To our beloved Mýrdal community:
Bruno, the lagunero doxie, my beloved dachshund, my furbaby who many of you knew about and met since the very beginning of the label, got his wings on May 31st at age 14, he crossed the bridge at 12:40 PM; he did it in my arms, I hope he did it peacefully. He was ok a week before but on Friday 23th he started to act strange, I rushed him to ER and he was back in home few hours later; a checkup was scheduled the day after, but he got worse so he was hospitalized on Saturday. I spent the whole week with him, visiting him for hours at the hospital, even having a snooze with him daily; I celebrated my birthday on Monday 25th next to him in the hospital. Several studies were conducted and he seemed to be ok, well, for the most part. So he was discharged on May 30th at night, and I was able to take him home. I gave him his meds and checked on him for hypoglycemia signs, because he had it for the entire week -a checkup was scheduled in seven days- and he went to sleep, then he woke up and we had a little stroll, he peed a bit and we were back to bed. He was peacefully sleeping. Sunday 31st in the morning he also moved across his bed several times to have a good and comfy snooze, then at 12:35 PM he woke up and started to walk wobbly and funny, I knew he needed a rush of sugar, so I gave it to him but it was not enough, his beautiful tiny head began to hang off, I checked his pulse, he was still alive when I rushed out to the vet but in less than five minutes my baby boy was gone.
I'm still absolutely devasted, I don't know what to do or where to go. My heart is shattered, my will is gone, I feel so freaking lost without him. I just wanted you to know he's no more with me. I do really appreciate your love and support through these years. But I'm truly lost. But I must keep on my tracks since we were back on work just three months ago.
Please, keep your furbabies tight tonite and say a prayer for my beloved Bruno, el perro lagunero. El este perrito, el ser más hermoso que ha existido en el universo.
He is magical, he is eternal. I know it true because he told me.
I miss you so much, Brunis. I need you by my side. Please, don't leave me alone. I'm sorry we didn't move back to Torreón, baby.

Te fuiste un día de sol. El sol que tanto te gustaba. El sol del desierto donde naciste. El sol del mar.
