Canine Myasthenia Gravis - Jesse's at the Bridge.

RIP Jesse.

Maggie - how are his parents doing? And I agree, there now won't be any second guessing if they did the right thing. Jesse did it his way. Maybe he was sending them a message - ya' think?

To answer, here's an email from Jesse's Dad...
To Our Dear Friends:

We sincerely thank each and every one of you for the loving and compassionate support, friendship, and comfort with that you showered us with over the past ten days. Your calls, visits, and prayers are so greatly appreciated. You were not only a comfort to us, but a big part of helping Jesse remain as comfortable as possible as he slipped away from us.

As you now know, we ultimately lost the battle, and today we had to do the only humane thing left to do; put our puppy to rest. Then, in death, as in life, Jesse was once again amazing and giving. As the vet stepped onto the deck and turned to place his briefcase and the IV bag on a chair, Jesse took one final deep breath and passed on his own. As gut wrenchingly tragic and sad as this whole ordeal has been, we would not have traded one moment of the joy, devotion, and love that Jesse gave us in his way too short life.

As the emotions over the past week have ranged from sorrow to sadness, from anger to disappointment, and from helplessness to sheer disbelief, we know that we are truly blessed to not only have the best dog in the world, but the best friends in the world also.

We thank you from the bottom of our broken hearts.
