I'm sat here with a huge lump in my throat and tears in my eyes. Big hugs to you, your mum and Willow. It sounds like you know it's time, be kind to yourself and allow time to grieve xxx
Sometimes the people who are closest to their animals, both physically and mentally are the ones with the narrowest view. The opinion of someone who hasn't seen the animal so regularly is often much nearer the truth. We just don't notice subtle changes on a day to day basis, so I'm certainly not apportioning any blame. Close up my old girl looked ok, watching from a distance I could see how much she was deteriorating. My mum said straight away how much she had aged since last year.
Totally agree with this. Sometimes it is very hard to make that final decision and whilst we know it in our hearts speaking it out loud makes it so final. Thoughts are with both you and your Mum x
