Yesterday morning Jet was very weak and wasn't moving around much at all. We took him to his appointment and the vet wanted to keep him overnight on an IV to try to hydrate him but I knew it wasn't going to work and at 4:15 they called saying if we wanted to see him we needed to come soon. We got there within 15 minutes and he was already gone. We spent some time with him and said our goodbyes.
Jet was a funny, crazy soul that brought a ton of love and laughter into our home and lives and he will greatly be missed.
I'm so sorry Lori. He was a beautiful boy and brought you so much joy.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sam!
DeleteSo sorry for your loss. It will take time, to have the hurt, go away. But it will ease....
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful long life he had! And happy life with, his people. Remember this.
Gentle hugs
⛄ Half way between 🌺
We are trying to focus on the good memories. I read your post on Half way between and loved it. Thank you my friend!
DeleteI am so sorry. They become a family member and it is so sad when they pass. I know he will live on always in your hearts and memories.

Thank you Betty. Yes he will.
DeleteOh, Lori I am so sorry. Losing a beloved pet is so hard. But you did everything you could my friend. I can honestly say that losing a pet is in some ways more painful than losing a child. I know because I have done both. Franka's death is ever with me, but losing my dog stung in a different way. Again, I am so so sorry.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kim. It's hard because I'm second guessing if we did the right thing putting him through the surgery. But if we hadn't, we'd wonder too so it's a no-win situation.
DeleteI didn't know you lost a child. That had to be devastating.
I am so sorry Lori, my heart is breaking for you. Rest in peace sweet Jet.
ReplyDeleteThank you Martha. We're focusing on the good memories with him.
DeleteOh Lori! I cannot believe this! Precious Jet! I know the devastation you feel and I sympathize with you more than you can imagine. I will pray for you and your beloved that the grieving time is not too long or too hard. xoxo
ReplyDeleteThank you Jenny! Prayers are always helpful. Losing a pet is so hard.
DeleteOnce again, I'm so sorry for your loss. Even though he lived a long time it's still going to hurt losing him. RIP Jet.
ReplyDeleteThank you my friend!
DeleteOh my friend, I am so very sorry! Sending prayers and love. He was beautiful. And I know he had a happy life.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! We are missing him.
