I agree with Laura, though--it was nice to be able to hold him right up through the end. He went very peacefully and I was glad he wasn't suffering anymore. *hugs*Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08603420364898547499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8303070114275224113.post-82752183315899730432008-12-08T20:26:00.000-08:002008-12-08T20:26:00.000-08:00Amber, I'm so sorry.

I hold them in my arms if they are small enough, or I hug them as best I can if they are bigger. I hold my hand close to their nose so that they smell me. I hope that calms them--it seems to.<BR/><BR/>I will be praying for you and your sweet Chancie.<BR/><BR/>Love, LauraLaura in L.A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09799362516871105837noreply@blogger.com
