Need some prayers (1 Viewer)

My baby girl was diagnosed with lymphoma last night. I have had since she was 2 yrs old (1997). she is now 13.5 and they tell me I have days to weeks left with her. Last night was very hard to sleep. This is the first pet i have owned. Since my wife and I can't have children, this is going to be hard. She has been an excellent dog since we got married, Jet actually was my dog then decided she was a mama's girl once we moved in together. So after 11 years together it will be time to say goodbye, and that is what hurts he most.

Dan,
I am so sorry. We went through this with our Irish Setter about 2 months ago. She was 13 as well.

So sorry to hear about your pup. She looks like such a nice dog. It's always tough with a pet because they have so much love to give and and they ask for so very little. My best to you and you wife, I will pray for you guys.

thanks to all. yesterday was a great day for her, she is responding to steroids very well. She was eating and drinking normally. We sent our son on a trip to see is father in Buffalo, so we made the drive from Appleton, WI to Milwaukee to the Amtrak. She came with and loved it. We even took a walk around down town. People coming up to her to say hi. Young children just love her and she them. At one point a young women came up with full of sassy 4 year old black lab, lucky. Lucky made me remember when I got jet. How full of spunk they can be.

I really appreciate the thoughts and prayers, I know i am new to this board, but this forum has a good sense of companionship.

I just saw this thread Dan, and please know that you guys are in my prayers.

I had to say goodbye to my own fur baby in March. It is surely the part of pet ownership that stinks, but for myself, I will tell you that I am not willing to give up the many years of love, acceptance, laughs, companionship and friendship in order to avoid the pain that comes when they have to leave. The only reason I have not adopted another yet is that I had to have surgery, which I had put off for too long. It's the first time in my life I haven't had a dog, and I'm doing all I can to get to the place when I can adopt another 'kid'.

Hang in there. You've got our support and prayers.
