we lost china tonight

Carol  ·  Sept 18, 2014

she did not want to eat her lunch today and started vomitting in the late afternoon. she had not had any pain meds since the morning and when i finally got some into her after work, she threw them up again. it looks like china finally decided that her cancer was making her feel unwell. i did not want her to be 24 hours without pain meds and feeling nauseated until morning when i could get her into our vets for euthanization so i took her to emergency tonight and she passed gently from there.

rest in peace china, you were a sweet, sweet dog. all of us will miss you here.

To see China was to witness the greatness of a dog who just lived in the moment.
Despite her cancer and her lumpy body China enjoyed living….it always made me smile to watch her bouncing enthusiasm while "working" and eating out at the barn……RIP dear girl….
