Sorry to hear about Sparkos, it's been a little over a year since my wife and I held our beloved Nike as he passed at the vet's office. He was almost fifteen and in a bad way at the end, just glad we were there for his passing.
Grief is literally nothing if not lived/passed through. How true , how despicable the AV , to tempt one to indulge by cheating the memory of a loved one , that numbing buzz is more desirable than the loved one? I'd call it a hateful thing , but IT doesn't even deserve that type of recognition, impotent gawdawful pathetic thing that.
Long Live Sparkos!
