Depressing post sorry...

Need some mojo guys bad. We were told by the vet today that basically our dogs 7 year battle with cancer is finally ending and that cancer is gonna win this one.

They don't think she will make it more than a couple more weeks. I will be on tour probably which sucks horribly so I need some uplifting thoughts and if you believe in god then send prayers my way.

Thanks,
-Kyle

Dude, I'm so sorry - your little girl in her sweater, that's terrible that her cancer finally caught up with her, but it's wonderful that you two had as much time as you did. Hopefully her condition will improve! (slim though it may be, there's always hope)

Really sorry to hear it man, I'm not a religious guy, but you and your dog have my best wishes.
And either way, if your dog's been battling cancer for 7 years, it'll be in a better place when it finally passes away than it has been in a long time.
My grandad died of cancer of the oesophagus (can't spell it, sorry) and he only had 4 months after the diagnosis, and while he was on his deathbed he just wasn't there any more, and a load of us stayed at my Nan and Grandad's house for about a week, sleeping in shifts to make sure there was always someone there with him, so that he'd die with his family there. I went over on the tuesday, and he was expected to die by the next morning, he lasted until saturday night, like 10-11pm and to be honest man, as bad as it sounds, I just wanted it to be over for him. I wanted every minute I could get with him, sure, but he wasn't my Grandad any more in that state, and when he died, he looked totally at peace, and that was really comforting somehow.
This probably isn't helping much, sorry man, but I felt like I should add all that.

my condolences dude.

Shucks man, very sorry to hear that.

If it helps, I was living about 75 miles from home last year when I found out my dog was dying. Unfortunately, due to school, I wouldn't be able to go home for about 7 days. It was kind of a stressful 7 days, knowing he could pass at any time, and I wouldn't get to be there to say goodbye to him. On the 7th day, on my way home, I called the house, and my parents let me talk to him. They said he kind of perked up and moved his head around a little. I was very happy to come home and see him conscious and alert, though very weak and unable to walk. He died later in the night while I was asleep, but I'll always feel like he held on as long as he could, just so we could be together that one last time.

Best wishes mate. Had my cat pass away in front of me about a month ago, hit me a bit, but then I thought of all the great times we had together, was pretty cool, plus the fact Im fighting the dreaded Jacky Dancer myself, its chin up, laughs a plenty and good thoughts always. Helps immensely.
