Today I had to say goodbye to my
beloved J.J.
Although she was eating, yesterday she ate really well over a whole tin of a/d and her favorite some raw mince. But at her check up at the vets although she had gained weight it wasn't showing on her body. Jo said the weight was due to fluid gathering round her tummy, also her mouth wasn't looking nice and pink.
Jo did say that I didn't have to decide now but could go away for a day but that J wouldn't probably last much longer. Though I dearly wanted J home I could never had brought her home knowing that I was going to let her go the next day.
She still looked so bright in her little face and loved her tickles, though I knew her body was failing, her hind legs were beginning to go. When she went for a wee before I put her in her basket she had to sit rather then stand.
I miss her so much already and my heart brakes to have to tell you all. She had battle so hard against so much such a brave little girl.
Before Jo pts J.J she started gasping, so I know I did the right thing today but it's so hard to be without her.
We are having J cremated and are having her ashes in a little beech casket with her name on. This way I can keep her close to me.
God bless you my darling, I'm sure Tootsie and Snowy are waiting for to take you over the bridge to begin ventures new.
Love you forever.
your mummy, Steve and your pals,
Lucky, Sophie, Molly and Katie.

The Greatest Gift
I always knew this time would come,
From the very instant our eyes first met.
How I loved you then! How I love you now!
I made a promise then, and I will keep that promise now...
You will not suffer from a pain that will not heal;
You will not know the loss of a life remembered, now gone.
It is for me alone to make this decision,
The price for the bright joy and pure laughter
You brought me during the time we shared.
I am the only one who can decide when it is time.
When my hope dies, and my fear rides high,
Just when I need you most, I must let you go.
It is for you alone to tell me when you are ready
For without your guidance, I will not know
When to lay my grief, my guilt, my anger
My sorrow and my selfish heart aside
And give you this last gift, this greatest gift.
Your eyes will speak to mine, and I will know.
The pain of this moment is excruciating.
Tears stream down my face in a river of sorrow.
And my heart drowns in a pool of grief.
For you have spoken and I have listened,
And unlike other decisions I have made
This one brings no relief...no comfort...no peace.
For if there´s one thing you´ve taught me,
If there´s only one thing I´ve learned...
Unconditional love has a condition after all,
I must be willing to let you go, when you speak to me
I must be willing to help you go, if you cannot go alone.
And I must accept my pain so you can be free of yours.
Go easily now, go quickly now,
Do not linger here, it is time for you to leave.
Go find your strength, go find your youth.
Go find the ones who've gone before you.
You are free to leave me now, free to let your spirit soar
Rest easy now, your pain will soon be gone.
I pray I will find comfort in my memories...
In the dark and lonely days ahead.
I cannot say I will not miss you, I cannot say I will not cry.
For only my tears can heal my broken heart.
But, I promise you this; as long as I live,
You will live, alive in my mind, forever in my heart.
So I give you this last gift, all I have left to give,
And this will be my greatest gift...sending you away.
It is the measure of my unconditional love...
For only the greatest love can say,
"Good-bye, go find the bridge, we'll meet again,
Loving you has been the greatest gift of all."
Forever and Always... Until Rainbow bridge....
