For the last 6 months Max's kidneys have been failing and the week before Election Day we took him in to the vet and learned that his red cell count was 11%. Although he seemed OK, it was clear that he was slowing down. Everyone was able to say goodbye over the next few days until one night, he ran out of gas. Two nights later the girls stayed up to watch the first female President fail to win the electoral vote. What a $#!!!^ week.
Clio could tell that her brother was dying. The day before Max died, she jumped up next to him
and lay down beside him
We held a funeral celebrating Max's life and the love and joy that he brought our family
his remains were buried with pompoms, a toy mouse, some chicken, and blades of grass
The girls are going to lobby Congress to create a National Park site for Maxyboo
