It's been a while since I last penned a few words,truth is, it's been a hard and unhappy week for the Quelvehin gang. Hope, our premature cria succumbed to the bacterial onslaught that mother nature threw at her,and without a chance to develop any immunity had been in rapid decline all week.
With no chance of recovery it was with much sadness her life was ended this afternoon.
Without the plasma infusion we knew this was always a risk. Doesn't make it any easier though.
Thanks to everyone for their help and advice. Hope to write some happier stuff soon.

Shit, so sorry to hear that news. From here it looked like you did absolutely everything you could so don't blame yourselves. Hard to accept but sometimes, C'est la vie.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear this news. After everything you did for her, you didn't deserve it to end like this. Just remember the lovely moments you spent with her as part of your family and treasure your photos of her. I'm sure that your memories of little Hope will live on. See you both soon.
