greytdecals Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 It is with our very sad, hurting hearts that Brian and I have to tell you that we helped Miss Nellie to the bridge this morning This was the most difficult thing that we have ever had to do, but is was best for her. I can't stop crying. Her little body was tired and hurting, she could not walk, could not stand up on her own...she was no longer living her life the way she wanted to and she was very depressed. She went peacefully, wrapped in her Circle of Grey healing blanket. Bless you sweet Miss Nellie...you are now running pain free with 4 legs! You will be missed and loved forever and ever! You have touched so many lives in your short time here on earth and I know you will continue to! Now you can play and run and climb stairs again! Thank you, everyone, from the bottom of our hearts for all of your prayers, support and most of all, caring...you have been there with us thru this difficult time and I don't know how we could ever give back what you have given to us. We will keep fighting for you, Miss Nellie...someday, there will be a cure for Osteosarcoma and no one will ever have to go thru what we have had to and no hound will ever have to suffer again. It's so hard saying goodbye and it hurts so bad...but I know we will see you again...we love you, Miss Nellie Quote Suzie Collins Owner/Artist Skinny Hound Designs Greyhound decals, magnets and signs.

grey14me Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 We all thought if anyone could beat this nasty disease, it would be the amazing Miss Nellie. I'm sitting here in tears, as I'm sure will everyone who sees her name in the Remembrance forum. I'm just so very sorry for the loss of your very special girl. :grouphug Quote Michelle...forever missing her girls, Holly 5/22/99-9/13/10 and Bailey 8/1/93-7/11/05 Religion is the smile on a dog...Edie Brickell Wag more, bark less :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FountainLady Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 I'm so sorry - I know the pain. We picked up our Pup's ashes from the vet today. Osteo has taken too many of our beloved hounds lately. All the while we were fast losing Pup to Osteo, I was reading and following along with Miss Nellie & I kept hoping and praying that she would beat this terrible Cancer for atleast a little while longer.
