[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 447878, member: 4264"] Awww thank you Star for all of that. I do think just because of the history of her and her dog, she'll be back soon to the vet anyhow, its her way and she trusts the vet. I haven't seen her yet today but I know my friend, she'll be stopping by today at some point or tomorrow maybe, to see if I say anything more. I think you hit the nail on the head regarding how she'd view info from vet or outsiders so to speak. She knows in her heart she has to let go, she's not ready, and she's able to try to keep B comfy and maybe in her mind she's spending a last weekend of something with her furry friend and confidante. I'm going to let her set the tone about B I think in our talks. And do as said, be supportive, offer when that time does come to go with her if she'd like someone else there, and I do trust she wouldn't let her B linger in awful torment out of denial. I believe she's got her own mind set about a tiny bit more time and this is her goodbye phase. I feel so horribly for her, I know she's in her house right now purely focused on B. This is a woman who has a cat and dog bed in every room, who has 2 boxes in her laundry porch. One has lined up bags of dog treats, one of cats. She rotates from back to front for a few days each, to make sure they don't get bored with the same brands or flavors. She has handcooked every meal for her dog for years to maintain her health. Fresh ground turkey, white rice, mixed in with a measuring cup of kibble (everything is measured for the right amount as per vet). She isn't some wack job ;). She simply adores her pets and takes care of them with proper attention and values them. [/QUOTE]
