Champ Alexander Gomez

2011 - 2022

My sweet angel baby, Alex. I love you so much and will forever miss playing with your beautiful curls and kissing your nose. You were not only my best friend but my savior. You represented your name so well and were a Champion until the very end. I learned to love (other than a human, especially since you were my first “pet”, I don’t think I ever regarded you as a pet because you weren’t a pet but family), to care (with your diabetes, ups and downs with health and lastly, your epilepsy) and to lose a little living creature—the biggest loss I’ve ever experienced…the type of loss others don’t understand. For almost 11 years, I woke up and went to sleep with you by my side, I spent the whole pandemic by your side working from home 90% of the time, I spent 7am and 7pms everyday administering insulin, going on walks (extra walks because your water intake would increase at times), you slept in bed with me, since dog beds weren’t your thing lol and when my siblings began to have children, we all still knew who the first and only baby was… it was and will forever be you! I miss you dearly my little baby and I know you would have never left my side, if it were up to you. You are much more now, you are magic! You are the universe and the stars! I know you are with me in spirit. Run, play, sunbathe, eat lots of bacon, meanwhile mommy makes it home to you. I love you, my Champy! We all feel your presence and keep finding little pieces of your hair. Lol Keep being naughty. 💕
