I knew when my cell phone rang very early....before 7:00 a.m. and it was our veterinarian calling. Test results from the previous day revealed all was not well.....and never would be again. Along with numerous issues with Liesel's stomach, came the word I most feared. Cancer.
I don't have to tell you....my heart physically stopped...and I swear I quit breathing....I could hardly take in what I was being told. Thankfully, her Dad was right beside me....hearing it as well.
And within seconds....our world would never be the same.....all the money & veterinary care in the world would not help our girl...the final outcome would be the same....
We spent the final hours loving on her hard.....and with the support of our veterinarian....sent her lovingly on her final journey...two months short of her eleventh birthday....
Our hearts are crushed....we never expected this ending for a beautiful little soul. Today we woke up and for the first time in 24 years.....no little patter of paws in the hallway....
She has been lovingly laid to rest with Xena, Schatzi & Oskar.
Run free & healthy our sweet girl...until we see you again....

I'm so so sorry. It is never easy. I have lost all of my original blogging dachshunds and a few more. My heart hurts for you and will continue to hurt for you. Hold the memories close and cherish all of the pictures that go along with them. (((Hugs)))
