 |  |  |  | Hey guys...Rhon, i had a feeling something was up when I saw your post. You know what I see? I see you doing the best you can and you have Dixies best interest at heart. With each passing day, she may get a little more sick, maybe in some ways making the decision a little easier.
As the ones who love her the most, you can choose, if you want, when she goes to the bridge. With Floppy, she was still eating, still seemed strong EXCEPT we knew she had bone cancer and she couldn't walk. It was only going to get worse. We could have taken extreme measures to help her go to the bathroom, but we decided instead of holding on to her for maybe a few more weeks, I wanted to let her go before she got more sick...more pain.
Sooooo, we all have our own experiences. One common thread here...we all understand how personal the decision and no matter when you choose to let her go, we will support you 100%.
I kind of like the idea of choosing a date. It seems so final, and I have never experienced it myself, but I can see how choosing a day helps one prepare.
No matter what we are here for you. We love Dixie so much. I think about everything you can give her, but the biggest gift is your love. She knows that and we know she has had the most wonderful life. My heart breaks for you guys. If you can, find a place in your minds and hearts, that no matter what, when you are struggling to make the right decision, remind yourself, you are doing your best to make the very best decision you can for her. That right there will always make it right 
We really do love you guys
