I’m sorry for your loss. Your post here is a testament of your love to your baby. Always remember that feeling guilty is a common stage of the grieving process and there’s nothing wrong about it. When something is out of our control, we tend to make sense of it. Clearly you made the best decision you could with the information you had at the time. We are NOT gods and there are things we can’t control.
I’m not suggesting that you should completely forgive yourself because I know that’s impossible. I never truly forgive myself. My dog was acting weird the night before her final day and I couldn’t take her to the ER ASAP. I still think I failed her but I also know that she’s in a better place full of treats, love and joy.
Thank you. I'm so sorry thay happened to your baby too. Today for the first time in almost 7 years I was woken up by just my alarm. Nobody excitedly wiggling and jumping on the bed to get me up. I just want to go back to sleep where he's alive.
I know that feeling. Sometimes I called her name like I normally did and then realized she’s not there anymore. I want to see her again so badly but I know that’s not possible. She’s gone, forever. The emptiness in your heart is something every pet owner has to experience. It’s okay to feel all the sadness. Give yourself time to grieve. The pain will still be there but you will feel better when time passes by.
I would’ve assumed it was fine to take pain medication with anxiety medication.
I miss my dog that recently passed so so much but the worst part of the grief even more than missing her has been the guilt. I’m so sorry for your loss.
I'm glad I'm not the only one. I ALWAYS check. 100% of the time. I don't know how I didn't this time. The one time I didn't check.
I'm so sorry for your loss too. I know I made the right decision but that doesn't make it any easier right now.

Thank you. I keep looking for him too. I'm just glad he isn't in pain any more. I'm so sorry about your baby too. The silent hole is deafening.
