It is with much sadness that I say my Millie has gone onto the Rainbow Bridge July 30, 2009.
On July 29th I had taken her to the animal hospital with hopes that they would keep her overnight or two. We wanted them to give her some, well anything it get her stronger and maybe the medicine in her because I was having a tough time of it. Then, thinking if it was the Boxer colitis once she was one the medicine she would kick in she would start feeling better I could bring her home.
The Doctor thought that it was really cancer because she had already been on most of the medicine and it wasn't working. They said doing a biopsy was the only way to tell for sure what it was. AND, since she was on the this one med that I can not spell the test would not be accurate. She said they could keep her over night while we talked about it. I brought her home for the last time....
That night she ate some Ben and Jerry's ice cream (small amount) and some yogurt. I tried to sneak in some of the beef baby food but she didn't want it. She slept in her bed (s) that night I had been sleeping in the morning room with her in case she had to go out or had an accident since it is hardwood. The next morning I took her outside and we watched will ride his bike, he had just learned to ride a two wheeler! Lots of love, hugs and kisses.
The Vet was great really .. the took her back for an IV thingie and brought her back in the room then gave her something to sleep first. I held her and with my hand on her heart and she was gone.
She was my first real all my own pet! She was crazy, wild and a bit weird!! She helped me through so much I will be forever grateful for my Millennium Angel 11-13-99 7-30-09.
She is whole, happy and healthy again! My friend said she can eat as many crayons as she wants now :) ... prettiest poop in doggy heaven!
Thank you all for being here! You are the best!! I hope this makes some sense as I am typing through tears sad ones and happy memory ones.
(((hugs))) to all your pooches for me!
