  1. Oh Jordan, I am so very sorry :cry1. I know Mafi knew she was and is so loved and celebrating her life is a wonderful way to remember her. And so I will share that the 1st time I met Mafi was @ the International update in Hopkinton @ Greyhound Friends, she was exuberant and happy, quite social and coming from her past life in Spain...I was so amazed and impressed by her spirit for life! The next time I met Mafi was @ your home a year or so later, Mafi greeted me by jumping up on me and trying to hug me..repeatedly while the rest of your Galgo pack approached with caution. When I came over to do Reiki 6 weeks ago, Mafi still greeted me even though her body was frail, her spirit was still there, she took Reiki in little spurts in between Tim's session and even came with the rest to say goodbye when I was leaving, she was a brave sweet soul and the Queen. Sending you more hugs and Reiki healing for your heart Jordan, :grouphug:grouphug:grouphug Mafi is running with all her buddies @ the Bridge now.

  2. I wish I could take away the pain that is yours and hers :grouphug:grouphug unfortunately all I can do is pray and send you healing thoughts and peace and say how truly sorry I am that you have been dealt this sad diagnosis. I have been down this road before with my girl Sara, she was diagnosed with Hermangio Sarcoma(cancer) with an inoperable tumor in between 2 disks in her spine, she was in so much pain. I was sent home with her after she spent 2 days in ICU filled with anxiety on a Fentanyl drip to "spoil her and keep her comfortable" with 3 different pain meds. She had already lived 5 years past a grim diagnosis of incurable GME(inflammatory brain disease, Granulomatous Meningino Encephalitis) and a year on chemo drugs and a cocktail of daily meds, we were able to kick that disease far into remission. Unfortunately we could not do the same this time, I helped her cross the Bridge the day after her diagnosis, the pain meds were not enough to keep her comfortable and she would not eat even her favorite cooked foods,I brought her to her favorite park, one last ride in the Magic Bus and let her go with love, she was 2 months shy of 11 years old. I wish you and your husband strength and know you are in my thoughts and prayers, you have given her the best possible care and the final act of love is to set her free from her ailing body, her spirit will live with you forever :grouphug

  3. Diane, so sorry about Sonny, he was a very sweet boy who welcomed all your fosters, although you shared about his loss by email, seeing his pictures are a reminder of your tremendous loss, the paw over the head is adorable :grouphug:grouphug thinking of you

  4. :grouphug:grouphug Sending your lots of hugs, such a hard decision but one made with love for your girl, having just gone through this I am of the belief better a day too soon than late, not eating is a clear indication of distress and pain and Kidney disease is painful. From my personal experience, it is more peaceful to let them go in the comfort of their home surrounded by love and not wait until a crisis happens and you are faced with an Emergency Vet or worse :grouphug

  5. A beautiful tribute to a very handsome boy! I am truly sorry for your loss, your 1st Greyhound is like no other, it is a heartbreak like no other, sending you peace, hugs and my most sincere sympathy .I have always loved seeing your photos of handsome Murray and pretty Holly, hold those memories dear and thank you for submitting to Celebrating Greyhounds, loved seeing his pictures on the calendar too.

  6. Thank you everyone, it did not seem real until I shared it with GT, there is such a huge void here, the space where his double decker pillow was, his old soft crate :cry1, he was a big boy with a huge presence, I feel like I am walking in quicksand, so very heartbroken :brokenheart. To all those who have lost a precious soul, my heart and prayers are with you, there are no words to take away the pain.
