going to the RB, it won't for awhile. But I don't want to be sad anymore, I don't want to have the dreadful feeling and emptiness. I just want to be able to remember her with happiness.

Sadly, the dreadful day is almost upon us.

I am sorry, I know I'm rambling. I now have tears streaming down my face again.

Anyway, I also heard a lyric in a song today that really made me think:

"Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same" It's so true, especially for my situation right now.

but I have to say I am happy for her

You think just like me, maybe that's why we get along so well. I was happy for Thunder too, to finally be out of that pain. He didn't want to be here anymore he was miserable.

then to see her lying on the Vet's table dead

Don't think of it that way, think of her spirit just coming out of her body and being beside you again happy and young again. She'll only be gone in body form.

I find it was harder to think about the day coming then after it happened.
I cried alot before the day but after I was happy for him and knew he was still beside me.

Oh no, Alyssa! I am so, so sorry. I know nothing can be said to make this hard time easier, just know that all of us are here for you, wishing you well, and supporting the decisions one has to make in order to do the most they possibly can.

***HUGS*** for Sassy, for you, and for your family in this time.

I know it'll be a forever image, but please reconsider holding Sassy in your loving arms. It'll be comforting to her.
