you are a good friend and I appreciate your love from afar so much! 
I talked to the vet at length and she said there was nothing I could have done differently, she made sure he was soothed as he left...and we are gonna go ahead and have him cremated. The kids and I bought some beautiful flowers to plant in a circle...an "O" for Ozzy... 
I swear, I cannot believe how much grief permeates your cells sometimes, you know? And how grieving in general becomes deeply connected to every time we have ever grieved for the loss of life and loved ones. My mom pointed out that this is preparation for when others pass and there's nothing we can do to stop that process but everytime we see a rainbow we talk to my grandma
...and we will have Ozzy as a totem for a long time to come as well, I think.
