How Misty became my dog.

I just told how Misty came to live here and how, by looking at her eyes, I found out she was depressed. She could tell more than many people do with those eyes she had.
A few months later my grandson Tomás was diagnosed wit a very aggressive kind of cancer. After some months, and while Tomás had all sorts of treatments, they moved to a house where they could be better.
Misty went with them at first but, after much thought and in desperation, Tomás´parents decided they had to get rid of Misty as Tomás did not have any way to fight against other infections a dog might have. I told them I´d accept her as she was going to be placed on the streets.
That´s how Misty came to be mine. And although later on, after Tomás had died, mu eldest granddaughter Carolina came to ask her back, they had it only for about 2 weeks and decided she´d be better with me.
I had her for around 10 more years, until her death of old age.
She is in a dog´s heaven, I know.

She gave me more than whatever I could give me. We went together through rough times.

A dog like that is sort of meant to be there to help you and protect you also.
I know you have been through a lot of tough tiimes Margi.

I never considered her a pet. She was my friend and she knew it.

That was a lovely dog. I remember my pets at times, it's very painful when ever I remember them suffering..
