I’m sorry. This is always so sad. I’ve learned to just be grateful for the time they gave me so much happiness and comfort. We know as soon as we get them that their life span is limited and that is the reality we accept. We do our best to keep them happy and healthy, but in the end when it’s time to say goodbye, we do it because we love them and the loving thing to do is end their suffering. Stay with him until his last breath. Make sure he knows that it’s okay to go, and that though you’ll always love him, you will be fine. I don’t know how much they actually understand, but I treat them as if they know exactly what I mean. If I’m wrong, it won’t matter in the least, but if I’m right, then I’m giving back a little of the comfort that they have given me for all the years I was lucky enough to have them in my life.
