Poorly Willow

This morning my beautiful boy was helped over the Bridge. The CT scan showed a kidney stone, bladder stone and pneumonia in his right lung. I am devastated, he was only 10 months old and yesterday he was popcorning round the room, he was such a happy pig. Poor Bracken is going to be so lost without him. The vet said there were too many things wrong to operate and to have stones like that at his age there was probably kidney disease from birth. I have been so careful with their diet and filtered their water. I can't believe I'm writing this.

You made the decision of pts with the thought of what was best for Willow. There were so many problems he had did you really want to put him through so many operations? He wouldn't have been happy. He would have been in pain and no piggie deserves that! To be pts was really the kindest thing you could have done given the circumstances. Nobody wants to think that they have caused their piggy to visit the Rainbow Bridge but he is out of pain now and is happy and waiting for you and Bracken to meet up with him again. Huge hugs you have made the hard decision that all of us have to make in the end. Well done for being strong enough to recognise that you did it out of love for your Willow and what was right for him and not to keep him alive for you.
 
you absolutley made the right decision,i have a medical background,even human beings with this situation would very much struggle with this diagnosis.Please keep appearing on the forum,we all support you.i am sorry that grieving is so painful,especially when it has been so sudden.you have loved and gained.Do look after yourself.:hug:
 
I'm am so sorry, you did the right thing, please don't feel guilty and doubt yourself.Weve all been there and it's the most difficult decision to make but shows how much you love them to put them 1st and end their suffering.Massive hugs to you at this sad time.

RIP Willow xx
