    Prayers for both of you, Gayle and Rose. I cannot imagine what you're going through, but you've both taken the first positive step in getting your life back. Keep that momentum going!

    Rose, I am so sorry. I know just how you feel. It SUCKS!!!

    Candace, I've talked with the EAP people.

    I've found a condo, I'm going tomorrow to view and sign up. Figure I'll be back to a "normal" life by Wednesday.

    Today is likely Sasha's last day. She just seems so tired. It's such an effort for her to lay down or get up. I'm just not sure I can do it. I've had her for 14 years.

    Gayle, I am glad you have the EAP and are looking at the condo...at least you will have a base to work from and make home for a while.

    I really feel for you with poor Sasha. At this point in your life, with so much emotion going on, the advice to put your own feelings second to what is best for Sasha is going to be difficult, if not seeming to be downright cruel.

    If today is the day that Sasha flies to the Bridge, can one of your parents go with you? Do you have any friends in Sundre? Heck...I can be there in an hour. Let me know.

    Maybe there is a vet that would come to the house, whenever the decision is made.

    Sasha has had several more years of being loved and doing better because of your devotion to her. Others would have given up on her quite a while ago.

    The vet here in Sundre won't cremate and give me her ashes in an urn. So I will take Sasha with me to Calgary tomorrow morning and we will see our own vet. I don't know how I will carry on without her. My whole life is crumbling. But I think it's best for her. It is so painful to watch her try to move around and get comfortable.

    But the good part is, you won;t be carrying on without her, as she will be with you always in spirit. Her pain and suffering will be over, and she will become your own furry guardian angel, with you every step of the way as you begin your new future. I promise.

    And Rose, we are thinking of you, too. We love you!

    Hi,

    My intent was not to highjack this thread with my own troubles, this is about Gayle and her Sasha right now. I just wanted her to know that somewhere in the world out there, somebody is going through the same thing as her.

    Lighting a candle and singing soft songs for Sasha.
