I had to write this to you because I too am going through the hardest time right now. My baby of 14 years got really sick the weekend of Feb. 5th.
When I took her to the vet on Monday a.m., he took blood and gave her fluids because she hadn't eaten in 2 days. When I got the results back on Wed., the vet told me she was in kidney failure. Her BUN was 210, normal was 30. We tried for the next 10 days to give fluids in the hope that this would work and get her kidneys functioning again. The BUN number did not change enough to indicate that the fluids were helping. I too had to make that final decision to have her put down. We buried her the next day on our land. It has been a week now and I look for her everyday to come and meet me or be at the foot of the bed where she slept. I could not stay in the room when the vet gave her the injection. I feel that I betrayed her but people told me that would not be how I wanted the last time to see her be. I know I did what was right for her because she was sick and had stopped eating the last 4 days and would throw up after drinking water but I miss her so bad. I think I do o.k. for a while then the tears start flowing all over again. I too wait for the day when we cross the Rainbow Bridge together. God bless my little girl. I miss you Lacy J Nov. 1990 - Feb. 2005 Julie
