Our Lilly is in kidney failure... UPDATE

[ Edited ]

We have a long haired chihuahua who is about 16 years old. She is in kidney failure now. She is love of my granddaughter's life. We all love her but she is definitely my granddaughter's love. She picked her out and named her Lilly when she was 7 years old and she will be 23 next week. My granddaughter suffers from anxiety and Lilly has been her everything. Lilly is going to stay at the vets for a few days to see if they can help help but obviously they may not be able to. I am in tears. Last week my mother passed away and we are still grieving that. I am just sick. Woman Sad

Re: Our Lilly is in kidney failure

@KCDiva   I am so sorry your family has such heavy hearts right now.  First let me say that I am sorry about the loss of your mother.  I have been through this with both my parents.  It gets easier, but part of your heart is missing forever. 

 

I am sorry about Lilly.  I pray that she doesn't suffer.  I have also been through pet loss.  Another hard life experience, but the joy they bring is worth every tear.  

 

Prayers to you and yours during this difficult time. Heart

Re: Our Lilly is in kidney failure

@KCDiva   I'm so sorry your Lilly is not doing well. As a coincidence, 2 yrs. ago my Mom passed away the same week we had to put Sadie, my older beagle, down. I spent months crying over the loss of both. 

 

I hope Lilly will be OK, but at 16, so many things happen to our beloved pets. Prepare yourself, if ever possible.

Re: Our Lilly is in kidney failure

So very sorry for the loss of your Mother.  A mother and child's love is very special:  a very hurtful heartache you're enduring.

 

Also so sorry for your furbaby's failing health.  Hopefully, the meds will help your precious Lily - prayers to St. Francis to heal your precious girl.

 

Sending loving hugs and prayers to you and your family, especially your granddaughter.

Re: Our Lilly is in kidney failure

@KCDiva - I'm sorry to hear you're going through such a tough time.  These things never get easier and there's little anyone can say to help.  Just know that many on these boards will be sending you and your granddaughter positive and healing thoughts and prayers.

 

Lilly will know she's been very well loved for all these years.  That's all any of us - human or animal - can ask.  Heart

Re: Our Lilly is in kidney failure

KC Diva, I am so sorry for you, your granddaughter, and your poor little pup. I am going through the same thing. With my beagle it's terminal cancer. I posted about it and have received such wonderful support. I want to pay it forward to you and your granddaughter. We love these dogs and they love us back unconditionally. The loss is so very painful.
