Laurie,
I will be thinking of you & Lucas all day today!!
I know what you're about to face all too well. This is bound to be the hardest day of your life, but please be comforted knowing it will be the easiest one for Lucas! (He needs this SOO bad right now........)
Please know that I think you are doing right by him, and you should be grateful that he's hung in there for so long. He's had a pretty good stretch considering the awful circumstances that come with this disease, and he's spent the whole time being loved & cared for by you!! He's a lucky guy to have such a great owner!! I wish you all the stength & courage you'll need today. I hope all goes well............
We're all here for you......
MK
