and it will be over.
Big Dawg has lost his appetite. His right leg has swollen up, and he is no longer interested in moving off the basement floor.
HB and I have decided to take tomorrow off work. We will go buy him a great big t-bone steak, apples, grapes, cookies ... all the things he hasn't been able to have since this lousy cancer was diagnosed.
We will feed him well. We will cuddle him and love him up.
And then we will take that last drive to the vet's clinic.
My heart is breaking at the thought of it.
About Me
- Sandy
- I am married to my best friend. We once again have two, huge, drooling, loving dawgs. I have a job that I love most of the time. I'm blessed with awesome friends and family. I thought that what was missing was coming to terms with the fact that I am not going to be a biological mother. I realize now that I'm at terms with it, and am concentrating on being a kick ass evil stepmother, awesome wife, incredible friend and having an all-round meaningful life every single day.

Oh Sandy, I'm so sorry.
I hope he regains some of his appetite for tomorrow but if not, even just with all the loving, Big Dawg is going to be in heaven even before the last drive.

I'm sorry luv, my heart breaks for you and HB. Good luck tomorrow
Oh Sandy I am sorry - I know how much you love him.
My heart is breaking, too.
I'm so sorry. I put my sick cat down last week so I know just how you feel, driving to the vet's office and coming home alone. Your logical mind tells you you're doing the kindest thing you can, but your heart feels like a traitor. Know that you're letting Big Dawg keep his dignity to the end this way. If you need to talk, email me any time.
I'm so sorry, Sandy. I know how hard this is. My heart goes out to you and HB.
OMG Sandy, my heart is in a million pieces for you. Not that it is hard right now to make me cry, but I am sitting at work totally bawling into my computer screen.
I love how you are spending your last day. Please know that my thoughts are with you. I am just so sorry.
I'm struggling to find the right words and there just aren't any. I'm sorry.
Just checking in to let you know I'm thinking of you.
I've been thinking of you all day and hoping things got better.
Your family will be in my thoughts. Pets are just like family and sometimes a lot kinder and loyal also.
Take care.
Oh, how I wish this all wasn't happening. I am thinking of you all.
