Hi everyone! It’s with a heavy heart and tears in my eyes that I’m writing this post. We had to send my old man Chico to the Rainbow Bridge yesterday. I knew he had terminal cancer, I knew he only had about 3 months to live starting 3 months ago, so I knew it was coming but it’s still so hard. For the last 12 years we were best buddies, inseparable, he always being my shadow. I know he’s better off, pain free, running and playing with his big sister Pepper at the bridge waiting there for me. RIP Chico ♥♥

So this polish, Meet Me Over the Rainbow Bridge, from Colors by Llarowe was perfect for today. It’s a silvery blurple/lilac holo with pink shimmer. I used 2 coats plus topcoat. Unfortunately we didn’t have any sun today.

Here is compilation video of photos throughout Chicos’ life. Starting when he was just a baby, 3 months old, up until last Halloween 2018.
Rainbow Bridge
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together….

Oh Paula, I’m so very sorry to hear about Chico’s passing. 😢 I wish I could have met him, he always looked like such an amazing little guy. We also had to say goodbye on April 25 to my little boy SP who I told you about… It’s the worst feeling ever. My deepest condolences to you and your husband and everyone who knew and loved Chico. Big hugs!!! 😢❤️

Oh Paula, I’m very sorry about Chico. Losing someone you love is so hard. Cancer is awful and at least Chico doesn’t have to deal with that anymore. Hugs.
