Goodbye Melan

Just two days ago I lost my dear dog.... Melan...
She was trying to jump over the fences, as she always did... but the leash was too short so it took her to her final resting place...

She's my only dog that I took care of from a puppy...
She almost died when she was 2 months old...
her siblings died, running out of blood because those Necator worms sucked up their blood... She was dying too...
I had her everyday on hand for medicine and food, and promised myself that I will take good care of her if she survive... and she did...

She became a healthy dog of no fear (except of me :p), full of energy and no trace of feeling any pain what so ever... This last one of course because she's a pitbull which is known as dog who understand no pain.
She had a several bloody fight with her big sister, but she didn't feel a thing... And it was just left me screaming seeing all those blood from both dogs...

She's not easy to handle sometimes, but she understood me or any other member of my family when we were sad or not in the good mood...
She seems to try to cheer everyone up every time she has the chance... even my little niece who's not yet 2 years old... Anyone would see it as frightening scene to see a small child with a big dog like her... but she won't ever harm her... it's a proven fact...
I won't cover the fact that she's quite stubborn as well.. especially when it comes to cat... -wonder if this cat vs dog will keep on going forever-
She's also quite naughty and is able to destroy many many things at home... :p
BUT... she's also afraid of the thunder... :)

She'd be 5 years old next year... A grown up at the human age...

I was supposed to take her from my parents home to my own house after the marriage, but there were several reason why we're not able to do it... One of them is that I was not in a good shape to handle an energetic pitbull during my first trimester...
I believe that everything happens for a reason.... even this incident...
I believe that there was reason why she survived the Necators and was there by my side for almost 5 years...
I believe that her presence in my family has given each one of us a memory to remember... a good one... and that we also learn a lot from it...
I believe that it's her time to leave us now...

Farewell Melan... Be in peace....
You know I'll love you always...
And I shouldn't shed a tears again now because I did that on the day you died... endlessly...
I know that you can understand why I'm not supposed to be sad anymore
I'll tell him the story about you when he's born later... I'm pretty sure he'll love you as much as I do...
