In Memoriam . . .

iPod Touch
October 2009-August 2010
We bought it to keep Marley entertained on the flight from California to Hawaii. It was expensive but it was an investment. We knew she would love it because she used to spend hours at Christi's house playing on her iPhone. She did love it. That beloved iPod Touch provided us with hours of entertainment. Movies, music, games, scriptures, email, Facebook, CrossFit, you name it, that little gizmo could deliver it.

Not a day went by in the West household when someone wasn't using the iPod. Or as Marley affectionately referred to it, "myPod".
But one fateful night, Marley fell asleep with it. She wasn't playing with it or even watching a show, she just wanted to sleep with it. Against my better judgement, I didn't go in to retrieve it after she fell asleep.

The next day I found it. Drenched... nay, saturated in urine.

It was dead.

Thanks for the good times, expensive little iPod. May you rest in pee.

I know there are never adequate words during times like this. Just know that we love you and we're thinking about you.
