[QUOTE="Mom2oddson, post: 536332, member: 65"] It sounds like Molly is suffering from "Failure to Thrive", we've had 3 animals do that. It's just their body shutting down. There is nothing you can do for them. The thing to watch out for is that if they get too thin, they will have seisures. And they will be violent ones at the end. That is what happened to Mason. So, when Annie started to Fail to thrive we just watched her and didn't let her get to that point. I've been there for at the end for four dogs now. It's hard, but I'm glad I was there. I was able to tell Buddy thank you for all the love and support he had given me. He had been my rock through the heck I went through with my ex. And he was easy child's big brother. I was able to tell Mason that I loved him and thanks him for all the laughs and exercise he gave me. And to apologize for letting him get too sick. And for Annie, I just gave her as much love as I could pour into her to thank her for all the love she gave me. I lucked out finding a vet that will come to the house so that we could all be at home to say good bye. It's about an extra $60 then going to the vet but it was so worth it for us. If you do go to the vets, see if they will let you do it outside away from the office setting. It will make it less clinical. My heart goes out to you. Just love Molly every second. {{{HUGS}}} [/QUOTE]
