As I try to write this, my heart is still breaking for my little Jack.  He was so special.  He was a  tiny shi tzu and the very first time I saw him, my heart fell completely in love with him.  Two weeks after I got Jack, he developed some sort of neurological problem.  His eyes would twitch back and forth and he soon stopped eating and drinking.  I took him to work with me the next day and gave him water with a dropper until I could take him to the vet that evening.  They admitted him immediately and started steroid injections.  He got better and came home.  I was so happy to have him home.  The vet said that he should stay on the steroids for two weeks and then I could wein him off gradually.  However, when I tried, he worsened every time.  The last time I tried to take Jack off the medication, his right eye popped out of socket due to the pressure.  The vet and I decided he would remain on the steroids indefinately.  He improved just like always and was doing great.  However, two weeks ago, my husband came home and found that Jack had passed.  I thought that my heart would break.  I had lost my daschund previously to getting Jack and I thought I could never love a pet as much as I had Molly.  But Jack was special and he stole my heart completely.  I miss him more every day.  I loved him and he showed me that he loved me.  I would carry him everywhere and he went everywhere but to work with me.  I only had him for two months and most of those were spent trying to get him well, but they were some of the most special times of my life.  He is missed more than I could ever express.
