My baby girl crossed the rainbow Bridge about an hour ago. I believe she found peace at last and it truly was the only choice I made the last two months that was 100% correct. She was so tired and I set her free.
Thank you very much once again all of you and I hope all the best for your sweet pups from the bottom of my heart.
Take care.
Ohhhhh my gosh. I am truly sorry, you have my condolences. What a heartbreaking loss, I cannot imagine.
As your heart and head battle each other over the decisions you made the last two months, always try to remember there are no wrong choices here. You did the best you could, and you made those choices with love in your heart for Zanzi. That's all she ever wanted from you, and when she went to the Bridge, she went knowing that she was a treasured part of your life. What a gift you gave her throughout her life.
Cancer is awful, and it takes our loved ones far too soon. But one thing it cannot do is steal the beautiful life you gave her before cancer, it cannot define her personality or her legacy, Zanzi was so much more than that. In time, your memories of the good times will fill your heart, but for now, I know it hurts so much.
Please know we are here for you. If you want to talk, just let us know.

I am so very sorry for your loss. I cannot tell you in words how badly I feel. Your girl is free of pain now and surrounded by all of our Angels. You did everything in your power to save her. My heart just aches for you right now. I know this is an awful time for you, I am sending you a big hug.

Yes, we are all grieving with you today. I just wish that could help, but it won't . I wish we could find words that would help, but we can't .
There is something you said in one of your post and you MIST hold onto it:
"They are a part of us. And will always be for as long as we keep walking this life. "
And then Kerry said something tjat I hope you read over and over until you find some comfort. It was beautifully said and so true, so very true!!

And remember also, Zanzi has no regrets! Zanzi would jave expected nothing less of you to give her every chance possible!!! To not jave done so would have been the only "regret" you would possibly jave. (although nothing avput this crazy journey should ever cause a regret in any form at all).
And then you gave her the gift of release when she was ready . Again, she would jave expected nothing less.
PLEASE stay connected and, when you can, share more of this sweet Soul's earth life. She melted our hearts from Day One, and your devotion to her was a beautiful light of love that surrounded her every moment of her life 💖
With love

Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
I'm so sorry.
Remember this: Cancer forced you into making all these decisions. Cancer is a sneaky, nasty bastard. Everything that has happened over the last two months is cancer's fault.
You loved your girl and did your best for her, hold on to that. Hold on to every moment of your lives together before the last two months. The special ones never really leave us because they live on in our hearts, she will be forever by your side.
