A sad updateā¦.
Sadly today was the dreaded day. We tried everything we could the last few weeks and sadly it wasnāt enough. Sophie lost even more weight and started to refuse to eat even when she was hand and spoon fed. Yesterday she couldnāt walk on her own anymore. We took her to the vet today and they said that itās most likely cancer that initially didnāt show up on the blood work, but with the extreme weight loss in such a short time that was the likely case. We could have done more blood work to see and potentially done treatments, but the vet (and us) felt that all it would do is prolong Sophieās suffering. So we had some cupcakes (the only thing sheās eaten in a bit) and a couple of pepperonis off a pizza. We cuddled her and told her she was the prettiest and goodest girl (because she is) and she crosses the rainbow bridge. The room we were in had a window that let some sun in, so she was also able to sun bathe, which was one of her most favorite things to do.
Iām no going to take down her blog so we can still look in on the memories, but I want to thank you all for the well wishes and support in this trying time. Itās not easy losing a pet, but weāre trying to keep in mind that sheās no long sick and in pain.
