Time has come to say our Goodbye .....

There comes a time when we have to shed a tear and say our last goodbye .



That day is on it’s way for my family and I .

Meka , our black lab will have her last breathe come the end of this month , November 2010 . We hate to say goodbye to her so soon . Yet we know to keep her with us , is not the right thing to do .

When your animal is sick , you know deep down the right thing is to let go . Our emotions tell us different . Most of which confuse us to racking our brain as to the logic of what is right and what our heart feels at the moment .

I know that Meka will be terribly missed by so many people and most of all , her closest family !



She helped me for 90 % of her life . Making sure I wasn’t going to lye alone , feel scared or even gasp at the thought of having to endure such an emotional life change that would take control of mind , body and soul …. I wasn’t alone .

Today is a very different story …..

No matter how much money we spent to find the solutions to her medical issues . We never got ahead . Nothing ever worked for her , let alone being doped up , Meka was slowly becoming not herself by no means .

Sometimes the simplest conditions can effect our health , those of which take us down and we never get back up . This seems to be Meka’s issue . We would love to spend the thousands it would cost to make her life more enjoyable … yet money simply doesn’t grow on trees , yet if it did , we would all have the things in life we want to have .

With the allergies being a given …. Lumps have formed , not 1 , or 2 , but 3 . I know that it could be many possibilities .

Yet , I know what suffering is all about …. Meka may not have the same emotional connection to this situation we find ourselves in , yet I know that we must say our goodbye's earlier than planned .

We love her more than words can ever express .

Today I hold my head up high , knowing that the right thing is to let go of those you love most . Holding onto the memories , for a lifetime , cry for the moment and laugh forever .

Our hearts will fill with sorrow , but our minds will remember . You brought hope , faith , goals , and most important love . You showed us how to care , grow and live .




Meka you will be remembered , never forgotten . Your heart lives within us all . We will promise to hold onto you forever my little girl , 4 legs and fur !
