Warrior: Death and Dissection

Warrior took a significant turn for the worse. The Penicillin was fighting off the infection and his leg was healing. However, his energy and spirit were not able to recover. This morning he didn’t get up to eat and drink when I went to check on him. I tried to rouse him a few times, but he was unable to stand. Sasquatch knew it was Warrior’s time.

There is a time for everything,

and a season for every activity under the heavens:

a time to be born and a time to die . . . 

a time to kill and a time to heal . . . 

Ecclesiates 3:1-3

While Sasquatch did have the brief idea of burning Warrior on a funeral pyre (Luke and Leia were experiencing their first burn pile this morning), we will instead learn from Warrior through a classical practicum entitled “Death and Dissection.” We will learn anatomy through dissection while having a philosophical and theological conversation about death and end of life ethics. 

As stated in Ecclesiastes, there is a time and season for everything. 

While it was Warrior’s time to die, it is almost the gilts’ time to give birth to their first litters. 

Who would have thought that one of Jennie’s favorite activities would be checking in on pregnant pigs and feeling the piglets kick.
