Buster


Buster
1995 - 2008

My sweet baby boy is gone. Buster lost his battle with cancer yesterday. I can't tell you how much my heart hurts. I know he's in a better place now and he no longer hurts but I miss him so much.
I can't say enough nice things about our vet. Dr. Tom was patient and kind and loving. He came to the house and allowed us to have a peaceful and loving time with our baby before he passed on.
He gave Buster a sedative to relax him. Then we took him into the living room and I held him and my husband and I spent time with him, talking to him and petting him.
But Buster kept fighting the sedative. So Dr. Tom had to give him a second shot. That eventually helped him rest enough so that he fell asleep in my arms and then the vet gave him the last shot.
Buster took his last breath in my arms.
I can't remember the last time I cried so much. And I think I can count on three fingers the times I have seen my husband cry and yesterday was one of them.
Afterwards, the vet gave us a Tibetan prayer ritual that we are going to do out on the deck today.
Rest easy, my baby.
