Siwsan

And just like that, she is gone [View all]

I went up to brush my teeth and came back to find the beautiful angel has crossed the rainbow bridge.

So strange. She was so active one minute, and gone the next. So her mom did know something was wrong. Something may have been wrong with the whole litter.

It's raining out so I can't bury her with her sibling until tomorrow. I have a therapy session tomorrow morning.

Time for me to cry.

I am crushed beyond words.
