(Sept. 19, 2003 - Dec. 12, 2008)
Bonnie and I said goodbye to Lucy for the last time today.
For about a month now, Lucy was battling cancerous mast cell tumors on her liver and spleen. Steroids mitigated the symptoms some, but chemotherapy apparently had little effect on the tumors. It got to the point where the discomfort was making life miserable for her, so we put her to sleep today.
Bogie, now 14 years old, is still with us and faring well considering all he has been through and his progressive arthritis. And, of course, we have little Jazz, our bouncy red puppy, too.
But we are sad to see Lucy pass at the relatively young age of 5 years. She was lively and lovely. We will miss her very much.
