Hello all:
It is with great sorrow that I had to make the ultimate sacrifice
and allow my sweet, precious little Ziggy Mo go over the bridge at
noon today. He had not eaten in two days and his breathing became
shallow, almost non-existent and he was barely able to get his head
off of the bed. My husband and I rushed him to the University of
Pennsylvania Vet Hospital (the best in our area) early this morning
and had to make the heart wrenching decision to let him go after he
was in considerable pain and his PCV's were down right below 5,
even after the vet took significant measures to try and bring them
back up. Basically he was fading fast even in their exam room. I
wanted to thank all of you for all of your kind words and support
and advice in helping me with Ziggy. I am sitting here in
disbelief that my precious little boy of only 13 months was taken
so quickly by the evil and vicious disease. I am just hoping that
knowing he is in a place where there is no longer any pain or
suffering that I can ease my sorrow a bit. I never thought it
would happen so quickly and that I would have had more time with
him. My heart is aching with saddness and pain right now but I did
want to let all of you and thank you for your kindness. I do not
know how all of you do this, some more than once but I say prayers
every night for you and your furkids and all of the little angels,
God Bless You All....
Niki
