Camille


My dog Camille passed today at noon. She had become very ill and, while I was hoping to have the vet euthanize her in our home Monday, she took a turn for the worst last night and I felt waiting would simply force her to suffer over the weekend. I took her to the vet this morning and was with her through it. She was content and at peace when they put her down.

Camille was my first, or practice child. While my love for her can never compare to Kai, nor should it, I loved her deeply none the less and her loss is very hard.

I have had her cremated and will be getting her ashes back. We will be honoring her spirit and her life at our annual Yule Solstice by planting a tree with her ashes.

Camille was a good girl and an amazing friend. Both Kai and I are very sad and we miss her.
