Good Bye Rose

Today was a very sad and emotional day.
Our much loved Rose is no longer with us.
After 16 yrs, today was the day she had to leave us.




















If you remember, last month I had to bring her to the vet as she was very sick.
The vet thought she had diabetes...which she did not have.

Then last week I had her at the vet as her lung had to be drained.
She hasn't eaten since then. We have had to force feed her by watering down her food and feeding her with a syringe.
She had lost so much weight in such a short time.
She sat with the family most of the week. Plus she would do things that gave us hope that she would get better. Sadly she didn't.
So with a heavy heart and lots of tears, Rose is at peace now.





















I put together a video with photos of our beautiful Rose.
It was hard for me to watch in between the tears, but I wanted to make this for my girls.
I hope we gave you a happy 16 years Rose.
I hope you all had a creative Wednesday :)

Now go and give your much loved pets a hug.

Tracy

    I'm so sorry for the loss of your furbaby, Rose. I know all too well the emptiness and sorrow you are feeling. Remember all the good times you had with her and that she will be waiting for you at the rainbow bridge.

    Oh Tracy, what a great way to remember Rose with the video. I love the pictures with her and the girls and with the fish bowl :) It will get easier, after today, but you can feel better knowing that she's no longer in pain. I'm thinking of you and your family my friend.

    I am crying and I haven't been able to bring myself to watch the video. I am so sorry for your family's loss. Beloved pets truly are a part of the family and it is devastating to lose them. I hope you find comfort in knowing that she is at peace and that you have her a wonderful life for 16 years!

    So very sorry for your loss. I hope you find some comfort in knowing you gave her such a loving caring home and she gave you and your family all that love right back in return. I don't know if you've ever heard of the poem called "Rainbow Bridge" but it is a wonderful poem about our pets passing that comforts many. Hope you can look it up on the internet and find some comfort in it.
