Abby Maria Stormhands
1996 - 2008
Well, it certainly wasn’t easy, but it was the best thing for her. Everyone said their goodbyes this morning. Luke doesn’t know it was a permanent goodbye, but he’s gone for at least a week and it will be easier when he comes back and she’s just not here.
It wasn’t the vet I wanted. It was the one who hadn’t seen her before. But she looked at the charts and then examined her. She thought the hip wasn’t dislocated, but that it was a huge tumor. Abby had lost over 2 lbs. since the June visit. Thevet agreed that it was time. She said the other option would have been to remove the leg. But we agreed it wasn’t fair to put Abby through that stress.
It was the right thing to do. But it still sux.
Awww - was it Okay? As well as can be?
I’m sorry, Corin. It was time, but that doesn’t make it easy. :-\
Dang, sorry about that, Corin. It’s never easy to let them go.
Corin - Hugs across the miles, doing right is seldom easy. Though, remember, there is a field by the rainbow bridge. OB & LSA http://www.petloss.com/poems/maingrp/rainbowb.htm
