On January 24, 2013 we lost our beloved Maggie Mae. We could not be more heartbroken but take comfort in the fact that she is no longer suffering.
We adopted our munchkin in August 2008 at age 11.5 and had 4.5 wonderful years with her. We all learned so much from our little MagPie! She was so loving and had a heart of gold. We are so extremely thankful that God brought this sweet girl into our lives.
Unfortunately in June 2012 the doctor found a tumor in her anal gland and was almost positive it was cancerous. Due to her age he was unable to operate to remove it. Prior to this she had been put on numerous medications to include a daily IV. Even with all these ailments she was a happy girl. On January 15, 2013 we had to take her in to see the doctor as she'd had an existing cough that seemed to be getting worse. The doctor put her some additional medication and found that she had what they call "old dog" bronchitis and an eye infection. We attempted to nurse her back to health but she got progressively worse. She stopped eating and drinking and we knew her time had come. One thing about Maggie is no matter how sick she was, she never missed a meal!
There are so many fabulous memories of our girl and we will always remember her. We are happy to have celebrated her 16th birthday on January 1, 2013. We love you so much Maggie and your will forever be in our hearts. We look forward to the day our paths cross again our little princess!
Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
