Hello friends. I know this is way off topic, but we lost our dog to a brain tumor on Saturday. She was 14 and six months.
It's been really hard. My wife and I are devastated. (I was really hoping it would be easier for her, but it's not) I got her as a puppy and I haven't spent more time with anyone else in my life. In the over 14 years that I had her, I was only away from her three times for traveling and whatnot. Otherwise, she came everywhere with me/us. She was my most constant source of support. I got her when I was dealing with severe depression and she took me from some of my darkest days to some of my best.
She was not an easy dog. Shibas are naturally independent and strong willed, but she also developed epilepsy when she was very young. She was medicated, but getting her through her seizures was heartbreaking.
We were incredibly fortunate to find each other and I'm so grateful for the time we spent together. She wasn't my best friend... she's my little girl and always will be.
But I got up this morning and remembered it was Wednesday. And then my wife asked if Dynamite was on tonight. And we're really looking forward to it. It's the first thing we've had to lift our spirits since we lost our little Meeka. And we also agreed that last week's show getting postponed was a blessing because it gave us one more night with her.
So... I'm here y'all! Imma bring dat hype and do my best to enjoy something even if only for a few hours.
...and mah boy Sammy is gonna keep that winning streak rolling!
