Gizmo Has Been Joined, miss u chewy! Options

Wow what a week this has been...im not sure I can handle anymore heartbreaks.
I lost gizmo a week ago and last night we lost her sister chewy. Only this time there was no pain and suffering.
I came home from work to find my little sweetheart laying on the floor at the front door..as if she were waiting for us to come home and help her. I immidiatley called the vet and we were at their office within ten minutes. Turns out the flea spray wasn't the only problem my little angels were having. They contracted a fatal cat virus ..that attacks their red blood cells and doesn't allow oxygen to get in their systems. How terrible!
so I was left with a choice..either put her to sleep so she went peacefully or pay over a thousand dollars for blood transfusion and test and god knows what else...the vet was very honest and said at the stage the kitten was in it would be like throwing money away because her survival rate was slim to none. My heart broke for a second time this week. I knew it was the right thing to do...I watched her sister die in pure agony because I didn't have the funds that week to put her down and I would not watch chewy go down the same way...no one should have to endure such a death. I put my baby out of pains way..I know I did the right thing.
My heart and soul are pretty damaged right now...I am beyond sick at the thought that this may happen a third time with Yoda ..chewy and gizmo's big brother. The first born. He is so healthy right now and I informed the vet about him she said to keep an eye on him and at the first sign of a problem bring him in. The virus is contagious and there is no treatment..the cat has to pretty much fight it on their own but the vet can provide assistants if they need it..like oxygen and an I.v.
I am praying to every god their could be out there and I beg you guys to stick Yoda in your prayers too please! I cannot afford to save him if worse gets to worst. I hope someone up there will give him a chance to thrive..to not have to suffer the same outcome as his sisters..to live a full life for all of them.

Thanks again for the shoulder everyone!

Dear Claira, i am so sorry for little chewy, and gizmo, and for you, such new little souls...at least she had some peace at the leaving...is it some type of leukaemia they have? Not that it helps your heart right now...Prayers for yoda and hugs for you Leejaye
