Marley and Me

It was winter again and John was worried how Marley was going to make it through the winter with all the ice and snow. For Christmas they decided to take the kids to disney land. They left Marley at the vets where they kept him in intensive care. When Jenny picked Marley up he was very tired, out of sorts and his hips were even weaker than before. After he was home for half and hour janny called and said she could not get him to come back inside and that his stomach was swolle,. John knew this was not good, so he rushed home and took him to the vet. The vet confirmed his fear that marleys stomach had flipped again. she tried verything she could but nothing was working. John called jenny and told her the news and then told the vet it was his time. He asked if he could have some time alone with marley and after a long time the vet came in and put him to sleep.
John woke up early the next morning and went outside and started digging his grave. later the whole family cam out and said their goodbyes to him and then john burried him. Everyone was extremely sad and tried not to talk about his death because it only made them miss him more. John was very lonely, he had just lost his best friend. he decided to write a column about the loss of Marley and how even though he was a horrible dog he was mans best friend and had showed him important lessons in life and was there for them every step of the way when they were building their life together.
The next day john checked his mail and found tons of letters from other dog owners saying they were sorry for his loss and aslo saying that marley was not the worst dog in the world theirs was. They told stories of what their dogs had done and john began to believe that maybe marley wasnt the worst dog after all. all of these letters really helped john get through marleys death. they were even thinking about getting another dog that looked and sounded just like marley.

Marley was a big part of their lives and they were lost without him. They realized that he was what they always talked about and what made them happy. When he was gone their family was not complete thats why they decided to get another dog just like marley.
