I first saw your sweet face at the S.P.C.A..
How could you have ended up there? How could someone
not have wanted you?
You were sick even then…heartworms. We made it through that and we
fell in love. You have been my very best friend just the sight of your
sweet fuzzy face brought me as much happiness as I’ve ever known.
Just knowing how much you needed me not just anyone but me…
and I needed you the same that bonded us all the more.
I miss rubbing your little belly on the pillow we shared each night and
feeling your nose bump the back of my heels as I walked
wanting me to pick you up.
But cancer has taken you from me. It happened so fast. First we had the
tumors removed from your stomach. They were back in a month
so we tried radiation. I’m so sorry it was so painful for you.
But alas the tumors returned to your neck so we removed it again.
Again it returned the doctors said chemo would give you a short while,
but no I wouldn’t let you endure any more pain.
You didn’t deserve this ,Tipper.
I guess God missed you and wanted you back.
I will never love anything like I loved you.
You were so special to me. And all who knew you.
You will always be my hero.
All my love,
your Mommy
