Oh, how sad! She was lucky though to have had you to care for her so
that she didn't have to suffer. Always remember the kindness you showed
her made what was left of her time here happy. She will be waiting for you
on the other side.
Goodnight, sweet Luci.......

Subject: Luci
I wanted to say thanks for all your input and support.
Jim and I took Luci to another vet yesterday. The vet was patient and
listened to all we had to say. She did a thorough blood work, x-rays,
and listened to her heart. The x-rays showed a cancer thru her lungs and
surrounding her heart. Luci had turned anemic and when drawing blood,
the blood did not clot. Her bilirubin count was extremely elevated
and her white cell count was very low. The cancer had spread to her
liver and probably elsewhere. We felt there was nothing that could save
her and so did the vet. Her breathing was heavy and due to the cancerous
lump, her trachea had been pushed up against her back so she could not get the
food down. The vet could have extracted some of the fluid around the
lungs and heart but we did not want to see Luci in anymore pain. The
decision to put Luci down was e! xtremely difficult. I miss her so
much.
Thank you for all your support and stay strong with all your
children.
Thank you,
Kristen and Jim
