Thanks for asking Cath xx I am ok, most of the time , just trying to get on with life without Nelly which is not easy but we are both trying hard . Reuben saw Anna picking up his friend from over the road and ran to the door in excitement so I shouted over to Anna if she could take him an extra...

Thank you again , for your kind supportive words . The other evening when we were settled and watching a programme , Paul suddenly asked me , where is Nelly, is she on the sofa with you ? Honestly, it floored me because just in that moment, he had forgotten that our little darling had gone . Its...

Thank you all , you are such a support and I do appreciate this so much . I think I might be being too hard on myself , expecting to cope more than I am doing . Reuben has to be our priority now , he has just come home from a happy day at playgroup , he is having lots of cuddles and honestly ...

Oh dear friends , I am struggling terribly , more so than with any of my late dogs , probably because Nelly was so vulnerable but also brave and stoic . I still believe that it was the NSAI that caused the awful bleeding internally and this brings a massive weight of guilt because I gave it to...

My first great granddaughter was born via C Section on 25th March , we are thrilled and so good to have something to smile about in sad times . I love this photo of Debbie , her first grandbaby , welcome baby Aurora Isobel xx

I am so sorry for your sad loss xx

@MellowYellow , my thoughts are with you too and I truly hope that both our boys begin to heal xxxx

Nelly came to us in 2017 . Her previous owner simply didnt want her but we did and she had the best of everything with us . Reuben is still a bit lost , @Emily_Babbelhund came over on Saturday with Carbon which cheered him up no end . It is so hard for the existing dog who has never been the...

Thank you for asking after us . For me , today has been a day of deep sorrow with that little voice in my head asking , did I do the right thing ? , but I am trying hard not to listen to that little voice . Reuben is heartbreakingly quiet , I decided to let him go to playgroup to keep his...

Thank you dear friends, for all your lovely comments and memories . I am so sad that her last 24 hours were in the hospital and that her last moments were in a strange place where she just wanted to come home but at least I was with her in those final moments , to cuddle her in my arms and tell...

Our brave little soldier passed away so peacefully in my arms at 3 o clock this afternoon , free of sickness and pain . She played such a massive part of our lives and the lives of many people , she will be so missed xxxx

I have spoken to the Vet . Nelly is a very poorly girl and so we are going over to the hospital to say goodbye to our special little love . The Vet is in complete agreement that it is the kindest thing to do , but oh Lord, I feel like the worst person on earth . We will be able to spend a little...

Just a quick update . Night nurse has just rung , no real improvement I`m afraid . The Vet is going to call later , it could be mid day before she rings , so its a horrible wait for now xx I have read that as it progresses , chiari can cause stomach/bowel issues as the swelling on the spine can...

I am waiting for the night nurse to ring and give an update . The Vet called me last night , she said that despite pain relief , Nelly is very distressed and sstill in some pain, especially around her rear end . She said that she had managed to carry out an examination and that she could feel...

Thank you @Emily_Babbelhund and no , you werent over stepping the mark at all xx Nelly is in hospital , on fluids and pain relief via canula after she began to lose quite a lot of blood from her bottom this morning . She wasnt too well during the night and had refused food yesterday evening. We...
