and Comet had a wonderful life together and the memories of that can never be

Comet to assist you as you move on to your transitioning to a new dog guide.

to all. Comet who has been my loving dog guide for almost nine
years passed away this Sunday the 26<SUP>th</SUP>. She
unexpectedly became very ill on Saturday the 25<SUP>th</SUP>. I
took her to the K-State Veterinary Clinic very next day hoping that
something could be done to make her comfortable and take a step toward
her recovery. However, sadly I found out that there was no option
for her complete recovery. The fluid built up in her chest around
her lung. It was matter of time the fluid would enter in to her
lung and suffocate her eventually. I could not let that happen to
inflict further suffering on my lovely Comet. I had to make the
hardest decision I have ever made in my life so far on that Sunday
evening. I stayed with her till the very end. She went
peacefully a little before 8:00PM on Sunday evening. I greatly
appreciate to you-all for your emotional and material support for Comet
and myself. She will be (I am most certain) remembered by every
one of you. I miss her very much and will continue to miss
her. At the same time I recognize the importance of celebrating
her life.<O:P></O:P></SPAN></P>
