Farewell
I had to have Hillary put to sleep yesterday at another clinic. She was 5 1/2, and was my companion during the last few very difficult years of my life. She developed dental disease during the last months and despite a surgery, was unable to recover. I spent the last day with her cuddled up in my lap, watching TV together. When she was sedated, she fell asleep in my arms. I don't know if such a small animal can ever know how important she was to me, but I hope she knows, and I hope she's back with her mate in piggy heaven.
