Not a day goes by that I don’t think about the difficult decision I had to make to end Caesar’s life. Even though I knew it was the best option for him, it was still one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. Caesar was my boy — my big, silly, greedy, strong, food-driven, smart, loyal, always tail-wagging, loving boy.
Being able to have the euthanasia done in our home meant everything to me. He was surrounded by family and love in the place he knew best… home. I’m very grateful he was able to pass peacefully without pain or suffering and no longer has to endure those terrible seizures.
I hate what those seizures did to him. I absolutely hate it and I am sad. They were violent and heartbreaking to watch, very traumatizing, so I can only imagine what he was going through. It still hurts just thinking about it.
Dr. Cherissa Hamid was compassionate, informative, and very supportive during such a heartbreaking time. I also want to thank Jenny for her kindness and patience while helping me set up the appointment. Both allowed me the space to vent. I’m truly thankful for the care and compassion from both of them.
Remembering you always, Caesar. Always. ❤️
