Canine Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (AIHA & IMHA) - RIP Coco

It is with a devestated heart and tears flowing that I let you know that after a couragous fight we had to let Coco go. We brought her home and was told when we did that they had also found a mass on her heart. They felt the masses in her lungs and heart were causing the breathing problems more then the AIHA. She didn't last at home for very long before we took her back to the vets but she got to say good bye to her buddies Max and Tito and her human family also. My son and I held her while she passed. It was sooo important for me that she felt our love. I know that it will get easier as time passes and pray for that time to come. We had her cremated so we could free her in her favorite field. She was as fast as any greyhound and loved to run..My family thanks everyone for their amazing support through all of this and will keep watching the posts for all the good news I am sure you will be sharing...Much love Kelly

Kelly, my heart goes out to you and your family. "May Kahlu and Riley meet her at the gate when she arrives at the rainbow bridge" cheryl said it all for me Remember Me Remember me when flowers bloom Early in the spring Remember me on sunny days In the fun that summer brings Remember me in the fall As you walk through the leaves of gold And in the wintertime, remember me In the stories that are told. But most of all remember Each day, right from the start I will be forever near For I live within your heart Author Unkown Laurie and Wylie

Dear Kelly, You have my deepest sympathy on the loss of Coco. You were there for her until the end and she felt your love. What greater gift could you give her. Like you, we had Kahlu cremated and I picked up the ashes today. What a sad week it has been for all of us. They will be spread by his favorite creek. Ryley and Kahlu will have so much fun with your Coco girl, running at the bridge! The compassion of all my new friends on this board have been a big help for us and I am sure you will feel that too. May the happy memories console you and heal your heart. Sending you a big hug, Brigitte

Kelly I'm so sorry to hear about Coco. You are in my thoughts. It doesn't seem possible but eventually you'll think of Coco and smile rather than cry.

Dear Kelly, I am so very very sorry that Coco didn't make it.....Lord knows you did everything humanly possible......we know she is now healthy and whole again, running and playing in Heaven and doesn't have to deal with this rotten disease anymore....I'm sure her spirit is closer than you think....I read that heaven ( the "other side" ) is only 3 feet away dimension-wise, and our deceased pets definitely are around us at times. May GOD bless you always....Tammy/Cody
