We recently lost our Candy Lee
by: Carol on Thu, Nov 22 2007

She was the most gorgeous PomPom you will ever see. She was 12 1/2 years old. Somehow, she started having accidents in the floor and lost her appetite. The Vet’s finding was kidney failure. She finished her one day treatment and did not make it the second day. The attending Vet explained that she just collapsed during the treatment and passed away later. Perhaps some embolism, etc. It is extremely difficult to accept that she is gone and won’t come back because she was okay when she was brought to the hospital. I need some advise. I have not been sleeping since she was gone. She died on 09/12/07 and I still place her pictures with me in bed. She slept with me in bed for 12 1/2 years until her time of death.
