Groot passed away. His infection came back antibiotic resistant and he has internal bleeding. He was so anemic his red bloodcell count barely registered. His only treatment path was blood transfusions and really strong IV antibiotics. Even then it was not a good chance.
He was very happy in his last moments, he had all his favorite people come say goodbye. He got a burger, fries, ice cream, and a million other treats. Of course he didn’t know what was coming. It was really hard because he was acting like he felt ok. He was giving everyone kisses, he was sitting up, alert and happy. But we knew if he walked 30 yards he would require laying down and heavy breathing because his organs weren’t getting enough oxygen. Had he come home he would have lasted maybe another day or 2.
He was a rockstar. People would shoot photos from other vehicles while we were driving. He had strangers asking for pics with him on every walk. You always had to plan around 2 or 3 hours for walks in public because you would be stopped every 20 or 30 yards. He caused car accidents on more than 1 occasion from people looking. Almost everyone in town knew him and would yell to him as they drove by. He was massive, gorgeous, extremely expensive and worth every penny.
Wish he could have lived forever. I am devastated.
