    Oh, Addy.

    I just came to your thread to catch up on you and Zoe and my heart is breaking for you. Everyone says you will know when it is time and they are right. When their quality of life has declined so much and there is no hope for improvement, when they are suffering, you will know. But, it is also the hardest decision you will probably ever make. You have always acted in Zoe's best interest and this will be no different. Remember your recent words to me. Please know that I am right there with you in spirit.
    Best,

    Mary Beth and Alivia

    We just came back from seeing Zoe. I spoke with her IMS for an hour on the phone. She said it possible she may have had a seizure not a stroke but we did not see any urine or stool. She said if it was a seizure there was a chance she could recover quickly. If it was a stroke whow knows? We taked about Zoe's decline since Thanksgiving, we talked about everything we have been through. I told her I thought Zoe dererved 24 hours of support in the ER that it was too soon to make this call, I wanted her to have a little more time.

    Then we went to see her, I have never seen her this bad ever. I lay on the floor with her and looked into her eyes and I told her it was okay to leave me. Her eyes told me to let her go but then she started breathing quietly and closed her eyes and went to sleep and seemed more peaceful. We told them we thought we would let her go now and be at peace. They gave us some time with her, I picked her up and held her to my chest and breathed in and out like I aways do. She became very quiet in my arms. Then she stirred suddenly. I put her back down on the floor as I thought I had hurt her. She picked up her head and barked at me like she does when she wants me to hep her up so I helped her up and she stood by herself. They said she could not do that.

    I told them to give her the chance. They will do another chest xray to make sure she did not asperate anything and they will give her prednisone in case she has sweling on the brain.

    We will see her tomorrow and decide whether to release her or not.
    I feel in my heart I will be saying goodbye to my beloved tomorrow.
    love,
    addy, zoe and koko

    Oh Addy!

    This just plain sucks and I'm bawling as I read your words.
    We'll all be praying for miracles!!!!! Standing up and barking at you are good signs in my mind, considering that they told you that she couldn't do that before. Hugs!

    Honestly I felt like I couldn't breath as I read your post.

    If ever you had any doubt of your ability to bring Zoe peace and comfort in the worst of times, you cannot doubt it now. Zoe wasn't ready right then to go and if there is a chance, then I think she'll take it. We don't know what tomorrow will bring, and if it must be, then I think she will tell you.

    I too am praying for a miracle, anything, as the tears stream down my face.

    love and hugs Addy,
