Toti S. Salgado June 20, 2009

Thanks to all!

The cute puppy in this photo is Oprah also known as "Peachie", renamed by her new owner Cissie.

A text message shocked me last June 9, 2009, informing that Peachie was in a hospital, fighting for her life...and at 2:30AM the following day, she died. It was so sudden and the cause is not definite. I was so depressed that very moment and I don’t know what to say. Am I the one who pushed her to death? I feel like I pulled the guillotine to execute someone who’s very special to me. Could she still be alive if I waited a few more days before I let her go to her new home? But definitely, Cissie was the right person for she showered her with all her love in 3 weeks of friendship, and did everything she could to save her.

To Peachie, I'm so sorry that you died that young, but I know as what Cissie has hoped, you’re back to being the playful and healthy puppy you were, now in heaven. I’m happy I’ve known you and care for you, for I felt your love in every lick on my face and wag of tail every time you see me. Thank you Oprah!
