Little Dotty D
Dot was six and lived a happy, healthy life. She was generally healthy, but last week that all changed. The vet said her lungs were filled with fluid. Long story short Dot had cancer. She gave no warnings except for the past week. The vet phoned yesterday and said Dot had a 50/50 shot of lasting the night. If she did last she wasn't strong enough for chemo. I went to the vet. Held Dotty in my arms, cried, said my peace. She purred and seemed to know I was there, but before the vet could put the needle in her leg she died peacefully in my arms.
She had no symptoms and by the time she did there was nothing anyone could do. I have a few acres and put her next to a stream and a small waterfall. She will be missed and my heart is aching. I hope she's at rainbow bridge waiting for me. I hope I gave her the best life she could have. Even though it was short I have many memories.
