The End

Hi, this is Mimi. Um, I know it;s been a while since Maddie last "updated", and I am sad to say that today she lost her battle. This past week she just started to slide, really bad. She was no longer the Maddie I knew and grew up with. It started off by not eating, then walking, then drinking, and she bleed more. Today though, was the worst. She ate some chicken, and then threw it back up with blood. So my mother "Momma" made the choice to take her in. She was ready to go, though we weren't.

I only ask that if your dog ever starts to have the symptoms of cancer, please take them in. There are options, such as Chemo or removing the tumor. With Maddie we were just too late.

So bringing this blog to an end, I have just a few things to say. 1. I'm so grateful for the extra six weeks I got with her. When we found out she was sick, we weren't even sure if she;d live through the night. 2. I like to accept her as my Guardian Angel, it's just going to take time to heal. I've had a unacounted amount of support from friends and family, who loved her just as much as I did. We're grieving, but life shall go on.

Thank you for reading about Maddie's final weeks.
Much love,
Mimi.
