Friday to Monday, after she recovered from her bad reaction to anesthesia, and before the final crisis, Jasmine had got to have a few last happy days.
She wasn't well, but was well enough to enjoy the things she loved the most.
She got to go for some nice walks and spent a day at the farm, things she loved doing the most--spending time outside with her pack. She lived for her walks and outings. Nothing made her happier than that.
Her stomach was too upset to eat her meals but she still enjoyed her treats. She was so happy to be outside with all of us.
I did keep her on the leash for her safety, but because all the ice and crusty snow was gone, I let her go anywhere she wanted, just following her, not controlling where she could go and where she couldn't. When she fell like trotting, I ran with her, I wanted as little limitations for her as possible.
All I ever wanted was for her to be happy. I always did everything for that.
I will love you always, Jasmine.

A sweet remembrance. We will all miss you Jasmine.
ReplyDeleteOh, Jana. Lovely, loving, Jasmine had some happy times - thanks to you.
ReplyDeleteShe does look very happy.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry for your loss. Jasmine was such a beautiful and happy dog, she was lucky to have you as her family. The love and support you gave her is so apparent in this blog.
ReplyDeleteOh my, she's simply beautiful Jana. I'm so glad that that you have all those sweet memeories. I'm sure you'll cherish them forever.
ReplyDeleteThank you guys. She had an incredible zest for life and she knew how to be happy.
ReplyDeleteWe have tons of great memories.
Such a sweet girl and you can just tell how happy she is to be out and about. She was very lucky to have you (and visa versa!)
ReplyDeleteShe was a pretty girl. I'm so glad you and Jas had a chance to enjoy some good days before you had to let her go. Hold on to those good memories.
ReplyDeleteThat's what she loved the most - to be out and about. With her pack, though, she wouldn't want to be out there without us.
ReplyDeleteWe are glad she had such a good day on Monday. We were happy too ... nobody knew what was coming.
She was lovely and you are the best Jana. Only you could have given Jasmine such a complete and fulfilling life.
ReplyDeleteI'm so so sorry this has happened to you. I hope you feel a little better every day -- I just feel this in my gut. Sorry, Jana.
ReplyDeleteThat is so wonderful. Mom says that when her last dog was diagnosed with advanced pancreatic cancer, she took her to her favorite place, the North Sea (in Germany). Her vet friend gave her medicine to feel much better for a few days and they did all the things Trine loved along the beach. It was still so awful to have to part with her but her and mom got to spend 3 wonderful days together doing what they loved. Mom is still all teary eyed right now and that was 10 yrs ago. So sorry about your loss.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, guys. She was such a wonderful, amazing girl, she deserved the best of everything.
ReplyDeletePretty girl! I'm glad you had some good last days together.
