    Thank you for your kind words candace, I still am holding on to a bit of hope as you do, but i can see he has given up the battle, and i guess that is his way of telling me enough now mum, let me go,well i have to tell myself that anyhow,if only to help me feel a little better.

    I am so dreading this weekend, it is gonna be so darn hard.

    Could you please crosspost it for me, i have no idea how, and cannot think quite straight right now.

    This is going to be very hard on my Melissa too, she adores Ash, they have quite a special bond, he has never ever scratched her, me plenty of times, and she was the one who brought him to me when she was about 8 yrs old,thanks to her and Ash i discovered i could tolerate kitties, even though i have an allergy to them, had missed out on the love of kitties for many years until Ash arrived and the rest his history.

    She thinks he can keep going, but i know he can't.

    I will pray that Ash will make a sharp turnaround and you can cancel your appointment, but if not you are doing the right thing.

    I know exactly how you are feeling, as do many of us here. The lump in your throat, the ache in your heart. The doubt of if it is actually the right time and right thing to do. I still have those doubts about Taz and he's been gone for 7 months now. I know I did the right thing, but it doesn't make it any easier.
    I am going through those emotions right now with you again. Tears, tight chest, shaking hands.

    Hugs to you from this side of the world.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I felt that way about my RB gigi for a long long time, I guess its just natural to feel that way. In hindsight now I know I did the right thing.

    I am so sorry for your worry and pain. Such a painful decision we have to make for those fur children who love. Sending hugs and hoping that you and Ash find peace together in your love for each other.

    We all are, Carole. But I think the miracle happened when you and Ash met and he became a part of your life. He will always be with you, you know that. And our hearts are with you too.

    Much love,

    Oh Carole, I'm so sorry to read this.

    You and Ash have been through so much together, shared so much life and love. I know you are cherishing the time you have together with him, as he is doing with you. May God grant you both peace and comfort.

    Love and hugs to you and your family, Carole, and gentle pets to dearest Ash,

    Carole ~ I'm so sorry to hear this. I'm praying for a miracle too.

    But, if it's not to be and he has to leave us, I hope that it is a peaceful passing.

    Gentle hugs to you all.

    Carole, Ash is a blessing to you, and yes I know that feeling too. I lost Buffy last summer, and I am still grieving over her. I just hate to see you go through this now. Just know that you are in all of our thoughts.

    Thank You, kittycats_delight for my new siggy!!!
