 Lilli's Legacy
A Tribute
to Lilli
Now at peace my body
lies,
but within these pages my spirit flies!
Wanting Lilli
to exist outside of my memory,
Lilli's Legacy was prepared to both memorialize her
and to guarantee that her death was not in vain.
Lilli experienced
a peracute onset of AutoImmune Hemolytic Anemia on August 1,
1999. Without delving into specifics, she exhibited persistant
autoagglutination and symptoms of intravascular hemolysis. After
exhausting almost all therapeutic options,
Lilli succumbed on December 1, 1999.
She was an absolute
joy every minute of her life and not a day went by that I wasn't
amazed by her intelligence, pureness of spirit and sweetness.
The treacherous act Lilli's body played upon itself and the resulting
emptyness in our home is overridden by our great memories of
her. I feel so blessed to have been her Mom.
Hoping to use
the knowledge gained during our experience to benefit someone
else, Lilli's Legacy summarizes information compiled from numerous
articles and veterinary manuals. Please use this as supplemental
information to help you make informed decisions while discussing
your dog's care with your veterinarian.
