Guest kar Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Had to help doug cross the bridge tonight. Cancerous bone sheath tumor - very rare - no surgery avaiable - prognosis 2 months in increasing pain. I could not watch him suffer in pain any longer. Pain meds were not managing and he was always looking to me to stop the hurt. My heart is broken he was such a love and I miss him terribly.

brandimom Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 I am so sorry to hear this about Dougie. It is always sad to read that one of our own has crossed the bridge but even sadder when they are so young like Dougie. Our sympathies and thoughts are with you. Godspeed Dougie and may the wind always be at your back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiveRoooooers Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 My heart goes out to you, Kar. No one loved Doug more than you did, and you did everything possible for your sweet boy, don't ever forget that. Someone once told me that missing someone is a way of keeping them with us, even when they are not. I hope you can find some comfort in that. Take care of yourself.

queenwinniesmom Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 This is a tough one---a rare type of cancer, and he was just going to be 6. Damn, it just doesn't seem fair. I know these past weeks have been so hard for you, first not knowing what was wrong, and then seeing him in pain that you couldn't take away. Your decision must have been heart wrenching, but made because you love him so much. Run free without pain, sweet boy. I'm so sorry you lost your precious Dougie, much too soon.
