Lucy | Monday, October 06, 2003 - 10:45 pm     Dear Worm Family, I am so sad for what you are going through...I don't have dogs, but I'm crying right now because I know the pain of losing an animal. NC, thank you for sharing Budy's story. I think you did what you could for him, and that's all anyone could ask. Hugs to you all. |

Scootersmom | Tuesday, October 07, 2003 - 05:13 am     {{{{NC, Bookie and Boys}}}} I'm so sorry. |
Heyltslori | Tuesday, October 07, 2003 - 05:29 am     Nightcrawler, you made a hard and brave decision, and I'm so sorry you were faced with that. Big (((((hugs))))) to you, your family, and everyone who was lucky enough to know Buddy.  |
Julieboo | Tuesday, October 07, 2003 - 05:38 am     Nightcrawler, I know what a hard decision that is. About a year and a half ago I ended up putting my sweet cat Pocahontas to sleep. She had weird breathing problems and the vet couldn't find exactly what was wrong. He said they could do more tests and he said they might not turn up any good solution. So I felt really guilty because if I had spent more money, maybe I could have saved her. But the reality is that even with more $$ and more tests, she would have had to be put down anyways. I am sure Buddy had a great three years with you. You are such a caring family. I am sorry for your loss and the heartbreaking decision you had to make. |
Kaili | Tuesday, October 07, 2003 - 05:49 am     ((((((Nightcrawler, Bookworm, and family))))) I hope your feeling better each day as you heal. It sounds like Budy was a really sweet, loved dog and had a happy life with you. He was a lucky dog |
Theowl | Tuesday, October 07, 2003 - 09:25 am     Nightcrawler, I want to thank you for the warning before your last post. Just reading the warning, I started to cry, knowing what you were going to say. I'm going to read the rest when I think I might be able to handle it better, and I can cry for you and Buddy and the Worm family alone. I'm so sorry for you.  |
Ducky | Tuesday, October 07, 2003 - 10:25 am     Nightcrawler and Bookie I can't even begin to read what happened to your dear pet. Like Owl I'm already crying as I try and type this. Knowing what a joy animals bring to are lives I'm sure your sweet ((Buddy)) will be missed terribly. Love to you both |
Yankee_In_Ca | Tuesday, October 07, 2003 - 10:45 am     Nightcrawler -- So sorry to hear about Budy. I hope you are doing OK. My thoughts are with you and your family.... Yankee |
Lostintheglades | Tuesday, October 07, 2003 - 12:33 pm     I'm so sorry NC...that is such a hard thing to do. It is so hard to say goodbye to out pets but Buddy was lucky to have such a careing family who was able to make that hard decision. |
Grannyg | Tuesday, October 07, 2003 - 01:48 pm     NC, Bookie, and boys, I am so sorry you are having to go through this. You are in my thoughts and prayers.  |
Bookworm | Tuesday, October 07, 2003 - 07:48 pm     Thank you everyone for thinking of us. It's so different coming home and seeing one less dog. I felt even worse about the whole deal since Buddy came to us from NC's work. I felt like they entrusted us with him and now it's been less than six months and he is dead. Last night one of NC's bosses called to check on Buddy and I told her that NC was in the process of digging a grave. She made me feel a little better because she said that Buddy's life was so full. He came to NC's work as a stray and filled those folks (NC works with adults with developmental delays) with so much joy while he was with them. Then when he came home with us he got to run. She reminded me that he loved to be able to run free in the country and go exploring with his 'girlfriend' Jette. So I felt better knowing that a lot of lives were touched by Buddy and that his work here was done. He looked and sounded so pathetic this weekend when his health bottomed out. I am glad not to have to see him like that anymore. Thank you guys again. We have a lot of great friends here. Hugs to everyone. Go hug your dogs too. |
Nightcrawler | Tuesday, October 07, 2003 - 09:46 pm     I thought I was done crying over (((((Budy))))) but reading your kind words got me started all over again. and thank you for that I guess I need to cry more. I was doing ok just a few tears till I got to Owl's and Ducky's post then the flod gate opened. Bookie's post did not help much ether. thanks to you 3 I needed that. Whoami. I never looked at it that way.((((((thanks))))) Budy loved are clients as much as they loved him. if he wouldn't of found us. the pound would have put him down 3 years ago allday people at work were asking about (((Budy))) and would cry or hug me or both when I told them. it was harder to tell the client about (((Budy))) It was hard to have (((Budy))) put to sleep even hard to dig his grave not haveing him walk me to my truck and great me when I got home was the WORST I need to go to bed and cry my self to sleep thanks again NC |
Sia | Tuesday, October 07, 2003 - 10:30 pm     {{{Nightcrawler, Bookworm and family}}} I'm very sorry to hear of the loss of Buddy. That must have been heart-wrenching. I hope it helps to know that I, like several others here, believe that you made the right decision. He was really failing and there is little that a vet could have done even with a ton of money for tests and procedures, so you did the humane thing. |
Tater | Tuesday, October 07, 2003 - 11:45 pm     {{{{Bookworm, Nightcrawler, and family}}}} My heart aches along with you. |
Kaili | Wednesday, October 08, 2003 - 05:40 am     Awwww... Hope you're feeling better each day- there's nothing better than a good cry- I had so many little bursts of sometimes one minute, sometimes twenty- just let it go- you need it right now. Hugs to you and Budy...  |
Ddr1135 | Sunday, October 12, 2003 - 01:48 pm     I'm so grateful for people who feel the same way I do about stray dogs. Today I hosted a luncheon for a canoe trip in one of our parks. When the canoers got there, one of them had a dog. She had found it where they had camped out the night before and decided to adopt it. He's at the awkward, clumsy puppy stage. But he has the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen. You can just tell he'll make a great pet. He was so skinny all his ribs were showing. All the canoers were just so kind to him while watching their plates so he couldn't get to their food, LOL. I gave him a whole plate of cold cuts for lunch. She named him after the town she found him near. "Henderson" is now on his way back home to New Orleans, where after a good bath, he'll be sleeping in her bed tonight. Thank God for kind souls! |
Kstme | Sunday, October 12, 2003 - 04:05 pm     Drd, what a WONDERFUL outcome for the puppy! |
