carronstar Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 I am so very, very sorry. This sounds so much like what happened when I lost my Morgaine 3 years ago. I was hoping that since you were able to bring her home that your Brandy was being given a miracle. You are tucked very tightly in my thoughts and prayers.

Guest shadblu Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 She is gone. Before we left she couldn't even get up anymore. Her last attempt at walking ended with her falling over. She couldn't eat or drink. She was completely immobile. She didn't know where she was and she didn't know who I was. We had to use a makeshift comforter-stretcher to carry her into the car. She had no reaction to anything. The vet (my usual vet, who saw her 2 days ago when she was fine, and knows her well) said she'd suffered a 'massive, massive stroke.' She was so utterly shocked at her state. She said it looked like irreversible, severe damage had been dealt and administering steroids or other medicine would most likely just prolong her confused state. She was just completely unaware of everyhing. Completely gone. Looking right through you like she couldn't see or hear anything. I held onto her until I heard her heart stop beating.

Guest shadblu Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 This is my first post and I'm sorry if I messed up the first two. I just felt I had to say something as I have been following your postings and so hoped for a happier ending for you. I'm so sorry and there is nothing anyone can do or say that will make this any easier. I feel your pain as almost the exact thing happened to our very first greyhound, Shadow. Shadow was also a therapy dog, so it was hard for all his friends, too. You know in your heart that she was loved and she loved you back. Hold on to that. It was her time to cross the bridge and she is happy and free from pain. There are so many wonderful others there with her that will NEVER be forgotten. She is now in their paws.

silverfish Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Oh, no... I am so, so sorry. The way you describe her, not knowing where she was or who you were? That's how my therapy dog, Renie, was on her last day too. She had a tumour in her spine and the only way to reduce the pain to a tolerable level was ultra heavy doses of painkillers and she was still in pain, only gone. Gone from me. That is when we decided to let her go. I am crying for you and your sweet Brandy. I am so sorry. I know the pain, all too well.
