[QUOTE="lil booshka, post: 2043190, member: 118993"] UPDATE : Today has been really difficult for me. I took Booshka to the vet this morning, with every fiber in my body believing that whatever it was that was making her feel this way, would be treatable. However, after a few moments of examining Booshka, the vet came in with a very concerning demeanor. “So, I have some bad news. She has a tumor growing underneath her tongue in the back of her mouth, leaving her very little room to eat or breathe.” I couldn’t contain my emotions, and immediately started shedding tears. I was finally able to muster the words, “So what are our options?” She replied, “You don’t really have any good options. I would recommend euthanasia, because surgery would most likely result in her passing. If you need a few more days with her, we can give her some pain meds to make it easier for her.” Of course I wanted more time with my sweet Booshka, but knowing the discomfort she was in, with a reluctant heart, it was agreed upon to go ahead and put her out of her misery. I was so unprepared for this scenario, it was impossible to control my emotions. Walking into the vet, I just assumed that she would be walking out with me. As difficult as it was for me to watch her be put down, I knew it would be selfish of me to try to have her carry on in that state, just so I could have her around me. I thought about just abandoning this thread due to the circumstance, but felt I needed to extend a thank you to those who have provided input and advice to attempt to resolve the situation. Thank you all again. I know Booshka would have thanked y’all too if she could. [/QUOTE]
