Good By Candy

[Chicklette]

Good By Candy. Yesterday was really hard. I held her the whole time in my arms. They injected her and gave me a blanket to hold her in and she was sleepy. I held her tight and told her I loved her and would never forget her. They gave us our privacy and came in checking to see if she was still with us. Then after a while she was not with us anymore and she went peacefully. I cried so hard. It is so tough to put an animal to sleep. It would be easier if you were not there but I want my animals to be with me until the very end and I want to be the last one they see and know mommy is there. My mom went with me for support, it was very hard on her too. She has known Candy for 8 years. When I got home I just layed on my bed and watched my fish. My whole body felt like it was hit by a bus. But she is gone in peace now and I told her to say hello to my other baby chinchilla Peeps up there. But I know in my heart I did the right thing, that chin was all bone. It’s been a long time coming. I will miss her with all my heart, I loved that blob to peaces. Yes, she was a blob, lol. But that was Candy.

Thanks a lot guys. She knows you are all thinking of her. Thanks for all the compassion, I know you know what Im going threw. Some people just think it’s a rodent but that was my baby. They don’t understand that. It breaks my heart but in time the happy memories will come and it won’t hurt so much.
