After about a week of steady decline, we finally had to euthanize Angus today. His body could no longer fight the cancer. His will was there. He wanted to keep living, but his body just was not there for him. His passing will leave a great hole in our daily routines.
Update: I forgot to mention this. We happen to show up at our vet just as "Alexandra Day" was leaving. Dr. Obando told her about Angus and she gave us a signed copy of her book Not Forgotten. It was rather touching for us to receive this beautiful gesture in our moment of crisis.
