I just got offline and my step dad called, and told me to call him back. I could tell something was wrong by his voice. When he was about to hang up on the message, he said that Blacky may need to be put to sleep.


I have not called back yet because I need prayers ASAP! I have not seen Blacky in so long and to think he's going to pass without me having a chance to say goodbye to him really makes me upset. I need to try to fly down there to say goodbye, I need to ask if they can send me down there. I need to be with him because he dies! I have had him forever. I rescued him as a tiny baby with the rest of his litter on Easter day when I was in the 5th grade. He was the first one I spotted and the one we ended up keeping. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH!

He's an old guy, but I was not prepared to here this yet, not without me saying goodbye first. Please pray I can make it to California. I don't know what Baby and Ickeris are going to do. Ickeris has been with Blacky since she was a kitten. Blacky has a thyroid disorder and is on meds. I need to go call Denny. Please say prayers for my Blacky boy, it would mean so much to me. I am crying so bad right now. I am going to sound like a fool on the phone while I am trying to talk. Life isn't fair.
