Fliegen: September 1990 - April 28, 2009
Little Fliegen passed away at 10:22am on Tuesday, April 28 while I cradled her. Although her medication had stopped her seizures, it became apparent that the brain tumour was rapidly affecting her in multiple ways and I could no longer let her suffer. She spent her last night sleeping next to me so I thankfully had a chance to say a proper goodbye. At 19 years, her little body had lived all it could - although her ears stayed perky right up until the end.
I wanted to take the time to thank all of you for your kind thoughts.

Julie,
Relieving the suffering of a beloved animal is an attribute shared only by compassionate humans. Be proud.

Dear Julie,
We are all sad to hear that there's an empty spot in your heart where your good friend used to be.
I agree with Not So Smart, that these episodes are the saddest of ones lifetime. It's funny, after losing my pal, it has taken 20 years for me to warm up to the idea of getting a new friend. Twenty years. No hurry.
You know, it's too bad that people don't have the loving spirits of our four legged friends.
...sorry.

Dear Julie, So sorry for your loss. We went through the same thing when we had to put our otherwise healthy cockapoo to sleep because of a tumour on one of her eyes. I lost both my parents to cancer, but in many ways the loss of our pet was more painfull. Due mainly to the way it has to happen. But you know what I mean.
Best wishes,
Not so smart
