I am so sorry. I like my doggie better than my kids... j/k obviously, but not totally. Dunno if the Rainbow Bridge is too hokey for you... I always thought it was for me... till I lost my 10+ year old Boxer Boy, Boozer. Then I asked someone to post it for me and cried like a baby!!

It's been a long time since she has posted, but I know she still visits from time to time.

Losing a pet is no easier than losing a human... I hope that you are able to find peace in this difficult time. God knows you've been through enough in the past few weeks.

Thanks for rainbow bridge, i really loved it and know its true. I have not slept yet, and its 5:30 in the morning and the boys are up with me. She was my first dog and i didnt get her til i was in college, so i had to leave her with my parents when she was 1, it was so hard in an apartment. They always told me I could take her back once i got an house, but they loved her so much i let her stay with them. My parents are having such an hard time and blame themselves. They felt they should of called the vet sooner, the doggie passed away while my dad was outside waiting for the vet. SHe told them there wasnt much they could have done for her, even surgery only had a slight chance of survival. The vet was shocked that she never cried. She just got up to go get an drink of water and hit the french doors and my mom ran to get her and she looked at my mom and took 3 breaths and passed away. They left her in the kitchen, and will take her down today to be cremated, they dont want to bury and i cant blame them there.

I never knew lsoing an pet was so hard. My kids are devastaed. They told my hubby that he had to stay home today cause ginger died. But my 6 yr old looked at me and said u know what mom, uncle and grandma were up in heaven waiting for her to come and play iwth them cause they were lonely until we can go play with them. And they are goign to pray for the dog today at school. I really have great kids. Why cant i be strong like them.

Ok im done rambling, see what no sleep does to me.

That's a tough thing to go through. I feel for your family. I was never a dog person, but am now. We too would also be devastated.

It's a cruel trick of nature that we humans outlive our animal companions, our friends that love us so unconditionally.

I'm very sorry. lm

thanks everyone, my parents are feeling so bad today. They blame themselves for not calling the vet sooner and for going to a meeting yesterday. Their lives revolved around this dog, she ws a very spoiled doggie. I told them even if they would have got her in, she would of probably still passed away, but they said then at least they could of tried everything they could. My mom took an pic of her right after she passed, and she looked so terrible, i put it on my screensaver, they tell me she didnt suffer, but for the looks of it, she did.

They are talking about another doggie, but they want a lap dog that cant hve this happen to it.

what she died from was bloat from too many grains, to me it sounds like a case of doggie celiac.

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      My question I have proposed to the FDA through their website is why Prescription and OTC drug manufacturers are not required to list what binding ingredients were used to bine the drug? They list this on Capsules which are made of cellulose but not on pills? As it stands I or my pharmacist must contact the manufacturer to find out and my list is long from...

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
