It is with great sadness and broken heart that I share with you I send Izzy aka MDK to the Rainbow Bridge this morning at 11:22 am.

The pneumonia was making it difficult for her to breath. She was unable to walk more that a foot or two before stopping and laying down and then deep breathing with her mouth open. She had been on Zeniquin for a week with no improvement.

The other antibiotic to try were one I can't remember which was contraindicated due to her kidneys and Convenia, which I don't like and is also contraindicated for her kidneys. She was not a candidate to go under anesthesia for a lung lavage to determine what type of infection we were dealing with. He was quite sure she would not likely make it.

I could not continue to watch her struggle for every breath. She would just lay down with that forlorn look in her eyes as she concentrated on each breath, so I opted to set her free. I wanted to make that choice for her so we were surrounded by the clinic staff she knows and is comfortable with rather than end up in the emergency room with strangers. The AC told me, she would reach the new year, but that she would tell me after the new year when it was time.

As I spent those last minutes alone with her, waiting for the vet to come in...I could truly see her struggling for each breath and I knew for certain, this was the right thing to do.

She had a good life and I know in my heart of hearts I did everything I could for her and then some. More than most people (company here excluded of course) would have ever dreamed of...but my heart is broken.

I love you Princess.

I'm so, so sorry to hear of your loss :cry: . You were a wonderful bean to care for her so much, and my thoughts are with you today. :YMHUG:
 
Oh, I am so sorry for your loss of your precious kitty. I send prayers for peace to help you deal with your loss.

You should be happy that you did so much for her and did not want her to suffer in the end.
 
Janet,

I am so sorry your beautiful Izzy has went to the Rainbow Bridge. Sending prayers your way.

I'm so sorry to hear about Izzy and what a selfless final act to set her free, free from pain and now able to breathe in deep all the wonders that is Heaven. Fly free Izzy, remember to visit your momma and let her know you're alright. What a wonderful bean you are Janet :YMHUG:
 
(((((Janet)))))

I am so very sorry. Izzy is a beautiful girl an incredible name. Somehow, I like Izzy better! I often think the hardest thing we have to do is listen to what our kitties are telling us and have the courage to make what in undoubtedly, a painful decision. You listened to your girl. There is no greater act of love and caring.

Fly free Izzy and land softly. There are many of our beloved kitties waiting for you at the Bridge to keep you safe until you are reunited with the one you love best.
 
I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your precious kitty. Setting them free to be at peace without pain is the greatest gift - and the greatest sacrifice. My thoughts are with you today.
 
Janet,
BIG HUGE LOOOOOOOOONG HUG...I'm so sorry it was Izzy's time to cross but she knew enough love and care for many lifetimes.

Fly high sweet Angel...
 
((((((((((Janet)))))))))) You were so strong for sweet Izzy. Letting them go when they tell us it is time is one of the hardest things we need to do. But we love them so that we do it.

Fly Free, Sweet Izzy! you cam now run and play by the Bridge, no more struggle and pain!

So sorry to hear it was Izzy's time to leave you. The final gift we have to give is releasing our furkids from a body that has failed, but it's always a heartbreaking decision to make.

Fly Free sweet Izzy, and land softly. Send your mamabean a sign that you're happy, healthy and will be watching over her until you can be together again. wings_cat

 
(((Janet))) I am so sorry that it was Izzy's time today. You have done so much for the sweet girl, including giving her the hardest of gifts to give. :YMHUG: :YMHUG:

Fly free sweet Izzy and land softly. There are many kitties at the bridge to welcome you.

I am so sorry. I hope you find peace and comfort in knowing what a wonderful, full life you shared and that you gave her the final gift any bean can give to their loved one - making that awful decision and helping her pass.

Fly free sweet Izzy, may you soar high and wide and land softly. You are much loved and will be sorely missed.

I am so sorry it was Izzy's time to cross, Janet. Everyone in LL could (and still can) feel the depth of your love for her. Our hearts and prayers are with you, now and always...
 
((((Janet))))) my heart breaks for your heartache at having to let your beautiful princess go. It was always clear how very devoted you've been to her and her care. I know it is hard to find any comfort when you just miss her; but you did give her the greatest gift of love.

fly free, sweet Izzy. So loved and so missed.
 
Janet, I am so very sorry to read about Izzy. I know you made the right choice. Izzy does too, and she thanks you for it. It is never easy.... I hope the memories will be of comfort for you. She will never be far away, always tucked away a the corner of your heart. Fly free little one, you will be greatly missed.

Fly Free Izzy!!!!!!

Janet, I don't know you, but I do know how you are feeling right now. I'm so very sorry for the loss of your sweet princess. My deepest condolences.

Fly free sweet Izzy, you will greatly missed.
 
Oh Janet I am so sorry for your loss. The hardest part of loving our little furbabies is knowing the day will inevitably come when God calls them home. All we can do is love them as much as we can when they are here with us. You surely did just that. And your final act of love was letting her go. Take comfort in that and know she is now on the other side waiting for the day when you can be together again. God Bless.
 
I'm so sorry for your loss - it's so difficult to see them struggle for breath and not be able to help them -you certainly gave her the wonderful gift of relief when you let her go. She left knowing love - but they leave such a hole in our lives and hearts.

Sending many comforting prayers - it's a sad time.

Emmy & Dude (GA) & Mittsi too
 
I'm so sorry to hear about this sad news. Please accept my condolences for your loss, and know that you and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. {{{{{HUGS}}}}}

{{{Janet}}}:

Please accept my deepest sympathy at the loss of your beautiful little girl. No matter how long they live, it's never long enough, but Izzy had a remarkably long life, considering her issues, and I know it was filled with love. You are a wonderful mama bean, making that very tough decision with only her comfort in mind. I hurt for you, but know that she will never be far away, just waiting at the other side of the bridge.

o:-) :YMHUG: o:-) :YMHUG: o:-) :YMHUG:
 
You'll never regret all you did for Izzy.

Even a such a full life so well lived doesn't make it easier.
