I'm so sorry. I've been there three times. It's such a painful disease. You are giving her a huge gift...the end of pain.

Once again, thank you everyone for your help, advice and encouragement.

 

Friday we said goodbye to our Tilly - she spent the morning in her favorite spot in the front door, we opened the door for her (we have a full glass storm door) and padded everything with blankets to keep out the cold, and she watched the happenings in her neighborhood for the last time. She still had her appetite, so she got a full bowl of rotisserie chicken and she loved it! When the vet arrived, she gently greeted her. She was our lovely, sweet girl right up until the end. The hospice service arranged for her to taken to the crematorium, and we picked a small bouquet of early-blooming daffodils and placed them in her coffin with her. One last kiss on her forehead and I said goodbye.

 

She was brought home to us on Saturday.

 

My heart is aching and I miss that girly so much. I know that she was in pain, and she wasn't going to get better...only worse - so I am happy we could end her suffering, but it remains one of the hardest things we have to go through. DH told me that the edema in her leg was "hard" around her knee (where they found the mass) - and when the vet administered the sedation in that leg, she cried a bit, so she likely had more feeling in that leg than we even knew. I can only pray that a cure, or preventative, is found for this awful disease in my lifetime.

 

Thought you all might like to see a photo of our sweet girl:
