Harry, one of my 12-year old son's beloved gerbils died after a very brief illness ... cause unknown. Harry was about three years old. There were some tears, but Ian has been assured that Harry has joined his gerbil brothers wherever gerbils go when they leave this plane of existence.
It's been a slow post week.

As an atheist, you believe you have NO destination post-mortem.
ReplyDeleteEven gerbils get better...
Atheism doesn't necessarily mean that there is nothing post-mortem, Daddio. Get out more often.
ReplyDeleteTim-
Give my condolences to your son. Just don't let the cat or dog near the body, else it could get really traumatic.
Not true, daddio. I just don't get it all confused with religious mumbo jumbo.
ReplyDeleteHe's already frozen in the freezer. We tried to save Harry the night before. Gave him new bedding, fed him and placed water closer.
ReplyDeleteIt was pretty touching. Ian picked Harry up ever so gently, petted him and gave him a kiss. It was just his time; he died overnight in Ian's room.
Sorry about Harry, by the way.
ReplyDeleteSo what IS your destination, insofar as you will not clutter it up with mumbojumbo?
I'll pass it on to Ian. He was sad as any 12-year old is wont to be.
ReplyDeleteI don't know where I'll go, that's the fun of it. I hope another planet.
I just don't care to muddle the idea with lots of guessing ... too much to do here.
