I am so sad to be writing another thread here so soon after Eleanor :(

My heart is breaking as I sadly had to have my beautiful Erin pts on Wednesday 8...

I thought we were turning a small corner when on Wednesday morning Erin helped herself to some veggies from the veg box and tucked in to some grass following her bladder flush on Monday which she had a hard time recovering from.
Sadly, this was not the case and whilst at the vets on her 5th visit, it was discovered that her eye infection had got much worse. The ulcer in her eye had in fact burst causing her pain and the only option was eye removal. After a long discussion with the vet, she felt that putting Erin through that would be too much on top of everything else she had been through and it would be unlikely she would make it through. The vet felt that the kindest option would be to have Erin pts 8...

It would seem that the stress and trauma of her UTI and Mondays surgery had caused Erin's eye to get worse. We noticed her eye protruding from her head late Monday night but it had settled down by Tuesday morning. She just wasn't strong enough to fight two illnesses at the same time which were playing off against each other. She was just 3 years old :(

My beautiful Erin, I love and miss you so much. I am so sorry that things turned out the way that they did and I couldn't save you :( I hope you can forgive me for having to let you go. Eliza, Ena and Enoch are grieving for you and you will always hold a special place in my heart.

My only comfort is that you are no longer in pain and that you have been reunited with Ellie. Please watch over Ena on Tuesday when I have to surrender her for her lump removal. My heart is breaking at losing two piggies in such a small amount of time, I can't bare the thought of losing a third.

Sleep peacefully beautiful. You will be in my heart forever. I love you xxxxxx

Oh Claire I'm so sorry :-( Run free over the Rainbow Bridge sweet girl, you will be very much missed but are no longer in any pain x
 
I'm so sorry Claire, i have tears in my eyes reading this she was a beautiful girl and you did all you could for her. Both her and Eleanor will be watching over you from the bridge. RIP Erin run free over the bridge x
 
Such a beautiful girl. You did absolutely everything you could for her Claire. You are a wonderful piggy mum.

I'm sure Ellie is taking good care of her at the bridge.

Night night little one. Sleep well xx
 
Claire, we are both so sorry, you did everything you could for your little girl and made the kindest decision possible for her. I am desperately sorry for you, I hope you are okay. All our love and hugs at this sad time.

Goodnight beautiful girl

Such a heartbreaking decision, but the kindest one for Erin in the circumstances; I'm so sorry, Claire, she was such a beautiful girl.

RIP sweet girl - and many hugs for you.
 
Claire I am so sorry to hear you have lost your precious girl. You made such a caring choice to have her be at peace and without the pain she was suffering from. I really am so very worry for your loss.
 
I am so very sorry, Claire. I'm sure Erin would not think there was anything to forgive. What you have done for her is the ultimate kindness and she is now pain free. x

Sleep well, sweet Erin, re-united with Ellie now. Play happily together at the Bridge and watch over your friends and your mum who miss you so very much.
 
so sorry hun :(
Remember you did all you possibly could, she had the best piggy mummy.
Rip Erin xx
 
I'm so sorry for your loss Claire. Little Erin can run pain free now over the bridge.
 
sleep peacefully Erin, run free at the bridge beautiful girl xx
big hugs for you Claire xx
 
I know how desperately you have fought to save Erin's life, Claire!

RIP Erin; you were Ffowlyn's little friend and therefore always very special to me. I am very sorry that will not be able to meet you again.

You were a fantastic Mum, sleep peacefully little one xx
 
Erin was so beautiful and she had a wonderful life with you Claire. You did everything you could but at least she is now reunited with her sister :)

RIP xx
 
I'm so sorry that you lost another piggy,losing one is bad enough,dont feel bad you tried everything you could for her and putting her through surgery when already poorly would have added to her suffering if she would have made it through,somtimes we just have to let them go,its heartbreaking as we love our lil animal friends but sometimes its the kindest thing to do,
I know full well what its like as my beutiful mr piggles was put to sleep a few wks ago and it broke my heart,his story is in the rainbow pets bit on this site,
So i know what you are going through,tho not the same but i know what its like when you have to make a decission like that as many of us on here do,
Anyway thinking of you and hope your rainbow piggies are munching danilions together x:)
