... and, at the end, Mr.Bangio has gone
I had to open my hand, and let him go
I took him to the vet and, in my arms, little by little he got asleep
And, silently, died.
I did it for love, just for love
with broken heart.
All of a sudden I felt the frost of winter ...
How terribly sad.
ReplyDeleteI am sure you are heatbroken.
Hugs to you and your family at your time of loss.
bisous
Suzanne
It was indeed.
DeleteThanks ...
I'm so, so sorry. Saying goodbye to our beloved pets is always hard. My sympathies.
ReplyDeletePets are special beingsand that is why saying goodbye to them is so hard. You are a sensitive person ... many thanks ...
DeleteI am so sorry, Daniela.
ReplyDeleteRight now I'm sitting next to my cat -- my sweet girl has had several vet visits and many tests the last few days and is not eating now. I hope we will be as brave as you and Mr. Bangio.
I had to be brave ... I couldn't bear to see him suffer. I wish all the best for your little friend ...
DeleteI am so sorry Dan, How heartbreaking! You did the right thing if it is any solace, a suffering animal is to sad.
ReplyDeleteI did the same thing with my dog, a King Charles who had heart failure...I feel for you. Hang in there. Sending love..What a beautiful post.

Well, that first comment of mine is not going to help you... On the other hand I feel no words can help you really. No doubt Vincenzo will do what he can, but such grief will only ease by living through it, by time passing. You are in my heart. As you know.
DeleteOn the contrary, Greetje! All the kind comments I received helped me very much ... I could share my grief and feel much love around me ...
DeleteI really appreciate every word you wrote to me and every time I smiled thinking of you, so ... thanks!
