[Gpdd] MISC: Thanks to Everyone

[Megan Gladney]

Thanks to everyone for their kind wishes and comforting words. It means so 
much to have that support here after such a tragedy. Poor little Phylo was 
suffering so, and I guess I must take comfort in knowing that we helped stop 
that process by helping him to the Bridge. At the end, he was getting 
Critical Care by syringe, he had to be disimpacted a couple times a day, we 
were trying Cisapride to get him to make some little beans, and he was 
unable to stand by himself from a side-lying position. His attempts to walk 
were heartbreaking to watch. We kept him up on towels for cuddles and hand 
feeding for the last three days of his life, so he was a bit more 
comfortable. We made up a little memorial card to send our vet's office for 
their kind care - if anyone wants to be e-mailed a copy, we'd gladly send 
along one to you - just send me an e-mail and I'll forward it on to your 
address. As silly as it sounds, here is the poem I wrote to be placed upon 
the card:

"The time has come for me to leave my Mom and Dad behind
But I know I'm always with them in their hearts and in their minds.

They gave me costumes, toys and treats, they gave me lots of love.
Now God has given me angel wings in my new home up above.

Don't cry for me, please don't shed tears - I am not gone forever.
There'll come a day we'll meet again and cross Rainbow Bridge together."


Thanks again everyone.


Megan, Jerry, Oscar the Skinny Piggie and Phylo, in Memorium.
