Goodbye Lady...we will miss you..
It is with sadness that I write this post however it is part of the healing process of losing a good friend. Lady our Beagle was struck by a car last week after running out of our apartment when a neighbor came to the door. Of course there is regret and remorse that we could of done a better job or more we could of done to prevent this - however it is what it is - a tragedy. Making the decision to put her down was a lot harder then I ever would imagine. Lady was treated like our child and we tried to wrestle with saving her but the medical cost for one night was insane! She broke her hip and needed surgery or to have one of us stay at home and make sure she goes the bathroom and did not move... these were not options we could explore - the best thing we could of done was put her out of her misery quietly. We will miss her rub the belly sessions, her sad face, her begging, her loud howl, her welcoming committee and all the park, walks and times we spent together in just 2 months time... we know that your in a better place and we are the lucky ones to have gotten to know a sweet animal as yourself - to you Lady (foghorn) we are grateful for our journey together while it lasted.
