Scooter

by Michelle Painter.........................................

Scooter came to us June 8,1996 he weighed no more than 8 ounces he was the baby of the litter. He had some problems growing up he had a liver surgery that we was so sure would take him away, but he was a trooper he hung on and beat the odds. Scooter was the first born son to our family as we did not think we could have kids of our own, then one day we found out we was having Scoot a litle brother Scoot did not like that very much but he took to Jason, and Jason loved him.

Scooter had the most amazing life and we will remember those times as the choice we had to make was the most difficult and horrifing choice you could imagine making. I am still asking myself why did I have to make it? Was it right? How can I forgive the person I see in the mirror? Scoot was put to rest May 14,2010 at 530 pm he took his last breath very shortly after then his little heart just stopped as well as mine....My heart is shatterd and I am not sure it will ever feel better.

I know he did not suffer and he is not in pain any more, but how do I tell my 7 year old son his Big brother is gone? I packed his things up last night after I got back home folding his little clothes knowing that would be the last time I would fold them, washed his beds and blankets thinking what kind of Mother would do that to her child? Will this ever go away the guilt I feel for making a choice for him? I hate myself for what I did.....

Scoot I am so sorry and I ask as you sit there on that Bridge look for Mommy and Daddy as we will come see you and bring you some pepperoni's please forgive me Scoot. We love you and our lives will never be the same without you and your annoying bark....

Wait for us we will come get you....I promise!

I have cried so many tears and I will continue to cry more I am sure this pain is hard and my heart just hurts...I am so sorry please GOD forgive me, and help us get through this, I know if you bring me to it, you will bring me through it, I am begging you don't leave my side now I need your help...

Rest in Peace Scooter
Love you forever Mommy, Daddy, Jason , Cooper and Emma Painter
