On this day, in 1996, a tiny little black ball of fur walked across a dry dirt covered yard, avoiding her brother and sister wildly playing, made a direct path over to me and sat on my foot while resting her head on my leg, looking up at me. On May 16, 1996, i was chosen. For the next 13.5 years, Saisar SADDI Berrong loved me, protected me, saved my life, loved me more, gave me daily reasons to smile, taught me to appreciate the simple things within life, loved me, was always there for me, took care of me when i was sick and was always my very best friend. Today, tears fill my eyes and heart as i miss my SADDI so much, but as these tears fall down my face, they pass a smile from all the beauty and cherished memories SADDI shared with me. i am a better human because of this silly beautiful amazing doggie.
SAISAR unlimited foundation seeks to raise funds for those struggling with vet cost. No one should be denied services because of their financial limits and no one should have to suffer either.
Happily and proudly married queer male to my beautiful partner Devon. My love and inspiration for a wonderful life is Saisar Saddi Berrong (February 28, 1996 to August 9, 2009), a very beautiful, spoiled and loyal chow/lab mix. (SADDI is far more human and humane than most of the 'humans' we have encountered within my life) I am an award winning poet (Famous Poets Society 1996) with a strong passion for photography. Devon and I are planning to open our own gallery to highlight not only our own talents, but those who are not yet known within the arts community. Everyone needs a beginning and we want to encourage that space and confidence for others. I am also a writer, currently working on a book about my life, the struggles and overwhelming joys.
But right now my direction in life has shifted because of my precious SADDI's death. The SAISAR unlimited foundation will work to raise funds for people struggling with vet bills. We will also gather supplies to give to dogs, who along with their humans, are homeless. The memory of SADDI will live on by the good that can be done within the community.
