Kuma’s 4th Death Day

At 5:50 pm today it is now 4 years since Kuma died. October 6 will always be the day that Kuma was cruelty killed. It was completely unnecessary. She was induced into a coma for 3 days and killed after she was sleeping for just 2 days. Her vet was coming back the next morning but Cheryl and the vet on duty the day before just couldn’t wait.

They just couldn’t wait for her vet who examined her, the vet who knew all about her and the vet who said that she would be better than before to return the next morning. No, they had to do it now. The vet on duty wanted Kuma’s space for another dog and her mother Cheryl just wanted to get it done without thinking and without knowing. Just get it done. There now that’s done and out of the way. Kuma’s life to them was worthless, not even worth waiting a day for her to recover.

No Kuma’s life to them was just a task to get done. Done and now I don’t have to think about it anymore. Kuma was old and just needed to be flushed down the toilet and forgotten. There, that’s done.

But to me Kuma was everything. Everything good in this world. Love, caring, compassion and feeling. I felt all those things with Kuma. The one’s who ordered her killed early felt nothing, felt none of those things that Kuma gave freely.

But this is the story everywhere in the world. Love, caring, compassion and feeling versus nothing, no feeling, no caring and no thought about others. There are people all around us who mean everything to someone and nothing to someone else. Old people, sick people, poor people, people who are alone, people who struggle all need someone to love, to care for them.

Kuma died today because of people who didn’t feel and didn’t care.

I care, I feel and I will always relive this day with great love for the most loving being in the world and at the same time a great painful unrequeting loss that didn’t need to happen.
