Our dear little Sophie passed away yesterday morning.
She was diagnosed with heart disease when she was two years old. She was expected to live only about two more years. Her feisty spirit kept her going for six and a half years. She was a little fighter, who loved life, had a wonderful sense of humor, and a gentle soul.
Six months ago she was diagnosed with diabetes. I knew then that this was too much for a little one to bear for long. But she accepted her insulin shots and went on. I could see that for the past month since her brother, Robbie died that she was getting thinner and didn't have her usual amount of energy.
Over the weekend she went downhill quickly.
Zip is especially heartbroken. She was his 'Little Princess'.
She is terribly missed by all of us!
So sorry to hear about Sophie. Our pets quickly become part of the family and we feel their loss just as deeply.
ReplyDeleteThoughts are with you!
Special warm and healing thoughts to you and Zip today. I know the special love and bond you had with Sophie. You are blessed to have known her. Hugs(())) Cathy G

ReplyDeleteI know your pain.. my beloved St. Bernard Lucy died Tuesday morning suddenly and unexpectedly. I cried all day Tuesday, she was part of our family. Our hearts are broken, I just wanted you to know I understand what you are going through, and you are in my thoughts and prayers. Sophie was blessed to have you to love her. I know she blessed you with as much love as you gave.
