Guest IrskasMom Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 My Sweet , Beautiful " Bubby " , My Morty left me today with a completely shattered Heart . He safely crossed over the Rainbow Bridge . Morty became my " Bubby " 10 Years ago . He would never leaf my Side and the Bond between him and Me was absolutely solid . We went to the Park every Day twice , he knew every Dog that came to the Park . His Eyes were always glued to the Entrance to see , who is coming to see him . In the last 8 Month his Eye gave him a Fit. No matter what we tried , Laser Surgery , endless Medicine it just would not give him relief and less Pain . Today after we had scheduled Eye Removal , I felt more reliefed then ever , taken some of this Pain away. This Morning I looked at him and saw , his Front Paws severely swollen . So I made another Appt. with my Reg. Vet . He saw more then just the Eye Removal to be his Pain . Morty was always a poor Eater and no matter what I cooked , or fixed for him , he just would not eat . The best Indication came today , that he even refused 2 Cheeseburgers. After Xrays , the Suspect of his not Eating was discovered. A massive Mass ( Tumor ) in his Tummy was the Culprit. My Love for him and seeing him in so much Pain for Month and Month , I had to give him his well deserved Wings . I loved my Bubby so very much , he left a huge , huge Hole in my Heart .

Guest PiagetsMom Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Erika, it has always been clear through your posts just how much you loved Morty, and I know without a doubt that your Bubby loved you in return. You did everything you could to help Morty with his glaucoma and his eating issues, and your decision to give him his wings and release him from his suffering was done with the ultimate gift of love. My heart goes out to you in your loss of your special boy and you will be in my thoughts. I'm so very sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
