A very sad day for our family

As everyone knows I brought Roxy home to be fostered as of March 10 this year. ! week after, I noticed multiple lumps on her. Rushed her to my vet and a biopsy was requested.
April 17th the biopsy was done. While she was away, I realized I can not part from the most perfect dog.
I told Cindy I wanted to adopt Roxy and make her my own.
Well today I called the vet and the results from the biopsy was done, she has mammary carcinoma. Other words she has Cancer.
I have been through this all day in my head, and my final decision was made when I spoke to my vet tonight.
She can not be put through the major surgery as she has multiple, as in 8 tumors. on both sides of her tummy. To do the surgery it would require her to be completely opened, and no guarantees, only that she would most likely have to be drained often.
I will not put her through this.
She will live the rest of her life as pain free as possible, and with all the love that we can spare.
I still am in shock/numb/teary/bawling/ I am a wreck.

Thank you all for all the love you guys have
