My sweet sweet Ed

Today, is the day after that we said goodbye to our sweet Ed. Ed (Edison) who was named after my father's middle name, was a mini schnauzer that would have been 16 on July 8th. I got him when he was 6 weeks old, from my BFF Lisa who had his father Max and Lisa's mom has his mom Miss Molly.

He has been through thick and thin with me, the good and the bad. He was with me during one of darkest period of my life with my ex. I was so thankful that he got to see me in one of the best times of my life with my family that I have came to love with Mike and his kids.

When I couldn't have children and had to have a hysterectomy, our bond got even stronger. He was there with the most unconditional love at all times.

When he had a bad stroke at 2:30 Monday  morning and things were not good, Mike and I knew what we had to do. He fought the good fight, he was on 6 pills a day for heart and Alzheimer's, but the time had come that to put my selfishness away and do what was best for him.  After he was gone, Dr Z said that dog had a fabulous life and we agreed. I realized that he probably had a better life than unfortunatly some children out there. 

His loveseat is empty and so is our hearts. But we know he is running with his sister Betty that we lost a year and half go.
