But that because it been a hard week for me by proxy . My sons pet cat had to be taken to the vet ,he had a swelling in his tummy that my son noticed on his return from Norway . Took him to vet and told he needed an op, After paying £85 for an xray we decided that we would take him to the PDSA in Brighton . they were very good and said they would see what they could do , But sadly they could not remove e the lump it had grown and was on the brink of bursting . So sadly had to agree to letting them put him to sleep .

My son is devastated ,its hard watching a 28 year old man cry and sob ,( well 28 today) this was the day before his birthday . Even at this age a mother wants to just to be able to take this pain away . But it part of growing I know

, And I know that he would if he could take away my pain , and make my life better .

I am hoping my treatment works this time ,at least some , and I hope my son will go out this eve and enjoy his birthday a bit , he is my baby even now . lol . But my head is hurting my neck ,shoulders and feet are burning , my back well has got worse and hurts more and everyday regardless of what I do or even don't do . But my heart hurts most today for my son , and I cry when i think of it .

I know how it feel to lose animals, I had to have both of my Cats put down, one of them had cancer, and the other one who i had for 20 years had heart problems, I cried for days,

I still think of them now after 5 years, some people out there don't relies how much they mean to a family. My mums words to me then which really helped was, Shirley you have given them such a lovely life, which they might not of got else where,

I was given this from the vet, Hope it helps.......

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow bridge. When a animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to rainbow bridge, There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends, so they can run and play together, there is food and water and sunshine, and friends are warm and comfortable, All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigour, those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.

The animals are happy and content except for one small thing: they miss someone very special to them who had to be left behind. They all run and play together, but the day comes when suddenly stops and looks into the distance. The bright eyes are intent: the eager body quivers, Suddenly it begins to break away from the group, flying over the green grass, strong legs carrying him faster and faster .YOU have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again, The happy kisses rain down your face, your hands again caress the beloved head and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life, but never absent from your heart, then you cross the rainbow bridge together.

Love Shirley xx

Pam I can truly empathise with you with regard to losing your beloved pet. I lost one of my dogs to liver failure last year age 12.5 and the other 3 years ago with dementia age 15. It took me a year to get another dog but there was a big void in that time. You need to grieve for your pets as loved members of the family. Happy birthday to your son and hope he manages to enjoy his birthday.

Shirley what beautiful sentiments from your vet. When I lost my dog 3 years ago we were sent a card from the vets expressing condolences and that was really lovely. (ps good luck for tomorrow)

take care crisxx
