I Remember....

About six years ago, she stayed home from school because she was sick. Not only was she sick but also her life long friend too. Unfortunately, her friend's illness was long term. This was extremely heartbreaking for her because her friend was like her other half. They were like peanut butter and jelly, peas and carrots; they just messed well together. Her friend was suffering from cancer of the mouth. It was very hard for her to accept this and hard for her to watch as her best friend slowly died. The worst experience she had was one day she came home from school,saw blood leading toward the bathroom. As she followed the trail into the bathroom she saw her friend leaning the tumor on the cold toilet to relieve the pain. It was the most horrifying event that anyone could have seen. It scared her to death from knowing that at any moment she could wake up and her best friend be gone. It did happen that one day. Like I said before, she stayed home from school because she was sick. Her dad put the collar and leash on her and said he was "Just taking her to get checked out and see what the doctors could do to help her." She got this funny feeling in her stomach that something drastic was about to happen but she ignored it. A few hours later, her father returned home by himself. They had to put her to sleep he said. She was suffering way too much for her to go on. In a way it was the best thing. She will never forget the memories they shared of sledding in the snow, playing in the playhouse, and being her best friend.

R.I.P. Lucky.
You were not only a wonderful dog
but also my best friend<3
