It is September 12th and one year ago today I Came Upon THE MOST HORRIBLE Discovery ever...I Found My Dearest Friend Milo had passed away in his sleep...I remember this day like it was yesterday. .He and I had a date..we were going to figure out how his pet cows got out of their pasture and fix the fences so it didnt happen again.. I worked only til 10 a.m and stopped over directly after work.. only to find him still sleeping upstairs in his bed...I remember standing near his bed thinking it was very odd he was not up however, he was hard of hearing and I certainly didnt want to scare him by touching him to awake him...He looked so still...I remember standing there thinking... is he breathing? I think I didnt want to believe he wasnt just sleeping. ..I quietly said to him.. you just rest..we have a lot of work to do...I will be back I had to run to town quick...but first I stopped in by the cows that were still locked in the yard..finding them hungry...with no hay...I threw them a bale and still went to town...trying not to think about why Milo hadnt fed them...ran my errands and even got us a sandwich for lunch..When I came back to Milos I entered just as before...announcing myself..expecting to see him up and in his man cave. ..nope....I remember thinking oh shit I ran up the stairs only to see him in the same position as when I left before...my heart sank...and I said really Milo???? I started talking to him...no response. .I went around to the other side of the bed and just stared at his chest...oh no! I finally worked up enough nerve to touch his hand...stone cold...my worst fear...I guess that just went to show me... if you ignore something that you actually believe to be true in your mind and your heart it will not go away or change when you return it has been a long lonely year without him...still cant believe he checked out like that....I really wish I had known he had untreated high blood pressure. .The man refused to take pills...well..at least he died happy knowing his cows were safe...and yes..I was the last one to hug and kiss my dear friend the night before. ...This just goes to show you..you should always appreciate people while they are alive...because you never know if it will be the last time you see them...
