My Bella

095The day I have been dreading for almost six months has arrived. Today, I am letting you go. I will be lost without you here to support me as you have been for the last dozen years. You could always make me laugh. You could always make me smile. You always knew when I needed that gentle nudge out of whatever funk I fallen. You were powerful when necessary. And, tender when called for. Now what? The last few months have been so confusing for you because you could not understand what was happening to your body. Neither could I. The medication did not restore you to glorious majesty as I had prayed. Instead, I allowed your dignity to be taken away. I was too selfish to let you go. But, now I will and the pain is excruciating. To know that your spirit will be free to roam the universe again is my saving grace. To know that you will be free to return in another life to perhaps share with another needy soul is of great comfort to me. I hope you know you are deeply loved. I hope you know you will be deeply missed for the rest of my days.

Update: My Bella is gone. Heaven has her now!
