Putting Belle to sleep

[Sudilar]

You have my heartfelt sympathy. I know EXACTLY what you are feeling. Just a bit more than 2 months ago, I had to do the same. I still hurt terribly.

The Final Battle

If it should be that I grow frail and weak
And pain should keep me from my sleep
Then you must do what must be done
For this, the last battle, can't be won.
You will be sad- I understand
Don't let your grief then stay your hand
For this day, more than all the rest
Your love and friendship stand the test.
We've had so many happy years
What is to come can hold no fears
You'd not want me to suffer, so
When the time comes, please let me go.
I know in time you too will see
It is a kindness that you do for me
Although my tail, it's last has waved
From pain and suffering I've been saved.
Don't grieve that it should have to be you
Who has decided this thing to do
We've been so close, we two, these years
Don't let your heart hold any tears.

I am so sorry to hear about Belle.This is one of the saddest times
of having a pet. The final separation from them. Sue, thank you
for posting that poem. It is beautiful & helped me a lot when Buddy
left me for Rainbow Bridge. You & your family will be in my prayers.
