Update 04/03/02:
The news was not good, I have no idea how to spell the medical terms so I'll do the best I can. Thyroid carcenoma. A rapidly matastasizing type, already shedding cells and found in the fluid in her chest. Surgery would buy her 6 months tops, and much of that time would be recovery from surgery. Sad, but I refuse to make her suffer for my selfish reasons. She will go to the bridge tomorrow around noon. Her breathing is very laboured now and she doesn't get up much. She still comes and greets me, but it pains me to see her trying tp please me. I'll miss her greatly. I'm sure many of you have had to endure similar experiences. And I've had dogs before and still do, but for some reason, and I don't know why right now, she was just extra special. Maybe it was the way she showed her gratefulness. She always said thank you in her way. She is the perfect little lady.
Thank You All So Much,
steve

I have been following this thread waiting for some news on Somba. My thoughts and prayers are with you now, and will be with you tomorrow. Know that you are doing the kindest thing you can for Somba. I know of one beautiful flashy fawn male that will be waiting for her when she arrives at the bridge. Ask Somba to say Hey to Buddy for me.
Remember we are all here for you when you need us.
Godspeed Somba

Steve,
I too, of course was hoping for a much brighter outcome for your sweetheart. I took the walk you'll take tomorrow last Oct. and I just want you to know that I will say a prayer and light a candle at noon tomorrow to help light Somba's way on her journey. This will be the hardest yet most loving and kind thing you can do for her now. She will understand and will try to comfort you in the end. Remember you still have tonight and tomorrow morning...make them just as special as you possibly can..and this may sound a little odd but if you can take some pictures of her. You may not be able to have them developed right away, it may take you a while to get there...but believe me..one day those pictures will be a cherished memory of sweet Somba. Please remember that when you want to talk about her that we are here to listen and if you feel a good cry coming on..let us know because we cry right along with you. Take Care and May God Bless You All. Debbie K.
Dear Somba,
Good Speed as you make your journey tomorrow to a brighter and better world, where there will be no more pain or illness, You will run and play like a pup again and you will be able to watch over your Mom and Dad who love you very much and always will.
Somba, when you get there just ask for Hannah who will be there to meet you and help you adjust and eventually get you into all kinds of trouble along with her fiesty self. And Somba when you see her, please tell her I still love her and always will. Take care sweet girl. Deb K.

Steve and Sandy,
I also want to suggest that you take some pictures tonight. As Deb has said, it may take awhile before you can develop them, but yes they do become a cherished memory one day. We too took the walk you are taking tomorrow, a year ago February. Many of us have done so, and we not only understand, but I am positive most of us are knowingly feeling your pain tonight. God Bless all of you, and a candle will be lit here as well, beside our forever burning one we have for Buddy.

Steve --I am so sorry that the news is not good...Somba will be in my thoughts tomorrow. And do take pictures.....Had Draco told me that he was going off to the Rainbow Bridge on Jan 28th, I would have taken many many pictures of him...........
Sweet Somba girl..........you have a long journey tomorrow. Before you know you will be in a wonderful place, with many beautiful friends. You will get to meet a fawn Boxer with a long tail.....you cannot miss his tail. When you meet this boy, will you please tell him that I love him and miss him all the time. Also remember to tell him that he should not terrorize the kitties. Somba, not only do you have a long journey ahead, you also have lot of messages to deliver.
Somba---Be good and be happy...........God speed.
