I lost my soulmate and im devasted

I lost my soulmate and im devasted

Arthur was with me for 9 years only he was diagnotized at 7 with heart disease and was on meds all that time, he did well until last winter when his breathing became difficult, the vet added meds which did not help ,he had no fluid in lungs and never had but his heart became very big and thats what was believed to compress his lungs, i been to cardiologist which new treatment did not work eiter, his cough was so bad that he had difficult to sleep ...

After searching online i found about aerodwag inhaler with seretide i tried it and after few days he got better and cough dissapeared by 80% .... But little more than 1 month latter it came back again stronger that the only thing that could help him was when i carry him against me in a sit like position to help him breath. One night his cough was so bad that he collapsed on the floor and he got back after a while in my arms , few days latter i had to go in er because he could not lay down without coughing at each expiration , he used hid tummy to expire the air each time ,they gave him a morphasol injection and he stopped cough for 24hrs with also being very sedated , then after the cough was back and i again been to a cardiologist who did not help much and gave another antibiotic , 9 days latter his tummy was big because i think when he eat and drink he shallow air , he was gasping for air streching his neck , i been outside with him carry him around and letting him walk so he could poo hoping he would get better but when i back nothing changed , his breathing was still bad and he could not lay down , i decided to go in er and i told them that the morphasol helped him last time , they did the injection i asked the minimum dosage as always and 20 minute latter the vet came back to check him with his stéthoscope, when he finished Arthur breath got worse that we had to give him oxygen but that did not help , they said at this point its was better to euthanasia him and i cried i called my mother because i need mental support , we decide to let him go i stopped cry while they did the injection talking in his ear to try to calm him , then the vet said " he gone " i cried all the tears of my body , i keep regreting go to the er because the injection and vet stressed him that is surely worsen the situation until its was too much , i regret so much maybe if i had hold him at home longer its would have get better , i miss him so much he was only 9years old its way too young for a chihuahua, i just keep crying and not moving out my bed since sunday i dont have reason to live anymore i want be gone too i want to be where he is , i miss his smell , i miss hear him coming sleep at night in my bed , i miss touching him , i miss his beautiful inocent eyes , i wish i could see him again, i wish i could know if i could ever be with him again 😢

My soulmate is gone, i keep thinking what if

My best friend ,my soulmate is gone sunday, Arthur was a chihuahua of 9 year and 9 month he was diagnostized at 7 with a mitral vavle disease , the cardiologist at the time told me its was serious and he would last months... I almost collapsed when i hear it.

But as time passed and he got his medication daily he remain the same energic boy he always been i thought he would last years until last winter when he started to have breathing difficult, after doing xray the vet said he has a little bit of fluid in lungs and then we started the diuretic + antibiotic. Nothing changed but got worse he started to cough a lot, im back again to the veterinary he add then cardalis medication but again nothing improoved...

Until that night when he woke up coughing non stop , i then been to a renowed cardiologist which said he has bronchomalacia and very enlarged heart pressing in his lungs she put him on another antiobiotic + vitofilyn , again nothing worked but got worse that Arthur could not even lay down because of the cough and the abdomen hard breathing, i then searched online and found about inhaler seretide used for dogs with similar condition i then tried it and after 10 days around its improoved greatly his cough was reduced to 80% and his breathing was better i though finally something work...

But a little more than 1month latter he restarted to have cough and breathing issue he pushed so much with his belly for expire the air , the only way that would stop his cough was that i carry him against me in vertical position and go outside to get him so fresh air , and letting him walk once he was calmer , but things over time got worse and one time he got up with a bad cough and he loss his consciousness i tought he was dead its was so scary but he got back his consciousness in my arms.

He kept to had bad coughing non stop that i had to go in er where they did an xray seein that he has no fluid but the very enlarged heart , they gave him a morphasol injection which helped him for 1 day he was sedated but the cough stopped... Until again its restarded i again book an apointment to another cardilogist with false hope that she would give me something that work , the only thing i hear is that nothing could be done and with his condition i shall consider euthanasia , but in my mind i remenber its once improoved , she also had to give him a morphasol injection because he started to have breathing worsening there because of stress. She gave me another antiobiotic as a last hope because she mentioned its could be a infection? Like no one really could said what was wrong clearly...

On the 9nd day after, he kept coughing and breathing badly and his belly started to be big because he swallow air while eating/drinking thats what i think he then strech his neck gasping for air his tongue turned blue , i then go in er and said that around 2weeks ago he had a morphasol injection there that helped , the vet did the injection i asked him the minimum dosage, after the injection the vet left for about 20minute and came back Arthur was still not breathing well but nothing compared to what happened after the vet checked his heart and tummy with his stéthoscope he then started to breath so fast and badly that the vet put him under oxygen but he would not stop to be in respiration distress , he then said he mostlikely not going to pass the night and said euthanasia was the best to do , i started crying i called my mother to have some advice she said that i shall not let him suffer anymore and i let him go i tried my best to not cry and talk to him while he was getting the injections until the vet said "he gone" i then cried all the tears of my body, i bring him home in a blanket , we burried him in the garden and since then i keep crying i dont eat anymore nor leave my bed,i regret so much to have go in er because its seems that the injection+ stress make his respiration distress way worse , maybe if i had stay in home carry him longer he would have be better , i lost the wish to live everytime i close my eyes i replay this , i feel i will never be happy again ,i feel i dont have any reason to live... With all honestly i know its my fault i did not think at the time that go in er could be worse but thats what happened...
