Our dearest Maggie went to the Rainbow Bridge last week. It looked like she contracted pneumonia, but when the anti-biotics did not work, and she got worse on Sunday. We realized she probably had cancer that had moved to her lungs. I don’t know what it is about January, but we lost little Angel in January of 2001. I am beginning to think that January is just not a good month for us.
We got Maggie when she was 12 weeks old, and Dawn and I had just gotten married. She was 12 when we made that difficult decision to let her go. It was good to see her peaceful for the last few moments of her life. The previous 4 days she had such trouble breathing, even with the chest percussions and being surrounded by Vicks Vaporizers.
Maggie had lots of spunk until she got sick. She would still chase the other dogs and loved her two toys – her Frisbee that our Angel taught her to play, and her purple ball that ALL the dogs even the fosters knew better then to take from her.
We miss her, and the house is quiet. Rosie has been a God send as she has kept PD’s mind off of Maggie, and she snuggles with me.
