Tokitae has died

Orca Network posted this a little over two hours ago to Facebook

"With heavy hearts and tears in our eyes Orca Network shares and confirms the 
news that Tokitae/ Sk'aliCh'elh-tenaut/Lolita, passed away today at the Miami 
Seaquarium around 4 pm Eastern Time, surrounded by her loving care team and 
veterinarians, who did everything they could to save her after a very short 
illness. She developed a gastrointestinal issue two days ago for which she 
was receiving treatment, and then today suddenly developed acute renal 
failure and could not besaved despite the best efforts of the veterinary 
team. More information will be available in the coming days. For now, we ask 
for everyone's prayers and respect, while our Orca Network pod grieves for 
this huge loss.

One thing that brings us comfort is knowing that yesterday, as Toki began 
struggling and was on her journey home to the next world, her entire family 
was off the west side of San Juan Island in what these days is a rare 
gathering, with all three pods swimming up and down the island, socializing 
in a Superpod; and the L12s are still there today. This is often a 
cultural/social ritual to mark a significant event in their community, and we 
believe they were welcoming her home.

Toki is finally home, maybe not the way we wanted, but her family seems to 
know she is with them once again, in ways we may never comprehend.

A vigil in Tokitae’s memory will take place at the Langley Whale Center, 
105 Anthes Avenue, Langley, WA, on Saturday, August 19, from 6-8pm.”

Me again:

I have failed Tokitae, in that my new age onset magickal workings have not 
worked yet. I just did my blessing on the dead on her. I then facilitated 
(she had to agree) a soul alignment between her and the Vancouver Canucks 
home stadium (I am not sure if it is called GM Place or Rogers Place these 
days), which is appropriate since the logo of the Canucks is an orca.
