Coco is Gone

I just returned from the vet. I have been putting off going because I knew what he would say but after finding myself with the afternoon free and not sleeping for two nights because Coco is up all night screaming in pain, I just couldn't put it off anymore.

The vet examined him and felt his belly. As soon as he touched his kidney's Coco cried in pain. There was no avoiding it, Coco was beginning to die.

I was so afraid of Kristen waking up in the morning and finding him dead and as much as I think I have prepared her, there has been so much death around here, this is really going to devastate her.

I have asked the maids to get rid of the cat box so we don't have to see it and deal with it. They easily complied knowing what has happened around here.

I will put on my happy face when I pick her up and when I get her home, I will break the news. Say a prayer for us tonight. It's going to be a hard evening.
