Words do not provide justice for the service they provide.

I will never forget the date of Thursday, March 8, 2018, the day my world crumbled, but the day my sweet Roxie was finally not suffering anymore.  My sweet girl was suffering from cancer, several herniated disks in her lower back, and diabetes.  Wednesday afternoon it became apparent that I was faced with the devastating decision that I had to say goodbye to my sweet Roxie girl.  The diabetes and back issues had taken their toll.  Within a matter of a couple of days she became completely blind and her back end wasn’t supporting her anymore.
I had already made the decision to use Compassionate Pet Vet for their services, ever since a friend at work had told me about them.  So I contacted Compassionate Pet Vet, and arrangements were made for noon on March 8th.
Dr. Maggie showed up at noon, and was so compassionate and professional.  Her calmness and sweet quiet voice was soothing during this extremely difficult time.  I was devastated, concerned and apprehensive about my choice, but Dr. Maggie was comforting and calm, as my grief consumed me.  She assured me that I was dignifying Roxie with my decision.  Dr. Maggie provided comfort, and reassurance on what has without a doubt been one of the worst days of my life.  She told me that what I was doing was a beautiful thing for Roxie.
The opportunity of allowing my baby to cross over to the rainbow bridge in the comfort and calmness of her own home, surrounded by her fur sisters and brothers, and by the people who loved her the most, touched me in a way that through my agonizing grief, it brought comfort.  I held her in my arms as she passed, she knew I was by her side till the very end.  Dr. Maggie even sent a sweet card a few days later.
The aftercare that was provided by the Pet Loss Center, which was included in the fees, was so respectful.  They gave my sweet Roxie dignity and respect as they placed her body in the basket, covered in a beautiful purple blanket.  Purple was our favorite color.  They were so gentle and caring.
Even though it’s been a couple of weeks, the grief is still very strong and very physical.  There are times when it hurts to even breathe.  I miss her more than I can begin to explain.  I find myself looking for her, or glancing where she used to lay in the sun.  I know she is in a better place, and I will see her again one day, but the pain is going to take a very long time to be able to be a semblance of something tolerable.
Thank you for providing a caring service that allows our loved ones to leave us with dignity in their familiar surroundings and with those that loved them completely.  If anyone is facing this difficult decision, they should consider Compassionate Pet Vet.  Words do not provide justice for the service they provide. Thank you for helping me help my beloved Roxie.
