Scarlett, here with me always
Tonight, July 13th, 2005 at 10:25pm, my most cherished companion, Scarlett went to sleep for the last time.
Somehow in the past couple of days, she was poisoned from drinking anti-freeze, transmission fluid, or the like.
I spent every minute these last two days spending all the time I could with her. Petting her and hugging her as much as I could, and telling her that she meant so much to me. I watched as she died in front of me so slowly. It kills me inside to think of how bad she had to of been hurting. She knew me better than any other animal could, hell most people don't care about me as much as that little dog did. She understood me, and she understood what I was saying. This morning she was so bad off, I couldn't imagine that she could make it an hour after I had to leave for work. But I asked her to just hold on........hold on for me until I got back so I could be there for her.......And you know what she did? She kept on going all day, and when I got home, she came right to me and laid down. She needed me as much as I did her. Even tonight, when she was in so much pain and slipping in and out of consciousness, she knew when I left the room and would try to force herself up to follow me.
She was hurting so much.........but we called the vet and he came and put her to sleep. She's sleeping peacefully now, playing with all of our loving animals that have passed on.
I love you Scarlett, you'll always be with me.
