Dear Buddy,
You were in my life for a reason. You gave the unconditional love to everyone you came in contact with, but especially me. How I was blessed to have you as my friend and baby I will never know, but for sure the pleasure was all mine. I thank God that you were here and that I could love you and take care of you as I did. The only thing I hated was the day I had to make that terrible decision to have you put down. The days had been number from six months to a year that we were to have together. We fought the Mitral Valve disease that you had with all we could, but knowing that the inevitable could not be stopped was tearing my heart to pieces. There were several times that I was frightened that you were going to leave me when you’d have an attack, but I’d take you to the vet and you’d be back home
with me that afternoon.
I just wanted to say Buddy, that you gave it your best and I know you did not want to leave us so soon, but the day you started to swell so bad and you looked at me as if to say, Ma I’m so uncomfortable and the pain is getting worse no matter what we try to do and I think it’s time for me to say goodbye, but I’ll never be gone as long as you keep me in your heart. I sit here with a heavy heart and tears in my eye’s just about every night, but I look up at your picture and know that God has you in his arms now. You will NEVER EVER BE FORGOTTEN.
With All Our Love,
| Buddy |
