Jolie's Triumphant Exit



Today my Jolie passed away.

And believe it or not, this was an answered prayer. Jolie's condition had rapidly decreased, so much so that I had finally given in to the pressure and called the vet about possibly having her to put to sleep. I have never liked that thought. Unless she was in true pain, I couldn't imagine taking in a live, breathing dog and bringing back her remains in a box.

So today at work, after I called the Vet, I prayed that she be released from her sick body here on earth...and she was. I came home to find her forever asleep.

I couldn't help but cry and it was 3 year old Kendall who took a tissue, wiped my face, and told me it was going to be okay...she would take care of me.

My sister said it best "Faithful as always, she did as you wished."

  1. I'm so sorry for your loss...always so hard to lose a member of your family, but she knew to make it easy on u. What a perfect little doggie:)

  2. I would consider that an answered prayer, too. I'm sorry for your loss, but glad she went peacefully.
