Reply #4: I was with Sweet Sirius when he died .. a year ago this Friday.

I know how you feel, Goclark. It was one of the hardest things I have ever done. His lungs were filling with blood from the cancer, so the veterinarian ended his suffering. Sirius fought the good fight .. six months of chemo and a surgery, with a relatively good quality of life right up to the last couple of days. He died with his head in my arms.

Thanks to those who organized this jazz funeral for the pets in New Orleans. It is a fitting tribute and I join them, vicariously. May we all meet at the Rainbow Bridge.
