Experiencing the truth

Eight long years was a journey. Since moving to the place that my family that is currently staying, pets has been part of our family.

Money, the golden retrieval, is among the largest and the most adorable. It was because of his characters, his gets the most attention among the three dogs that that stay with us the longest until two days ago.

Gin was busy preparing her semester 4 exam. Money was with at her side most of the time when Gin study by the side garden. It was until finishes her exam on Friday. On Saturday, Gin woke early to prepare to send Money to the vets to check out on the growing lump appeared right under the left side of his armpit.

I was attending a seminar with Caroll to prepare ourselves for 2014, Gin texted us that Money "have another 2 months".  I just kept to myself so not to distract Caroll.

It was until the evening, when Gin, Siean and Han were having dinner with us, she share with us that the two X-rays done show that the tumor in Money has spread to most part of his body. No medication or further treatment can be provided as it was already at the final stage of spread of the cancerous cells.

Next day, we decided to send Money for a proper grooming first time of his life. He was happy, he posed quite a bit for Gin to grap some candid shots until at the stage when he was blowing dry by the professional Japan trained groomer. He started to appear tired.
