OT Today's the day....Mercury
Today is the day he will be free.
Between 6:30 pm Pacific Time and 7:00-ish, this sweet little guy is going to be released from the burden of his flesh. His life has been so good, and full of so much love. He's been thrilled, chilled (*snow!*), filled with good food and lots of affection. In the past 40 hours, he's gone downhill fast. Last night he and I had a long conversation (you know what I mean), and it was clear to both of us what needed to be done. It was obvious that he had entered a new realm -- one that included pain (and more). This was not acceptable; there were other sudden failings of his body, too. (This, even though he's on new and powerful meds, which seemed to help for the beginning of the week but now have failed.) We'd thought he'd last a few more weeks, even months, but he won't. It was remarkable that, immediately upon my decision that this was IT and we had to do something, he became much more relaxed. He was able to sleep more comfortably and move around a bit better -- he KNEW. He knew he was going to be taken care of properly, that mom wasn't going to let "It" hurt him anymore. Since then he's stuck to me like glue, too, cuddly, sweet, and huggy -- very unlike his usual husky autonomy. The weather today couldn't be more beautiful, and every garden seems to have been zapped by radiation -- what explosions of bloom! Our walkie was incredible. He and I are slightly overmedicated today: Merc so he's not hurting and hobbled by weakness, and me so I don't have the loop of stress/increased pain/sobbing all day. I wanted us to enjoy his last day on Earth, not cry and feel sick and weak and miserable. We are definitely doing the best we can. He will exit this existence and go to his next one here, at home -- we've arranged for a vet to come to the house. I believe they'll do it in their vehicle. That's good -- so much better than the hospital! He'll be immediately greeted by profusions of huge joy by his compadres across the Rainbow Bridge -- there are so MANY of them!!! He's had so many doggie friends! He'll be free of his hurts, and his beautiful self will expand to fill the endless space of his giant heart. We love him so much. Please think of him with joy this evening, wherever you are, and help him on his way. Love, Sooz |

May Mercury's transition to the realm of the Rainbow bridge be peaceful and
full of love. I am sure my sweet Melody will pop on by the wave hello. And Merc can have fun chasing her. All my love to you, Sooz - may peace find you as well.

Oh Sooz -
I'm so sorry for your loss. I have several companions waiting at the Rainbow Bridge myself. (I can't read that poem because I always start to cry, just like I am now.) My thoughts are with you and Kevin. I know that Merc will be fine. I love you -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Dr. Sooz" wrote in message ups.com... Today is the day he will be free.
