Hang in there, Amanda. This is a very hard time I know, but one small silver lining is that these little reprieves give you more time to prepare for the inevitable, and to enjoy your sweet Maggie Bear's last days. Our last year with Pepper was filled with many ups and downs medically, and I thought we were going to lose her more than once, only to have her rally back. By the time the end finally came, we had a terrible week, but my DH and I both bounced back pretty quickly after that -- I think because we had already gone through some of the grief work ahead of time, very different from a sudden, unexpected loss.

Thinking of you....
