My Beloved Noah Options

[moon_beam]

At 1:52 a.m. I received a call from Noah's overnight physician from the ER hospital. A "quick" ultrasound was done on Noah at some point after I left visiting him, and fluid was found in his abdomen. A sample of the fluid was taken which showed definite bacteria - - which means something in my precious Noah's abdomen was perforated or leaking. This is always considered a surgical emergency, which I approved.

At 2:20 a.m. the surgeon called me to let me know that there was nothing she could do for my precious Noah. His stomach had ruptured from multiple tumors and there was nothing but dead tissue in place of his stomach. The only thing that could be done for him was to mercifully transition him from this earthly realm. She agreed that she could keep Noah comfortable under anesthesia until I arrived to be with him when the drugs were administered. I arrived at the hospital around 3:20 a.m., and around 3:30 a.m. Noah joined his beautiful sibling baby sister Abbygayle and adopted big kitty brother Eli in heaven's perfect garden.

Needless to say my heart is aching right now and the tears are flowing, but there are so many things I am thankful for - - one of them having had the honor and privilege of being his human caregiver all the 14 years of his sweet physical life. I will get a pawprint and his ashes back sometime within the next week.

I want to thank each of you for your comforting support during this time of great sorrow,

Peace and blessings,

Hi, Kathy, thank you for your comforting support. You can see a picture of my beloved Abbygayle in her topic "Abbygale's Journey" in the Death and Dying forum, page 7 of the topic titles. You may need to scroll through some of the pages until you see her. I was crying so hard when I opened her topic that I misspelled her name - - the correct spelling of her name is Abbygayle.

You can see a picture of my beloved Noah in his topic "My Precious Noah", on page 4.

You can see a picture of my beloved Eli on page 10 in my topic "Oslo" which is on page 11 of the topic titles. The picture of Eli is when he was a baby kitty cuddled next to his big doggy brother Oslo.

I am the only one in my family who feels strongly about the bond we have with our companions, so talking to family members about it is very limited. The only people I KNOW I can share what is in my heart are here on this wonderful forum - - and that's okay. I will miss this place when Marc sunsets the forum in 2019. I'm not a fan of social media, so participating in facebook, etc., is not much of an option for me. So for now I am blessed to have you, LoveMyMickey, and Tracy to share this adjustment journey with me.

I hope you and your precious Sunny will have a very peaceful evning, and will be back online tomorrow.

Peace and blessings,
