Oh my beautiful Sweet Pea...You were our first baby right after daddy and I got married. You had the biggest paws and a heart to match. You were so sweet. You would sleep on my pillow above my head. When you came to us you were loaded with fleas, so we called you "Sweet Flea". (hahaha) You loved to lick the yogurt off of a spoon and to drink dripping water. You loved for me to brush you. Even near the end you would jump up to nudge my hand to let know. I love you so much! Sweet Pea...you were throwing up every day and finally on 2/1 I took you to Dr Sheridan for blood work. He called the next day and said everything looked okay except for Lipase(?) and he would recommend IV antibiotics and fluids. He would schedule xrays if I wanted. I said I wanted xrays before anything else. (I didn't want to traumatize you). I had an appt for an xray on 2/7 but since you were throwing up on Monday I took you in to the vet on Tuesday (2/6). I told them that I was bringing Sweet Pea for an xray and I would be back in about 20 minutes. I came back and the Dr. said he thought we should get you started on fluids right away. I said okay, but I wanted an xray. I went home and approx 12:15 the Dr called and said "I've got bad news" (I thought they found something on the xray), he said"Sweet Pea passed away". It happened as soon as they put the IV in. They said you just fell over. That's ridiculous! You were very much alive when I left you. I am so sorry! I am so angry!
