Alice was only 8 years old when she lost her fight to cancer (the human equivalent of around 45 years old), but her short life really impacted mine♥️
I was never much of an animal lover, but Alice changed that completely. Like me, she is a mom, and I think there’s this special bond we share because of that.
My favourite memory of her is when I was doing my makeup, she would sit RIGHT next to me, with her nose touching my cheek. She gave me no personal space at all😂♥️ That is just how loving and affectionate she was!
@deejayatl started taking care of her mid-August, little did we know, she was already sick then. She drastically deteriorated in 4 months, and it was painful to see the life drain out of her. Everyday she was dying.
I couldn’t stop crying the past few days knowing her death was imminent and there was nothing we can do. It was so hard to constantly dread, to wonder if she’s still there when I wake up in the morning, and to wonder if she’s in pain.
The signs that she’s not here with us anymore like the empty spot on the sofa where she liked to lay, or her bag of unfinished treats do get to me. I really do miss her. Nonetheless, after everything, I am strangely at peace now that she’s at peace.
Even though Alice’s life was hard, I find comfort in knowing that she also had lots of happy moments. She was a street dog for many years, but at least she had freedom and was on the streets with her family/pack. When the shelter took her in, the other dogs kept fighting her, but she had also met lots of wonderful humans there that cares about her. However, most of all, in her final moments, she was surrounded by those that loved her.
Fly high, my angel 👼🏻 we all love you♥️
