Because so many of you were kind enough to post or send personal messages of support, I thought I'd let you know that Amber's test results came back to the vet's today and showed that there was nothing more that could be done to help her; she had a degenerative kidney condition that was just going to make her weaker and weaker, so Stella and I took the painful but easy decision to let her go when she was still free of pain, and after an injection into her drip she died peacefully in my arms, with me stroking her between the eyes as she loved, at just before 5pm.

Hello Stu
Really sorry to hear the very sad news that Amber died four days ago now. My apologies for missing this news and mentioning it in another thread. The pain will lessen with time but you never forget. My avatar is of a simlar rat to my "Teddy " who died in 1981. We only had him 4 years and he was our friend; after all the time you've both had Amber it must be awful for you. I hope UMSF can take your mind off of the grief for short periods at least. I'll keep a closer eye on this thread in future. Roy F |
