My dear companion

[snowazalea]

Yesterday afternoon I had to say farewell to my dear companion Chevre, who has been at my side for 15 years. He was around 18. This is a photo of him when he was much healthier and carefree. My photos of him are scattered all over devices. I intend to make a photo book of him to put all those photos together, to prevent their being lost. 

I was expecting that I would have to, but I was hoping there would be some way to keep him comfortable for longer. He had splenic tumors (the cause of his suffering), stage 5 lymphoma, and canine cognitive dysfunction, so I knew the time would come soon.
