Dear Friends,

today I want to send you my last words and I want to thank all of you for your kindness and love you allowed me to experience during the last weeks of my all too short life which abruptly ended in the late afternoon of April 9, 2008.

The day before I was still enjoying my life and I still remember me playing with my best friend Khao and Doi. We had so much fun. Later that day I was not hungry and only eat a little before Thomas brought me to bed as usual. Somehow during the night something happened with me and I really felt bad. During the early morning hours when Thomas brought me out I did not walk around as usual and I certainly was not hungry. So I was only quiet and then I started to vomit.

Paporn then drove me to the hospital. But even with the medicine my health steadily deteriorated and it started to hurt me a lot. I then was admitted to the intensive care unit and they did everything to stabilize my body functions. But again there was not much improvement and things went from bad to worse. Only some hours later I got seizures and became unconscious. I was about to die and the veterinarian did everything she could to resuscitate me but after the third attempt it was clear that I had to go on my last journey.

As far as we know I had a massive acute renal failure with damage to my bladder. Most likely this is an aftereffect of my car accident which not only broke my spine but might have left some damage to my internal organs as well. I finally succumbed to this accident.

But I was not alone during my last day and hours because Paporn and Thomas were there all the way to the end. They kissed me and put a cross under my small body but even their love could not change the course I was already on. And I did not go in anger since the last weeks were beautiful and I made my experience which I came for to this world. I was loved and I had great friends.

Dear friends, please do not despair because I told you there is always hope. Do not give up to help us poor souls out there because we have no other place to go to. None of your efforts to make my life beautiful was in vain and I really wanted to stay longer. Now I am outside but I am still looking in.

Love,

Hope
