4,882 days. 421,804,800 seconds. 7,030,080 minutes. 17,168 hours. 4,882 days. 160 months, 14 days. 13 years, 4 months, 14 days. An entire lifetime stretched out across so many moments but never, never enough. Time is cruel, fleeting, devastating. I don't have the right words for this, I don't know how to do this...I never wanted to do this....
A week ago, we rushed Machete to the emergency vet. He woke up that day happy as ever, we played soccer in his yard, we had no idea. That evening, it was clear he was not ok. And then, he was gone. I didn't know our last moments would be our last moments, I was not ready, I was never, ever going to be ready.
My absolute best, precious, smart boy; the most patient big brofur; the perfect model corg; champion soccer player; expert lake fetch fanatic; our fabulous, feisty meerkat. Machete is is my most beloved, my everything, the reason we now have a life full of corgi love. He is and forever will be the blueprint for the perfect dog. He touched so many lives, brought so much joy, and will always be my heart and soul dog. My sweet, beautiful boy, my Machete...I love you forever, I will miss you always.
