Grim is no more.


I've been working on what to type to tell you all this, most of you know why my user name is 'andi and grim' from the old days before I had a mini-site, Grim was my first pet guinea pig and I was really close to him and he was always there for me in his cage when I was sad.
He had been ill for a few days. I think it might have been the same cancer my dad has, with my dad's cancer he had fluid come out his backside, the fluid my dad loses is the same as the fluid Grim was losing, I first noticed something wrong with Grim when he wasn't eating or drinking and then five days before he died, three days before he died he stopped responding to sight, sound and touch. I don't think anything could have been done to help him and he died.
I found him slumped in his cage the same as he was before, sat facing the corner. He wasn't cold but he wasn't warm either, he was freshly dead. Grim died on the 15th of December sometime around 11pm. I was tired and went to bed at 10pm and woke through a dream where Grim was talking to me, thanking me for all I did for him. I haven't told anyone what the dream was about, I'm hoping to write that up at some point to type it up as a story because it was so hard to describe, I got out of bed and went to his cage finding him slumped, I belive he really did speak to me in my dream. He said I was a good owner and that he wanted me to take care of his daughters, so Ryan if your reading this can I buy Truffel back? Grim was young, he was about a year and a half old, born on the 1st of June 2007. He has 3 daughters, Princess of Darkness, Nameless Pig, and Truffel who was origanly called Spawn. Grim leaves behind alot in this world, he was my favourite pig and left behind more than Ray did. I won't be changing my user name, it can stay as a memory of Grim, some of the creations were inspired by him and silly things he did. He will be rememberd as the guinea pig who could undo a zip and open a cage, he taught me to love life and respcet animals. I learnt so much from him, I miss him so much but I'm trying to get through this. Grim's death made me realise how special life is.

I'm posting this as my last goodbye, so long and good night Grim. Your spirt lives on and you live on in my heart and mind, keeping me safe and watching over me.

I feel with you and giving you a bear hug!! Last year died a very good and very close friend by lung cancer with only 38 years!! He was VERY inteligent. I still don't understand this! In the beginning of this year our cat died with 4 years (we had her just for 9 weeks) on an evil cat sickness and cancer, it was VERY sad to see her all day how bad she is feeling and you WANT make just anything, but help and can not... \:\( Cancer is the most worst disease, the world has at the moment (what I think). I hope, they will find finally a really helpful medicin, what humans & animals would help to be 100% fit, even if they have cancer since already a longer time. I know, It MUST be possible!!! Questions is only, how long will it STILL take, if they find something?? I wish YOU and all YOURS, too a very HEALTHY New Year!! \:\)

Aw...I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. Pets are special and look to us for love and care. You gave Grim all of that and more. I believe this is why he was able to reach out to you in a dream. I would cherish that memory because it is indeed fortunate to have. I sincerely hope you can find the peace within yourself soon. ~ Marilyn

I'm so sorry about your loss :-( That's good he got to tell you goodbye in your dream.

I am sorry to hear you have lost another pig. \:\( I have dreamt about all the pets I have lost too. My dogs are usually always in my dreams, even in the crazy ones they seem to pop up in the background. Thats the great thing about dreams we can be with whoever we want. I dream a lot about my Grandad too. That's the nice thing about The Sims, I have created all my dogs in the game, sometimes it makes me cry to see them, sometimes it makes me laugh. Lifes not fair sometimes. Thinking about you.x
