She died......it sucks....after 11 years we had to put her to sleep.
I think it's my fault she died, I didn't try to help her hard enough. If only I could have taken her to the vet sooner.

At this age they become tired and easy to get sick. My dog slowly began feeling too tired to stand up, so we took him to the vet who told me it was a problem ofthe bones caused by age and to give him a calcium medicine to make him feel a little better. It's fun if you think about it, his last week of life and he still could fight so much to stop me from giving him the medicine (it was a liquid), then I got tired and thought about mixing it with milk. It worked until the last three days, when he stopped even sitting. I went to the vet on the last day and bought a new, stronger medicine for him and one (for humans, but the vet said it worked for him too) to avoid giving him stomach problems. I smashed the stomach medicine in some milk, left it besides him because he wasn't feeling like drinking much at the time, tried to make him sit down, went to drink some water to give him time to take the stomach medicine by himself and, when I came back to give him the new medicine, he was already dead.
I don't feel bad. I did all I could to give him a life he would like.
But it still hurts.
I know what you're feeling.
