Cheers to Keiko

My boy is approaching the end of his journey, and I've had to make an appointment to walk him over the rainbow bridge.

Writing this is helping with the acceptance, and knowing that I'm making the best decision I can for him.

Here is one of my favorite pictures among the thousands I have

Its the hardest thing and I hate it but I do wish someone could do it for me when the time comes. I watched my mom and dad live horribly before death.

That's Keikō (long vowel), which is different from Keiko. This guy also almost definitely didn't exist, but that's beside the point.
