lost my boy

[pazzo]

Hi its been sometime since I posted but I just felt the need to now. I know that if anyone could understand it would be all of you people here. We never had a chance. Cancer. Struck is just like that. He was never sick not one day in 7 years, until that Saturday when he started becoming a picky eater and sunday and Monday I called the vet. Tuesday we saw the vet who assured me he was fine. I demanded blood work, I knew he wasn't. Wednesday my world changed with the results of the blood work not being good, I rushed him to university of penn. only to find out he was riddled with cancer. He was bleeding into his abdomen, his chest cavity and it was ending quickly! My world was changing by the second, I was in shock and still am. I lost my Nico on October 17 and my heart went with him that day! I stayed with him to the very end I would never had let him go alone. His head was in my lap the entire time. He left with the dignity and the respect he was born with. He was a beautiful specimen of the breed and he was my heart my life. It has been slightly more than 2 weeks and I can't get passed this. I miss him soo much. His reminders are everywhere. Nico helped me grow as a person its sounds crazy but I am better because of him. I know that brighter days are coming, I know that he would be so upset for me to be like this so FOR HIM I will move forward. I hope he knew how much he was loved. He touched the hearts of soo many people, it truly was amazing. Amazing that he is not here. I hope that everyone that reads this gives thier baby a little extra after reading this because life can truly change in the blink of an eye! Thank you all for listening.:(

I'm so sorry. :(

I'm sure he knew how much he was loved by you.

It sounds like you did your very best, so I hope you don't feel any guilt. Your boy was very lucky to have you. Cancer is an aweful thing, and sadly it's common in rotties. :(

What sad news. My heart goes out to you.

Bless you for caring so much and doing the right thing by your lovely boy. He left you knowing he was loved. I am so sorry.

Thank you so much for sharing. I am so sorry to hear about Nico.
I will follow your thoughts and give my girl extra loves from now on. Please take care of YOU.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Rest in peace, Nico.

[Miabella]

I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my Rottie girl Mia under the same circumstances almost exactly a year ago. She was perfectly fine until one day she didn't feel like eating. Brought her to the vet, ultrasound found a large mass on her spleen that was bleeding into her belly and smaller masses on almost every organ. Nothing could be done, and we euthanized the next day.

Such a horrible shock, I'm so sorry for your loss. Even though it's been a year, the pain is still sharp and raw for me. The only thing that helps me is that at least they didn't have to suffer, they felt healthy and happy right up until the last couple days.

He will be with you in your heart forever - my sympathy on his passing - Lisa (Bucky's Mom)

I am so sorry about your loss. Cancer is an awful thing.

Keep reminding yourself that he is running around making new friends and he is pain free.

Keep him in your heart and know that you will see him again.

I am praying for you.

I am so so sorry:( . I lost my boy 3 years ago at the age of 7 also and with the same circumstances as you and Miabella:( . After my boys diagnosis we lost him less then 3 months after that and it broke our hearts. After losing 3 others throughout the time we've had dogs it never gets any easier. All we can do is give them the best darn life we can and allow them to die with dignity:( . I don't know what else to say my friend, you took him to the best place for help, please have comfort in knowing you did everything you could.

You don't live far from me, I'm in Pottstown Pa. and their are a few other members from this area too so if you ever need to talk feel free to PM me.

My heart goes out to you during this difficult time and I pray you soon find peace.

I'm so sorry for your loss.. a lot of us have been throught the same experience, losing our babies to cancer.

You and Nico will be in my prayers.

I'm so sorry that you lost Nico so suddenly. We lost our 9 yo chocolate lab Sienna very suddenly also to cancer- she was fine up until one morning when she seemed listless and the vet found her spleen had ruptured from hemangiosarcoma. She spent only a few days with us after her spleen was removed. Sienna is in my heart forever. In some ways, it was better to have her go so quickly and with dignity than watching her slowly go downhill. My thoughts are with you in your painful loss.

:( I am so sorry for your loss. I hope you find comfort here in the thoughts and prayers of others. Mine are certainly with you. Stay strong for Nico until you meet again at the Bridge.

[rottie2mom]

My thoughts and prayers are with you during this most difficult time. It doesn't seem fair that they aren't with us long enough on this earth.....but your Nico is in your heart FOREVER.

God speed Nico.

I'm so sorry.
