After spend the last week on this website and searching the internet at 3:30pm today I finally let Franny move on. I have cried for days. I stop her meds/sub-q Monday 7/21. I just knew it was the end. I did so much sole searching about her dying at home. Yesterday I could see she could hardly walk and as often as I tried to get her to lay in bed with me she kept going back to the closet next to my bed. At 4:45am last night I could not find her and she had moved to another spot in the closet. I put her back on my bed and when I woke at 9am she was back in the closet. I struggled today...so bad. But at 3pm I called my vet and i spent 30 mins waiting for him to arrive. I spent 30 min taking some pics and loving and hugging her. Her tail was moving when I said her name. But her eyes were not really focused on me, her organs were shutting down. She was on my bed on a soft blanket. My vet came in and gave her a quick shot and she just relaxed. About 5 min later he gave her another shot and she passed in a few minutes. Her eyes remained open(which I already knew about) I spent about 5 more minutes with her and then we wrapped in her blanket and I put her in the Vets car.
Right now I can tell you this was the smartest thing I have done for Franny. You will struggle till you decide and then when you see that your pet will be able to die while you are petting her you will know its the right thing.
I really hope that anyone out there today who is struggling to make this decision, just know its not as bad as it seems. My Franny is no longer dying alone in the closest. And probably would have died tonight in the closet with out me being by her side.
Franny Rest in Peace my best friend of 12 years.
