When I was at the vets and trying to get my brain to think clearly, I was desperately trying to put aside the fact that we'd only lost Wallace 2 days earlier. Even thinking of having to do it again 2 days on was too horrific to contemplate but it was important that I didn't let the horror of it cloud my rationale. I didn't want to 'do it' because...well, who the hell does but then I didn't want to 'not do it' because it was too horrific to bear. If that makes sense. So, for a few moments I had to delete Wallace from my mind and just concentrate on what needed to be dealt with today. There was a chance for Radar to see a cardiology specialist on Monday but nobody at the vets had ever heard through a stethescope, what they heard today in Radars chest. Nobody knew if he would survive to see a cardiologist and nobody knew what the cardiologist would say the problem was. But we all agreed that the chances of a 'fix', if Radar did survive to see the specialist, were remote. Marc and I didnt' want Radars last days to be spent at the vets and he wasn't stable enough to come home to wait for his appointment so in a way, the decision was...a less hard one.

 

We all (parents, nurse and vet) went through a lot of tissues but at least Radar was spared any further discomfort/distress and he fell asleep very very easily and went on his way to meet up with Wallace and all the others.

 

What a load of utter bo**ox though.

Oh Bev, I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the name. We are so sorry that you have now had to let Radar walk to the Bridge to be with his brother Wallace - our hearts are heavy for you, knowing all that you are going through this week. Sending many hugs to our friends across the way who have always been there for us. Run free sweet Radar - make sure you and Wallace send a sign home that you are both ok.

I thought I must have read this wrong. Radar and Wallace wanted to be together again. I am so sorry for your losses.

Bev, I am so sorry you and Marc are having to go through this so soon after losing Wallace. I'm sure Wallace was waiting just across the bridge to see and welcome his buddy, Radar, into the most beautiful place they could be. Hugs and healing thoughts are going out to you and your family. Until you meet again.....
