First off is the prompt challenge to "Scrap about one of your greatest current challenges or one from the past". This took quite a lot of thought especially as I didn't want to get too personal on a public forum but did want to capture the essence of the challenge and also find appropriate photographs for my story. Eventually I settled on telling the story of the last set of photographs I took of our family cat.
Journaling reads ...
These are the second to last photographs we have of
Sox. At twenty-one and a half years of
age she did little more than sleep on the lounge or bed all day and we had to
entice her to eat enough - often taking turns to sit and encourage her at meal
times. We knew in our hearts her time
was near. Only weeks after these
pictures were taken she deteriorated rapid over two days and passed peacefully
in my arms one sunny June morning in 2006.
She was a wonderful addition to our family and we still miss her.
