My heart just aches for you & Jasmine. I had to make that decision several times now, and most recently, last year when I had to have my beloved Maverick put to sleep after his health failed him. He fought valiantly for about a year, then lost his battle. Losing him hurt more than I ever could have imagined: he was the "love of my life" kitty and I miss him horribly. I still can't look at his pix or watch his videos without bawling.
The only thing that gives me peace is knowing that he's no longer suffering, and is happy & pain free at the Rainbow Bridge.
I won't lie to you and say it will be easy when you have to take Jasmine in on Monday, but you'll also be comforted in knowing that she will no longer suffer, and her passing will be peaceful. I'm sure she'll love you knowing that you love her enough to end her misery, and she'll be grateful to you too.
Spend as much time with her as you can these next few days, and give her all the attention & love that you have.
I had Maverick cremated, and set up a special place for him in the house as a memorial. I feel comforted knowing that he's still "with me". This may be something that you may want to consider doing.
I also had a special ring & bracelet made up to honor him which has his name & the dates engraved on them that I were all the time. I don't know if that would be anything you'd want to do, but I thought I'd mention it.
If you can't come around for awhile to talk about it, please don't feel badly about it: we'd all understand.
I felt the same way too after losing my Maverick: I still struggle with it...
I hope your heart heals soon, and I hope Jasmine's passing is peaceful.
