Thank you everyone. Like everyone
else who loses a beloved pet, I cry a lot. It means so much to have
the support and understanding of you all.

Del,
I found your message about Sam. Again, I'm so sorry. Yes, it
is hard to lose them so close together. I've never lost 2 so close
together so can only imagine your pain. :(
My sweet boy passed away early this morning
while I talked to him and held his hand. His last 24+ hours was bad, I
didn't expect him to last as long as he did. His first clot was
mid-November with back end paralysis but he regained some limb
function. He threw another saddle clot Sunday night but rallied, then
Wednesday night threw another and it was downhill from there. He
was not going to survive when he continued to throw these clots
frequently while on the meds and his heart was inconsistent.
Ten minutes before he died Lightning Bug, his sister, lay in front of his
crate for five minutes his head was right next to hers, like they were
sharing unspoken thoughts before he moved on. He and Effie used to
look at each other in admiration through the screen door, now they are
finally playing together.
It's hard losing two in a week.
Del
