The last Moggy report...

Feb 24, 2007 13:23

...we lost the fight, as we knew we would.  Both my vets had told me her liver was failing and there was no real bringing it back, just making her as comfortable as possible.  Neither of them thought it would be long, last week.

The last few days there's been virtually no quality of life for the poor old girl; her eyes looked rather sunken, and so did her sides; I think she was getting dehydrated again, after last week's IVs.  She wouldn't--or couldn't--eat, and it was a fight to give her her medication.  Used to be that was a piece of cake...it's like she decided she just didn't want it any more.

So, I let her go, this morning...and cried, as always.  The past week or so have been pretty grim, on a variety of fronts; guess it was just as well to get this over with, too.




She really was a sweet old girl, even if I only got to know her for a brief time.
