Lucy, my beautiful baby, died yesterday. Last week, she fell ill after a shot to treat an auto-immune condition. She has had some ear problems and was scratching her skin until it would bleed on her feet. We thought that she was having a reaction to the shot, and the vet treated it with prednisone. Throughout the weekend, she had ups & downs. Lucy had a great day on Saturday - including a trip to McDonalds for a hamburger. We thought that we made it out of the woods. However, she started to decline again on Sunday. At her scheduled re-examination on Monday morning, an x-ray showed a large mass in her belly. The vet was hopeful that a shot of lasiks would help, but she really declined by late afternoon. We took her back to the vets because we didn't want her to suffer. She was so peaceful and sweet - it was so hard to let her go. I'm comforted knowing that she's in heaven with our other dogs - her mommy, Pepper; her brother, Raisin; and her daddy, Mayo. This was the last of our four pooches, so it's been extremely sad.
Here are some of my favorite pictures of my LuLuBee.
