On May 26, 2005, my Blackie left me so suddenly for a better place. That night he played so much…jumping on my bed and forcing his toy into my face so that I throw it for him to catch. I gave him his favourite cookie and he was having another fun evening. Little did I know that this would be his last cookie, that this would be the last time he would jump on my bed, that this would be the last time he would look at me with his sparkling eyes, that this would be the last time that he would fetch his toy and drink water from his bowl.
He was having so much energy and my father decided to take him for a walk. How excited he got when he saw his leash in my hand and when I told him that he was going out. Jumping up and down excitedly he wouldn’t even stop for me to put on his leash. I finally managed to put it on him. Little did I know that this would be the last time I would do that…little did I know that I would never see my baby alive again…little did I know that in less than five minutes he would be dead.
A car lost control, came onto the sidewalk and hit my baby. I heard my father’s screams from a distance, getting louder as he neared the house…I did not know what had happened until he got to the house, screaming and holding my baby in his arms. We put him on the floor to call his vet and go to the hospital.
He took his last breath, blood came out of his nose and he went to heaven. My baby was so young, so innocent, so loving, so healthy, so energetic and youthful, so loyal, feeling so safe, thinking that we would always take care of him. But God had other plans for him and decided to take him so soon.
Blackie Janam rest in peace and know that you are loved and missed dearly. Not a day passes that I don’t think about you.
I love you Pesaram
