The Last Moment of Benethon

Life's so fragile. I woke up in the morning, thinking what am I going to do today. Is Ben going to remember me again? or he's just angry that I've not been with him since we gave him away? His eyes told me that he don't want to speak to anyone. I can sense he feel pain and tired, ignore everything else in the world.

Some people said, dogs are similar to their owner's personality. I can see some part of me in him. Yet, I really missed him a lot. I was by his side the whole morning, just to be with him before we let him go. He was 10 years old. Doctor had nothing further to treat him as his kidney is lost. We had to inject the solution to end his suffering.

I think at that moment, he knew his time has come. Perhaps he just refuse to tell us and leave the world silently. At the moment the doctor delivered the solution to his blood stream, I cried next to him. Touch him for the very last moment just like I've touched him the 1st time I had him as a puppy. No words can say further but goodbye my friend. You've been there for me all the time even when I was down. I often tried my best to keep my promise and be by your side until I left for Australia. Memories of you show me what long-lasting friendship was. You're like my son and my buddy at the same time. At times I was strict yet I just want to protect you from your curiosity of food. Goodbye my friend, I hope to see you in the next part of life.
