I can't believe I'm writing this My darling Mimi passed yesterday. Less than a month 'til she'd have turned 9.
On Sept. 18th, she was lethargic, no appetite, & a new vet suspected fluid in her lungs, & determined she had 3hrs to live. She was aggressive & angry w/ me when I said I won't have her put down, I knew it wasn't her time. I managed to capture her full of life (at times...) I probably needed her more than she needed me, & how I adore that in spite of 3 hrs, she gave me 3 months, a wk, & 3 days.
But I must say, my heart is so shattered. She meant the world to me, we survived so much together. I knew I'd miss her but this is more than I could have imagined, the pain when I awoke to knowing she won't be waiting for me, a huge part of my life is gone. The other thing is, the day the vet gave that horrible prognosis, on the way home "Wildest Dreams" came on the radio & that line, "Say you'll remember me" so got to me. Yesterday, when I left her to be cremated (I cannot believe I'm saying this ) it came on again.
How dearly I miss the way she'd put her paw in my hand & press down, or lean into me, lay in front of me in attempts to block me from moving...I'll miss you forever.
