This is my ANGEL. My BABY in so many ways. She passed over the rainbow bridge on May 8, 2003. She had had a fairly long battle with mammory cancer. I had taken her for surgery and put her though so much pain to have a lump removed that proved to be malignant. She recovered very well and was perfect or so it seemed for 5 months. On May 6th I found a pea size lump in almost the exact location as the previous lump. In 3 days 1 1/2 days following she went from a ok to not being able to walk...eat...pee or anything. When I took her to the vet the poor sweet angel couldn't even hold up her perfect little head. The vet did an examination and told me the cancer had been spreading internally with no real evidence to be seen she didn't even know it was happening herself until it was too late. She had to be euthenized. It tore out my heart. My vet who is and has always been a godsend gave me a little time with her to come to terms with what had to happen. I cuddled her and tried so hard not to cry just so she wouldn't think anything was wrong. But somehow that ANGEL knew she must let me know it was OK. She mustered up the strength to lift her head and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I called the vet into the room and said she said she was ready. I stayed with her the entire time and held her. When he administered the drugs to end her little life she looked up at me and closed her eyes and let out a big sigh. She was no longer in pain and she was happy. I still miss her everyday and as I write this I cry. She left the biggest hole in my heart. There will never be another like her. She was "MOMMA"S PRETTY PRINCESS" and she always knew it.
