Heaven

Yesterday, March 25th under the wonderfully kind and watchful eye of our friend and Vet Dr Debbie, Princess passed into the great beyond at exactly 9:30am.

Over the last few weeks, Princess had begun a downward slide as her cancer began to advance. Her pain was evident. We had no doubt of what we needed to do - the best thing for our dog.

So that's it then, the apparent end of this story. I'm left wondering what more I could have done.  Princess survived osteosarcoma for 5 months and 1 week, relatively pain free and in good spirits. That's 2 months longer than the average. Not quite what we were hoping for, but enough to appreciate what a great member of our family that she was - and how much she loved us.

Everything that I could ever say about Princess has been written in these pages. She was a sweet loving member of our family, so brave til the end. We are incredibly fortunate to have spent six great years with her. She was the Best and Bravest Dog Ever. We miss her terribly.

Thanks for reading and all of your support.
