Misty Passed Away Tonight

Misty Passed Away

It is 11.28pm on Tuesday the 15th April 2008.
I am sitting here crying and trying to type this text through my tears of hurt and loss that my little dog Misty passed away just before I was going to go to bed.
She made this noise which got my attention, I turned the lights back on and went straight to her, I was touching her as she was breathing funny and make unusual noises, the seizures had stopped, she was taking her last breathes with me beside her.

You see she had another stroke; this one was more severe this time as she was continuously seizing, I couldn't get her to a vet but I knew her time was up.
I always wanted her to pass at her home and not on a vet’s cold table.
I also wanted to bury her at her home where we live.

She was an old dog that lived a wonderful life; she gave me 8 wonderful years and 4 beautiful sons to which I have 3 of them still with me.
I was asking god all night to please take her as I didn't want her to suffer anymore.
And he did hear my pleas for her peaceful rest.
My wish for her was granted as she took her last breathe at 11-20pm on Tuesday 15th April 2008.

She was fine yesterday, walking around the yard with me, she would walk all wobbly because of her previous stroke a few months back.
This morning when I woke up to let them all out, she didn't really move, I thought she was just sleeping which she was, I thought it kinda strange she didn't get up to want to go to the toilet, however I thought maybe she was tired as sometimes she doesn't move till much later.
Gawd this is so hard to write. I am crying so hard I am making my head worse.
I got a migraine as well, but I need to do this.

Anyways I kept checking on her all day, calling her and patting her etc, then late this afternoon I was patting her again and I thought I will bring her into the lounge room where I can keep watch over her more closely.

I rang the RSPCA and spoke to one of the vet nurses about my misty who then suggested I take her in to be put to sleep or have a vet check her and try and save her, but I knew this was her time to go in peace with no more suffering.

My son suggested I wait just in case she recovered like she did the first time. He didn't realise how bad she was this time around until he sat down with her and he said we will take her to be put to sleep in the morning as he knew she was in pain from when I told him I could feel heat coming from her body at the touch.

This stroke was much harder on her because she didn’t stop shaking for hours and I know she was in pain internally as I could feel heat from her body when I touched her.
I actually did some research once again about dogs and strokes; she had a lot more serious symptoms this time.
I know she has gone to dog heaven with my Sam, her husband, her sons’ father and with my blue cattle that passed away last year from someone poisoning him
Misty use to keep him in line, she was his boss.
She is in a better place now with no pain and suffering and I guess soon she will be bossing them around again in heaven.
God will watch over her now until it’s my turn to go, then I will get to be with them once again.
I think I have gone through a box of tissues already.
One of her sons is going to miss her terribly as she was his play mate; he lost his other play mate recently being the blue cattle.
I am going to have to see if the other 2 brothers will get along and try and keep each other company now.
I guess patience to teach them to be nice to each other.
I have sent a message to my son that she had passed away and I am going to bury her in the morning.
That is going to be hard to do again.
If I think of anything I may have forgotten I will add it later.
It’s late here now, I am worn out from crying and my head hurts, not to mention my heart.
