September 28, 1994 - February 5, 2008

Well, tonight we said good-bye to a beloved family member, Sebastian. He had a seizure this morning around 11 and Scott took him to the vet, where he had a second seizure. This afternoon we discovered that the seizures left him with no feeling in three of his paws and the vet was pretty sure he was blind, too. Blood tests revealed he was anemic and the cause was traced to a ruptured tumor that was bleeding into his abdomen. With all that said, we made the only decision we could. Me and the kids went to the vet's office tonight, with Wendy's kids meals---the kids ate while I visited with Sebastian and said good-bye.

I was so sad to read this. I cried remembering that sweet pooch and how he'd nuzzle underneath your hand to make you pet him. What a sweet, sweet dog! Praying for y'all as you grieve. :hug:

We've had to make "that decision" too. It's tough. We definitely know how you feel. He was a great dog.
