Katina has passed away at 50 years old, Seaworld Orlando has made an official statement, I have no energy to type everything out word by word so you get the ripped text from my Instagram post.
Oh Katina, I knew this was going to eventually happen but I never thought it would be this soon or like this, where the last time I would ever see you was August of this years, now hundreds of miles away from you.
You were an amazing, awe-inspiring animal, you were my favorite and one of the whales who I've been around since day one when I first went to the parks as a baby, I dont know how to describe how to even feel about the news of your unfortunate passing, it doesn't even feel like you're gone right now, like you're still at Shamu Stadium waiting for a show or swimming with your daughter, son, grandson, and Malia. You're still there in my mind right now, not gone, alive and energetic like how you used to be before this illness took a turn for the worse for you.
I miss you and I love you, you're with your other children now, and the rest of the whales you became close with overtime throughout your hefty, long, and amazing life, this is probably one of the worst things I will go through, I feel weird, this whole situation is weird and doesn't feel real, but that's just part of grief and how the body processes a death of someone special to them, rest in peace Katina, maybe you have all the tongue pat downs and fish in the afterlife.
