There are vets, great ones, and then there's ones that, and I hope they see this, now are my people. I'm here if you need a vigilante or something for an evil customer. Y'all are so o rare: Good Humans. The best.
We've been taking our animals to hillside for years. They were amazing when my dog breeds have died. We couldn't bury him, he's too big and the rocky ground and all, so they said to come over as soon as we were ready & they'd cremate him. He was. 100+ lbs and my mom and I were sobbing still, so. Uselessly, but 3 nurses together came up with a way to carry him and they sheet we used to wrap him and carry him with inside, even though he.. this mouth was still leaking Liquids and we didn't want them getting biohazards in them, but they didn't worry about it, just carried him in slow and careful. The male nurse talked to Brandon softly while they did and told him he's a good boy, that his family love him, that he's somewhere safe. I almost threw up crying at that.
And now, just less than 3 weeks ago, our only other dog Jasmine, about 90 years old now & due to a patuatary gland tumor, super overweight; she was a terrier mix, her belly was almost touching the floor. And she has clearly been in pain more and more recently. That day was it and.... I didn't know my mom was taking her. Didn't know till 6 hours after she'd died. But I had heard you cry out that morning, and I thought about going to bed early and see if she was okay.... And I didn't. I didn't and I didn't get to say by or even tell her shenwas good dog.
But today my sister found a letter our mom had opened but didn't show us yet cause.... Crying, and that's what the result was.
Those wonderful humans all, all of them, they hand wrote to us in a card about Jazzy. And I finally can cry about her (can't stop tbh). You won't find a better vet, or nurses, for your animals.
Thank you Dr. Aronon, Dr. Tiedman, Kacie, Lily, Sarah, Claire, Breanna, and Kelsie. I hope you all outlive me in good health and I wish I could give y'all something to say thanks - for this, for my Branson, for letting Jazzy go painlessly. You're all a credit to vets and nurses everywhere.
