Good-Bye my dear, sweet, Skittles!

This year has not been a very good pet year for our family. Our sparrows, Cater and Lily died (a week apart from each other), then that weekend our black lab Meko, that we had for almost 11 years had to be put to sleep, and then worse of all my dear, sweet, Skittles had to be put to sleep.
I had decided to go natural route with her and her tumor, but it didn't work. Her tumor just kept getting worse and worse, bigger and bigger. It got so bad that she started to squeak ever time I would pick her up. Daddy told me that it could pop if I didn't make a decision. So I prayed and made a decision. The next day Mama brought me down to get her put to sleep.
We asked about getting it removed, but the lady helping us said that her daughter had done that with hers and it came back after 6 months with a vengeance. Plus it cost a couple hundred dollars. Good-bye my dear, sweet, Skittles! I love you lots.
After we had to put Skittles to sleep a made a video in memory of her. It took me a while to gather the pictures and put it to music, but I did it.
The Life Of Skittles

Unfortunately I didn't have much pictures of her without a tumor, but I thought the ones that I had good enough.
