    I was just checking in to see how our little Princess Cassie did in her Vet appointment? I do hope things are going well for her now, and she is feeling better.

    We have decided to end Cassie's life if she is not better within the week. She is suffering and she is in a terrible state now. The vets are trying so hard, and she was taking this expermental medicine that made her so bad that she can hardly breath and is walking even worse then she was before. Our sweetest, most adorable, kindest little pugalett girl is having a sleepover at the hospital tonight. She has been coughing and gagging an aweful lot the past two days, and the vets are assuming that she asperated some of her vomit and now she has pnemonia and she is very much worse. When I saw Cassie today before she went to the vet I wanted to have her misery ended, but we so badly want her to pull out of this that we are going to give her every chance that we have. We are giving her one last chace. The vet told us that she does have a chance for pulling through this. She will have a permenant head tilt and her nerves on one side of her face have been damaged, due to the inner ear infection, so half of her face droops, while the other half is normal. That is all just comsmetic and we will love her regardless of the physical damage that the inner ear infection and ruptered eardrums have caused. As long as she is once again happy, that's all that we care about.

    Cassie is spending the night at the vet so she can have IV fluids and antibiotics for her new pnemonia. They are also going to take some x-rays and do more blood work to check her white cell count. If the time for Cassie to go to the R.B. is soon, at least we can know that we tried everything to make her better, and gave it our full effort.

    I wish the news was better We love Cassie so much. We just wish we could have had more then a couple of years with her. It seems like just last week her joyous little self entered our lives, our home, and our hearts. I guess this is the only bad part about adopting an elderly dog. It is so wonderful to provide them the home that they deserved, but did not have before. But their time is so short. I am still glad that we have had the chance to give Cassie the life that she deserved but never had but we are dreading the next step. This is the hardest part...deciding when to finally give up the fight for life and let her pass away. I feel scared and so sad at the decision to give her until the end of the week. If by next Friday her quality of life has not returned, then we will say goodbye to our darling little friend.

    Our hearts are aching now.

    Leslie, I'm so sorry to hear that Cassie is doing so poorly. I know it's very hard to put an animal to sleep but I'm sure you'll know if and when the time is right. Prayers are on the way for poor little Cassie.

    Leslie, you and your mom, and sweet Cassie, are continuing to be in our prayers. You are doing everything a loving pet owner would do to help salvage her life, but your approach is precious, knowing that she needs quality to her life as well. I will continue to pray that she can be healed and continue her life with you.

    Love,
    Logan

    Leslie,

    I am so very sorry for Cassie, You & your Mom. At least
    you all know that Cassie is being given EVERY chance to
    regain her health and restore some quality of life to her
    time on this earth. We all know what a hard decision you
    all might have to make, if things don't improve for her.
    Cassie's eye's will tell you when she needs to rest over
    Rainbow Bridge. Sending love, hugs & prayers for Cassie,
    You & your Mom. Liz.
