Cozy Is Dying, I must have my dog put to sleep Options

[Doximom]

I am very touched by the stories and sensitive responses on the site. My miniature doxie, Cozy, lies in her bed beside me now. The only thing that remains a constant with her now is here desire to stay close by me. Her poor tummy is swollen due to complications of congestive heart failure. Last night's trip to the vet was hopeful in that the vet increased the diuretics to the most advisable and I thought she could rally. She refuses almost all food now and I only managed to get her pills down with some deli meat. Over the last few days she would eat something for awhile and then refuse it. I cannot let her go on like this but my heart is breaking over what I must do. I have been a widow for ten years and my two little dogs have seen me through some bad times. They are my only housemates and I love them so dearly. Please say a prayer that I can have the strength to do what I have to do. Thank you for hearing me out, Cozy's mom.

Doximom, I'm very sorry to hear of the loss of your beloved Cozy. Such a loss is a terrible blow for those of us who really love our furry friends and is most difficult to accept. For sure Cozy was not "just a dog" to you, as some would say, nor can she be replaced by any other dog. Hold her close in your heart and never forget her, as she would do for you. Perhaps some day we can be reunited with all of our loved ones, including our faithful pets. My best to you.

Thanks, Jake's Grandpa.
I just made an entry in my journal about wishing that there was some shelter from this pain. With the exception of one, friends and family that know what happened are leaving me alone to get through this.. I know that they are doing what they think is best. But I so wish that I could just sit with someone and have a hand to hold. Your words have helped me.
Thanks again,
