never wanted to write anything like this. Whenever I refused to think I could come to pass, although he could not deny that happen. Are the facts that occur even if we want to avoid: death is close to all, including those who want. Thyme
My dear, dear fox-terrier puppy died Sunday sweetly on March 30 from 8.35 to 8.40 pm, after suffering a severe illness: diabetes. Increases in sugar, dehydration, emaciation, insulin needles in his fragile little body. To weigh up to 11 kg when he was fat, decreased to 5. Was almost only a shadow of what it was: blind, weak, without appetite, a thirst in the desert could hardly calm within himself because he was the reason leakage of liquid that gives life: the blood sugar was consumed everything.
In a little over a week, developed the disaster: a diabetic crisis that left him in a near-coma. Was attempted, the poor, grasping to life when he was almost 3 days in the hospital canine, but in a few hours wishing for the steps you away from death. I saw him plunged into a dense tiredness, dizziness in a continuous effort comĂaa force and deception on our part, and in the end only those snacks that have been so well received in health (steak, meat sauce) you could try a bit: the last hours before his final.
think that I could not resist would suffer another night with complaints in a dream, and I decided to take him in the day seemed a bit more lively (what a contradiction!). I put him in the yellow bag, and half covered but with the head out, I went to where it was restored in the past and that would be the end. They hesitate to end his life because it always seemed a privilege that should never be denied, but when I took in my arms to my little company & # 241; erosion for more than 12 years, can not doubt, was abandoned, left morir quedando en total inmovilidad, sin ninguna capacidad de reacción, ni siquiera cuando la veterinaria -¡tan buena gente, comprensiva de nuestro dolor!- tuvo que reiterar los pinchazos en ambas muñecas buscándole la vena para aplicarle el catéter, tan deshidratado tenía su pequeño y flaco cuerpecillo. Un tranquilizante fue lo primero que entró en sus venas resecas aunque ya minutos antes dejó de moverse. Mi hermano Antonio y yo, en la soledad de la sala, nos despedimos de él con un montón de besos y frases cariñosas y conmovidas. El final le llegó con una overdose of anesthetic into a vein that did not alter their appearance prostrate, while I grabbed his head in my hands. "It's not your heart beats," said the vet using the stethoscope, and I was crying as we only kissed her forehead, touching her body au No warm.
Antonio made a couple of photos with a cellphone in case one day, overcome pain, we had the presence of mind to remember your last time. I do not think will happen, for we are all at home feeling left heartbroken of us the child who just glad this day with only his courageous and vital presence. Unfortunately now only remember his last seconds, the image of his little body still on the metal table with her beautiful eyes half open, and at the last moment and last few days off and almost sunk in their sockets. Now just remember his breathing difficult, their cries with thirst, your blows against furniture and walls for his blindness is severe, your body without flesh, my little bony Tomillita! Hope you can
overcome some day soon this experience, and this pain, this emptiness, and this loneliness that I feel for life partner, the partner rides, the friend always close, trusting and generous, many times over and filled with oppressive but his mere presence on sad, the happy getting warmer. We think
generated as love, created feelings of love in us, was so generous with his life ... since nothing is destroyed but is transformed, that love is not lost, say the Gospels, this little creature that was happy today "I trust, will have a place reserved for the Creator for all the beautiful things that made their owners happy. My mother hopes that Thyme is with the angels helping them in their work, and I dream that if one day God will have mercy on me and leads me beside him, the small Tomillita will receive me with sparkling eyes, your ears cinnamon their front legs raised and raised, ready to support them on mine to welcome me. Meanwhile, there will be happy, running around in endless green fields with joy in the heart, as I knew him.
A big kiss my dear Thyme.
