Kimber was 11 when she was diagnosed with epitheliotropic lymphoma. Kimber was an old soul from the moment I met her as an 8-week old puppy. She had expressive eyes and a calm energy. Although she was ambivalent towards most people, she was fiercely devoted to me. She was gentle and kind, and she was her sweet, happy self right up to the day we lost her. Even in the throes of cancer she wouldn’t see me distressed, and she left this world of her own accord exactly one month after she was diagnosed. I became a CORE Member in her honor.
