I should have done this post a lot sooner but it has taken a while to get my head round this and the following events sorry about that.
I shall start at the beginning;
On Saturday August 1st Bean threw up her tea, this was not unusual as she used to eat so darn fast, sadly this was not her usual food bolting
On Sunday morning I came down to find Da Popster sleeping on the sofa after Bean had soaked his bed twice in the night ( we thought she had tiddled but it was watery vomit we were to realise ). Our little spitfire was not herself at all. As Sunday continued our wee sprout got worse, constantly vomiting and not being able to keep even the smallest drink of water down add to that explosive liquid poops by mid afternoon we were extremely worried and decided it was emergency vet time. The vet thought it was gastroenteritis and gave her an injection and medication to stop the vomiting.These seemed to help a little at first but during the night and Monday morning she got worse and then black blood started pouring out of her behind so we rushed her back to the vets who kept her in to run tests and give her IV fluids. The vet rang me about 1.30 pm-ish and told me all her kidney levels were very high and she wanted to do a more extensive test which I obviously said was fine. When I heard back after about an hour the news was horrendous, all her levels were off the charts and the diagnostic machines could not read them, the vet had never seen anything like it before.She had acute chronic advanced kidney disease.
I felt my heart shatter as I was told nothing could be done for our darling girl, I got myself back to the vet as quickly as possible as I didn't want Bean to suffer a second longer than she had to all the while trying to keep it together so she wouldn't pick on my feelings when I got there.
Once I got there I spoke to the vet who was lovely and explained her levels etc and said she was very glad I had got there so quickly, I felt sick then as you can imagine. She bought my little girl out and all her fire, her cheekiness and her spark had left her eyes and she looked even smaller than normal. I scooped her up into my arms and whispered in her ear how honoured and lucky I had been to be her Momster, told her how much we loved her and sung her silly Beanie bum song and she crossed the bridge peacefully in my arms with my voice whispering quietly to her.
She was so brave and fought so hard in those two days until she had nothing left to give, Bean always gave her all in everything she did.
As you can imagine we are lost without her and so are her 3 brofurs.and it will take a long time for us to come to terms with this.
I shall leave you with this photo of our Darling Bean Sprout

We would like to thank Charly Kroon for making our Beans dream come true before she crossed the Rainbow Bridge by making her Mrs Bean Kroon. She loved her Charly with all of her heart & soul and he made her the happiest little Sprout with his love and devotion.
