IF IT SHOULD BE

If it should be that I grow weak,
And pain should keep me from my sleep,
Then you must do what must be done,
For this last battle cannot be won.

You will be sad, I understand;
Don't let your grief then stay your hand.
For this day more than all the rest,
Your love for me must stand the test.

We've had so many happy years -
What is to come can hold no fears.
You'd not want me to suffer so;
The time has come, so let me go.

Take me where my needs they'll tend
And please stay with me until the end.
Hold me firm and speak to me
Until my eyes no longer see.

I know in time that you will see
The kindness that you did for me.
Although my tail its last has waved,
From pain and suffering I've been saved.

Please do not grieve - it must be you
Who had this painful thing to do.
We've been so close, we two, these years -
Don't let your heart hold back its tears.

Hvil i fred jenta vår, glemmer aldri ditt fløyesbrune blikk.
Født 09.10.1997- død 19.11.2012

Mandag 19 november måtte vi ta farvel med vår eldste, og kjære Foffo. Det er bare 5 uker siden vi feiret hennes 15 år`s dag. Da var hun i god form, men utrolig hvor fort ting kan snu. Er helt uvirkelig at hun nå ikke er her sammen med oss lenger. Nå er det litt over et år siden vi mistet Gina, hun var Foffo`s beste venn.
De fikk nesten 14 år sammen. Tenker nå tilbake, og ser : Radarparet, Foffo og Gina unge, friske og lykkelige der de løper fritt avgårde på grønne enger. Savnet er sårt, men takk for mange gode minner!!
Hvil i fred kjære Foffo.
