Hi Sarah,
I feel your pain – I have a pet and he is more precious to me than most humans !
You are an intensive care nurse and you made the right decision under the presented circumstances. What you feel now is loss and pain which causes regret of not having done enough !!. I have seen this happen up close in cases of human deaths which are sudden, and it causes the same trauma in the mind.
Please DO NOT beat yourself up. Human or animal – if it is time to go, it is time to go – NOTHING can stop it !!!
As with humans who cross over, pets are our angels watching over us and always with us in spirit.
Please read this short article – it will help:
