Mourning Saying goodbye today. She was misdiagnosed with hyperthyroidism. We learned on Saturday that after months of treatment for elevated T4, she has a tumour the size of a small apple in her abdomen. The vet recommended euthanasia.

We're all shocked. I can't stop crying. Doing in-home euthanasia in a few hours. I'll miss her so much. It hasn't sunk in yet that I'm losing her.

She's 14. We adopted her and her brother at age 10.

I'm her favourite person and she's with me all the time. If she doesn't know where I am, she calls out for me. If I'm not sitting so she can be on my lap, she's asking me to pick her up.

She's leaving a void-sized hole in my heart.

My void had to be put down last April for a brain tumor, and she looks like she could be your voids sister. I like to think that she will be on the other side of the rainbow bridge waiting for her. I know what you mean about the void sized hole - mine is still gaping wide open as I cry writing this. You gave her the best life, and all she knew was love. Sending you hugs and support.
