Sorry Matt, I've been pretty broken up today too. I can't talk about it without crying. I just left a voice mail for you. Hank really calmed down and relaxed once the oxycontin got in his system and he was comfortable until the vet got there. He died very peacefully in my arms. Bob came over and helped me carry him out to the yard to bury him.

Hank was such a great dog. Probably the most intelligent dog I've ever had. The vet was amazed he lived as long as he did after the cancer was found. He was sure a fighter. He was trotting on the trails and chasing rabbits up until yesterday so he really enjoyed life.

I'm at Bob's house tonight because I didn't want to stay home alone. I'll call tomorrow. Love, Mom
