Goodbye sweet kitty

Thank you so much to everyone for your comments about my kitty.  This was really one of the hardest things I've ever had to do.  Yesterday was a really horrible day but I'm doing OK.  I know it was the right thing to do because he was suffering and wasn't going to get any better.  I was holding on to him because I didn't want him to go, but all it was doing was making him feel worse longer.


It was hard because he somehow managed to have energy even though he hadn't eaten in five days.  I don't understand it.  The experience at the vet wasn't good for him and we weren't able to be with him in the end.

My DH was wonderful through all of it and he and I have been holding on to each other a lot.  It was hard for him, too, and it was the first time I've ever seen him really cry.  He's such an unemotional person that it just really touched me.  I love him so much.

When we came home, there were flowers waiting for us from my parents.  My mom said she wanted us to have something bright in the house. 

So, now I'm just trying to move forward.

Today is my CD3 u/s.  Please send all the "cysts stay away" vibes you've got.
