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.

Thank you so much. The days - and even parts of days- are swinging from the beginnings of acceptance to deep grief to terrible loneliness and back again. I wish I could escape from this but know from other deaths that you cannot. Nephew Brian sent flowers and it was so touching- he is not a pet owner himself and so it was really his recognition what Cozy's death means to me.
I am just trying to hang in there,
