Let me tell you a story, the story of Pinginin Roberto... aka Chopo.
Once upon a time there was a little chihuahua named Pinginin Roberto. I didn't liked his name much so I started to call him Chopo. The tiny chihuahua was curious, funny and lovely and he earned the love of everyone in the family.
He got scared easily but he acted all "macho" in front of big dogs. Barking and acting like a badass pitbull. It was funny he was afraid of mosquitos but not of huge scary dogs!
He had big doggie lips and he was always making funny expressions. Always playing and doing doggie tantrums when he didn't got what he wanted.
He always had cold even tho we live at the Caribbean and its hot as hell. So most of the times he had clothes. His favorite color was red and he was the one who always chose his clothes.
His favorite hobby was sleeping. He slept like a hibernating bear! His favorite sleeping pose was with his private parts free ahahaha
He totally hated pants and who can blame him?! Pants can be uncomfortable sometimes!
For 12 years he was always there for us, giving us unconditional love. Always present in every single thing....
...being the party doggie...
....the nurse...
...the bodyguard...
... the content inspector...
... the joker...
... Santa's lil' helper...
But the most important thing... the soul of the house! A year ago he got blind and then cancer... We couldn't do anything to help him. Treatment was too expensive and on top of that the cancer was in his brain so there wasn't anything we could do for him. On September 30 he died. It was one of the most painful days in my life. It still hurts.... but I know he's not suffering anymore. His death reminded me my grandma's death, she died of cancer too. A part of me died with them. For a time all lost importance, there was (and still is) a huge hole in my heart. It is funny how pets become such an important part of our lives. Their love is so pure, unconditional and refreshing.
So I will keep taking my time to get used to not have part of my heart with me. My steemit vacations will continue. I will keep focusing in really important things, filling my heart with pretty things, feeding my head with happy thoughts and doing the changes I need in my life.
Chopo will never going to be replaced. He's unreplaceable, unforgettable, unique and deeply loved. Thanks to all the people who show their concerns about me not being around and to the people who gave me their condolences in facebook.
Farewell dear Chopo! You will always be in our hearts!
