G
is gone...
We had to go to the vet late last night - he was having trouble but was fine by the time we got there
He made it through the night but continued to decline in health
We had a VERY hard decision to make this morning
And though we know it was the right thing to do for him, it doesn't make it hurt any less
Y'all will have to excuse me if I don't post for awhile
But I at least wanted to give an update and thank everyone so very much for their kind thoughts and for their hopes that G would pull through
Unfortunately, it was his time

I'm very sorry. No matter how grave or painful the condition, it is always sorry to see them go.
As with everything. Remember the good things and know that you made the right decision.

I'm SO sorry about G.
I know that there is little anyone can say to help with the grief of losing him... but this little poem always made me think... well, maybe..just maybe it's this way:
Rainbow Bridge
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....
