Say Goodbye to Someone I Love

Wednesday, 1 October 2025 — we lost our family dog, my brother's dog, Hades.

He was a true member of our family. He was like a brother, a child, a light, and a joy in our lives. We know we were not perfect guardians. Like most humans, we were sometimes selfish—but we tried, and we are still trying. I believe, and I hope, that we gave him happiness and a good life.

Tears and sadness cannot bring back those who have departed, but they are necessary for us who remain behind.

We will always remember you, Hades, and carry you in our hearts. Thank you for everything you gave us.
