I was reading through your posts as you recommended ..I’m going through this now with my precious Mattie boy, chihuahuas mix jack russel , I’m gutted. Found out Monday was shocked to hear the news was broadsided ..he’s been my faithful and loving buddie for 10 yrs .. I’ve had many dogs through out my life but this little guy is the closest I’ve ever been to anything inc humans , it’s a waiting game it won’t be much longer but he’s not ready ..it’s a lot of care been sleeping on floor next to him as I’m afraid he’ll get hurt trying to get off bed it’s to high for him now and he’s up and down constantly . Went Monday for a routine vet appt which I was immediately sent to hospitals ..long story but there is no return accept a miracle from our Lord ..can’t say much more as I can’t even friggin see the keyboard now ..been crying for a week ..went on here yesterday for a few minutes to try and change my world and saw your Tennessee post .. I’m hurting real bad right now, actually didn’t think I could feel this kind of pain and I’ve lost all family members accept children thank God , even the love of mylife their dad and I’ll tell ya maybe it’s like the dam breaking but I’ve never felt this amount of pain, I think I never really had time to grieve in the past was so busy raising young kids didn’t have time to lose it , well I guess the time has come because I’ve lost it and I pray for miracle, I’m cooking the best of rib eye , chicken everything, he was keeping it down but no longer is , I’ve bought every miracle cure the past few days , just desperate ! Anyway read this about the loss of your precious one , I’m so sorry , I feel you big time
