Farewell to a Friend
Farewell to an exceptional friend
This morning, February 18, 2003, at our house you left us quietly and peacefully, surrounded by all of us who were caressing and kissing you farewell. We have loved you until the end. What a pain for us, but for you it must have been a relief, finally no more suffering. The strains of age that had spared you so long had suddenly caught up with you…On Christmas Eve we had started your treatment, but in vain, you had arrived at the end of your way. You would have been celebrating your 13th birthday on March 29, 2003.
