Last night I lost my year and a half long battle with cancer and took my last breath at 7:33pm as I crossed the Rainbow Bridge and got my Angel Wings... leaving behind my dad and two younger brothers Simba and Chewbacca.

Dad is beyond devastated and heartbroken by my sudden "turn" with our journey fighting the Multiple Myeloma cancer that I was diagnosed with in November 2024... and he tried his very best and did all that he could to give us more time together. I was doing really good for a long time... but in the end, the cancer was just too much for me.

I can only hope that all of the many pictures and videos that he took of me during my life will give dad comfort as he and my brothers Simba and Chewbacca try to move on without me in their lives. I have joined my older brother Budster in Heaven... he has waited 5 years for this reunion. So I will be stalking birds and chasing butterflies with him from now on.

I'm thinking that if I stare at dad long enough... I might just get his attention so that he'll pet me. 😻😸

We're having fun relaxing this morning while watching dad work. 😻

It's my turn today to "help" dad work. 😻

I'm "helping" dad work today. 😻

I'm spending some quality time relaxing with Dad on the couch. 😻

I'm 5 years old today!!! 😻

I always see Dad standing on this in the morning so I thought I would give it a try! 😻
