Karen when I saw the title of this post I started crying. I didn't even need to read further. I knew he would let you know but oh how heart wrenching when you realize that it truly is time.. Your farewell post is a beautiful tribute to a very special dog that we all feel we knew too. Please know that you did what needed to be done. Cody just couldn't do it any more. His body had given all he had to give and you gave him the gift of no more pain. Now you, my dear friend, will have some hard days ahead but please believe me when I say that will lessen. Each time we lost a furkid to the Bridge, for the first few weeks whenever my husband and I would pass each other in the house we would just grab each other and hold tight and cry. Words were not necessary. Soon the wound began to heal. Karen you have been on my mind constantly and still are. I hope it helps to know that I am praying for you still. If you need to call to cry or vent or whatever please do. {{{{hugs}}}} to you. Wish I could deliver them in person.
