He's gone. :(

[imabrat]

I'd like to thank you all for your hugs and prayers, but unfortunately they didn't help.
Tonight we had to put Dumbo down.

They were able to get his lacerations and infection under control. However, the vets found he had liver failure, and he wasn't eating.
He was getting nutrients through an IV.

Now let me tell you, I know exactly what that feels like. I don't want Dumbo going through that, it hurts too much.
I don't want him suffering, and we know deep down that if we brought him home he would be doing just that.

It's devastating, I'm heartbroken. I'm not ready for this, and I didn't have my chance to say good-bye. I told the vet, that before he goes, please tell Dumbo I love him.
We're going to get and keep his ashes, making sure he "comes home" again, and partly as a sense of closure for me.

Thank you all again.
R.I.P. Dumbo

I love you forever, Jumbo Bumbo. It's okay, you'll be fine now. I promise.

Aww Sonya

PM box is open for venting!

 

[imabrat]

Thank you.
He hasn't gone yet, the stupid vets office REFUSED to let him go until we signed the consent and/or payed the $1,000+. My mom went and signed the consent form and they'll do it within the next 24 hours.
Needless to say, we're getting a new vet.

This is my first pet, he's been my sidekick longer than my sib. It's hard, but as some closure we're going to get his ashes and keep him. I want him to "come home" happy. I know it sounds weird, but this is devastating to me right now.

I feel like I've let him down in some way. My dad took a picture of him today and showed my mom. My mom is a very strong woman, but she couldn't even bear to see him. I don't want him suffering anymore, but I can't help but feel like he's mad, like he's saying "Why did you let this happen to me?".

We had to put my cat Figaro down in March, so I know how you feel.
