Dear friends, momma here.
On Monday we had to say goodbye to our beloved Aida.
A little over a week prior, she was diagnosed with complete kidney failure that came out of nowhere.
Our vets tried everything to save her life, we went there every day and sat there with infusions for 3 hours at a time, but her little body kept filling up with toxins. She stopped eating and then also stopped drinking and the only thing we could do to help her was to help her go peacefully and without pain.
We tried our best to give her joyful moments between the visits to the clinic, we sat as much as we could on the grass, we went to say good bye to a good friend in her gallery and just 1 week before she still had enough energy to say hello to a fluffy friend. That was the last friend she greeted.
After we said goodbye at the vet's, on our way home, big black flags were hung from the city's great buildings and a huge black swan flew over our heads. As if the whole city was saying goodbye with us.
Today was her funeral, we got to hold her little paw & say goodbye for the last time.
Aida was the heart of our family. I always say that when we saw each other in the shelter, she grabbed my heart in her paws and didn't let go since. She loved us so much and gave her whole trust in us from the first moment, and we were the only people she ever did trust. And we are so grateful for that. We will love and miss her forever, she is our forever baby and it's still unbelievable to think that she is gone.
