Guardian Angel

A weepy day. A day of sadness, relief and suffering. My dog Ray-Ray died or we had to put her to sleep. I've dreaded this day for years and then for it to come true was heart breaking. My pal had died , the pal that was always there for me; protected me and knew when things were wrong (when I was unhappy about life she was there to keep me company). She was one of the best dogs. My friend's mom said that people say that the first dog is the best dog. Ray Ray was my first dog, I've known her all my life so far and I always thought she would constantly be there for me. I used to call her my sister. Then comes reality. Today it smacked me in the face just like a bug hitting a wind shield. She was a special dog. I remember when my mom and I would take her on walks and Ray-Ray wouldn't let me be on the side of the side walk closest to the street.She was my guardian angel. Now she can be it from above. She was part of my heart, she guided me throughout this part of my life and I bet God has someone else to help me throughout life. I used to talk to Ray-Ray when I was upset because she would just listen and sometimes that's what someone needs is just for someone to listen. No talking, just listening. That's what she gave me. A friend that would listen.Not only did I learn that these things are going to happen but that life goes on. it's ironic because my brother, Jeremy, and I were talking about how we thought she was goin to die soon. How sad. My mom told me this morning that Ray-Ray threw-up. That's when I knew it was going to be a bad day. I had this gut feeling that we were going to put her to sleep today. Ray-Ray couldn't move out of her spot that she was in. My mom and I cried all the way to school. I went to school for an hour and then that was it. We had to put her to sleep. She was suffering. Apparently, she had something similar to a stroke. Her eyes twitched and liquid came out of her left ear. I don't think that I will ever forget this day. The day my life changed. I love you Ray-Ray and will never-ever forget my guardian angel sent from heaven.

I Love You and Miss You
Forever and Always,
