My sweet Millie has left for the Rainbow Bridge at 3 pm, Sunday, Oct 4th at Med-Vet ER in Columbus Ohio. She was suddenly very sick Sunday morning and we rushed her there at noon. She was critical and in ICU but they were working on finding out what was wrong. Suddenly her heart stopped and they went to intubate and she came back...then again it happened, they had to intubate. I got to see her and she "came too" and the tube was removed. She looked right into my eyes and gave me kisses. I was scared but had hope she would pull thru. 1 hour later it happened again and they could not save her, did CPR for 20 minutes and she was just gone. My heart is broken, I was in shock, I thought she would be in the hospital for a few days and come home to me. My sweet Millie, I miss you so much but I know you had to go, you were too weak to go on. I am grateful I had that last kiss from you. I know you just went to sleep and had no pain, please know I will forever hold you in my heart. 9 and a half years was not enough but I loved you every single day . I know you are happy and free now, and with your big brother Frankie. I will see you again someday...until then, sweet girl, remember how much I love you and you were such a sweet sweet gentle girl. You were a good dog and it was your time, be happy and play and wait for me.
love and Rottie kisses,
Mommy
