My best and most loyal friend is dying ......

I'm so sorry to hear about that, D.

Just take it as it comes and let every day going forward be yet another one of the gifts that every day in the past has been with your bud. Enjoy him, pamper him, let there be no doubt in his mind that you'd do anything for him and give anything to him.

He'll let you know when the physical symptoms are too much for him to handle, they have an uncanny way of letting you know when it's time to say goodbye.
