Absolutely the right thing to do, but certainly not the easiest! I admire you, you showed the true meaning of doing the right thing by your horse when she needed you most! RIP sweet little baby! Don't be hard on yourself, take it easy! xx
Another quiet follower here.
Much respect for you and peace for your little one.

She's lucky to have had someone love her enough to see her on her last journey.

Just caught up with this thread, I'm so sorry, RB, very sad. But she had a loving caring owner to care for her in the last few weeks, and I'm sure she went knowing she was loved. Night night Little Athena xxx.
So sorry to read that you have lost your girl. i know it is hard to lose them at any age but to lose them when they are so young makes it even harder to deal with. Thinking of you. xxx
I haven't read all the replies but one thing I'll say is other posters have no right to say 'have her put down'... Sorry, I'm sure the OP will do everything right by her horse but no one can tell her what to do IMO.
OP I'm very very sorry at the news but as others have said Cancer doesn't instantly equal death. Speak to your vet and go through your options but ultimately the choice belongs to you and no one else.
Lots of support sending your way. I lost my boy several months back and I know how hard it is to make these decisions but please please don't be pursued by others opinions (even with the best of intentions), you know your horse and your vet knows the illness.
