Just wanted to let you all know we lost Dharma tonight. She woke up this morning and seemed a bit "off" all day long. She died tonight in our arms. It happened so suddenly.
I can't believe our precious little girl is gone.

She was everything in the world to us. Her bright eyes and beautiful personality brought us so much joy and happiness.

I can't imagine life without her. Its breaking our hearts to let her go.

Rest peacefully, our gentle dragon. We will always miss you.

Its going to be hard to get past this and I don't think Thanksgiving will ever be the same.
She was the "Thanksgiving Spokes Dragon" that patroled the couch, inspecting everyone's plates for noms that dragons might like. If you sat on her couch, she would come over to see what you had, and if you didn't offer her some type of goodies, she would climb onto your shoulder to inspect your pockets and plate for something she might like.
Let me tell ya, she l-o-v-e-d pumpkin pie! :D

She was also notorious for snagging Oreo cookies and cheesecake and belly flopping into fresh bowls of Lo Mein.

Yeah, I don't think we're going to be "okay" for quite some time, and when we are, it won't be the same.
I really, really miss this little gal.

Thank you, Tony.
Even with all of the other animals we have and love, she was the center of our universe. She had such a unique personalty, we all just adored her.

Thank you, everyone.
I just got home to find my youngest son, Jake (age 19) sitting outside in tears. He was holding her and watched her take her last breath. He's been on an emotional roller coaster all day.
Who would have ever imagined a little dragon could have such an impact on our family. We were so blessed to have her for all the years we did.

Very sorry for your loss, we lost our little guy a couple years ago it gets easier but you never forget, remember all the beautiful times you had with her and cherish those. Amazing how much personality these guys have and you can never find 2 the same they are each unique and special in different ways , she was gorgeous. I hope you find your way to cope and be able to smile again when you think of her. my heart goes out to you.

Thank you for the kind words of encouragement, Sandi. I appreciate it more than you know. She did have such a unique and amazing personality. She was my good friend, my scaley little daughter and most of the time, my co-pilot. She would sit on her little blanket on the dashboard of my van and keep me company on the long hauls.
In trying to make the mood a little lighter, the kids have recommended getting Rocko (our big male savannah monitor) use to riding on the dashboard.
If thats the case, I think I'm definitely gonna need a bigger blanket (with no-skid sewed in). :inquisitive:
