I'm numb
I feel very sick. My mother just instant-messaged me to say we have to put Lucy our English bulldog down today at 5:30 PM. She's the last of the family of four dogs I grew up around. Why must every dog have had to be put down rather than simply dying peacefully? Taking them to that vet's room and holding them while they die is traumatic. Besides my brother Andre, I'm the only one in the family that can stomach being there when it happens, and he must be unavailable. He held onto Mable and Bud when they went together a year and a half ago, and I was the one present with my father the first time with Spike four years and three months ago.
She's had stomach cancer the past few months, and its peaking today where she's vomiting up blood clots all over the floor. I know this will be best for her, but it'll be so hard to say goodbye to a dear friend and family member I've known the past 12 years. I'm going to go visit her on my lunch break to have some time with her before 5:30 PM.
