Munchy, my boy, my best buddy!
Saying goodbye to you has been the most painful experience of my life,
and I doubt I will ever come across anything more difficult.
Munchy, you have no idea how much I love you!
You are my boy, and you are my best buddy!
How can I let go of you?
How can I look you in the eye and tell you that you are going to a place about which I have no idea?
So I won’t. I will tell you about the things that I hope, and I wish are going to be true. I will tell you
that you are going to a better place,
where you will be happy,
and you will be pain free,
and you will play with other pups and birdies and rabities all the time,
and you will see your brother Tiny on the other side,
and I know you will tell him how much we still love him,
and how much we miss him, everyday.
Munchy, I am saying goodbye to you, but know that some part of my heart is also going with you.
Munchy baby, know that I will never stop loving you!
And that I will never stop missing you!
Munchy, you have no idea how much I wish I could go with you,
but I can’t,
You are going to be alone on this one my boy,
and I won’t be next to you to protect you and comfort you,
and that so breaks my heart!
But don’t you worry my boy,
and don’t you be scared of anything;
you are going to a better place,
where you will be happy,
and you will be pain free.
Munchy, my boy, life without you will not be the same,
as it has not been after your brother Tiny suddenly left us.
Munchy, I don’t think I will be able to watch your pictures or videos, as they will make me feel so heartbroken.
But one thing will keep me hopeful,
that there will come my time, when I will have to cross this road as well,
and that I will see you again, on the other side!
I can’t wait for that day.
Farewell my boy!

My dearest Jaber,
I cannot begin to express how deeply sorry I am for your loss.
My heart aches with you, and though I did not spend as much time with Munchy as you did, I always felt his presence as something truly special. He was not just a dog—he was a soul with depth, a companion with a profound understanding of the world around him.
I will never forget the way he used to sit by the waterfall, gazing into the rushing water as if contemplating life itself.
It was as if he carried wisdom beyond what we often attribute to animals.
Perhaps, in his own way, he understood more about life, love, and existence than we ever could.
He was a thinker, a quiet observer, a being who connected with the world in a way that made us pause and reflect.
Losing Munchy is more than losing a pet; it is losing a friend, a confidant, a source of unconditional love and comfort.
I can only imagine the depth of your pain, and I wish I could take some of it away.
But I hope you find solace in knowing that Munchy felt your love in every moment, until his very last breath.
He knew he was cherished beyond words, and that love will never fade.
I also believe that somewhere, somehow, he is reunited with Tiny, running free and watching over you.
And one day, when the time comes, you will see them again, just as you dream.
Until then, please know that you are not alone.
I am here for you, grieving with you, honoring Munchy’s beautiful spirit with you.
His presence will always be felt, in the quiet moments, in the memories that bring both tears and smiles.
Rest in peace, Munchy. You were, and always will be, deeply loved.
With all my heart,
Amir
Amir Jan. Thanks a lot for your kind note. You’re words of compassion and understanding are much stronger than my own words of self pity. I really appreciate you and the rest of the family and friends being with us during these very difficult times, and all the love and support you have been giving us and Munchkin. I am sure he felt your presence around him and was happy about that although he did not have the strength to acknowledge that as he use to do when he was healthy. He left very calmly and peacefully, and that gives us some comfort. I am not denying that we will have difficult days in front of us, with his memories all over the house around us, but with the help of all you guys, we will get through this one as well. Thanks much.
Dear Jaber,
I am so sorry for your loss. I never met Munchy, but I can deeply understand the pain of losing such a beloved companion. He will always be in your heart. I hope you find comfort in the beautiful memories you shared. Sending you strength and hugs during this difficult time.
From the bottom of my heart,
Elnaz
Thanks a lot Elnaz jan. Yes, as you said, the pain of losing an innocent companion who has not given you anything but love during his entire life sometimes feels unbearable. Especially when you lose them to cancer while they still have several years of natural life left. But this is how life is, and there is nothing that anyone can do about it, at least at our current times. We brought two new puppies who are brother and sister, and are hopeful that they will help us cope with this loss with less pain. Thanks again for your lovely words.

“I’m so deeply sorry for your loss. Munchkin wasn’t just a dog; he was such a unique and loving soul who brought so much joy into your life. His sweetness and one-of-a-kind personality made him irreplaceable, and I hope you find comfort in the many beautiful memories you shared together. Munchkin will always hold a special place in your heart, and his love will stay with you forever. If there’s anything I can do to support you during this tough time, please don’t hesitate to let me know.”
Thanks a lot Maryam Jan. Really appreciate your kind words.
