I commend her. It can't be easy. She is commited, and as long as the little one is fighting she will fight too. |
Generally speaking, make the decision to have an animal euthanized, be it a struggling pup, or very old and sick adult isn't "easy" either, as I am sure we can all agree. Sometimes that is the harding thing to do.
IMO, there is no right or wrong answer or opinion here. There are people who are upset, feeling that Emma is being allowed to suffer unneccessarily and there are people upset because someone would suggest having her PTS. I think that what is being overlooked is the fact that EVERYONE is merely expressing their own opinions on what
they individually feel is best based on their own evaluations of the situation. There is alot of criticism being given to those who don't agree with the choices being made and that have been made thus far regarding Emma and those are being accused of "not being supportive." Just because someone has a differing opinion of what should be done does not mean they don't still support Dena's actions. Heck, there were TONS of things that I did that my mother disagreed with in life, but she still supported me and hoped for the best outcome possible. That is all anyone is doing here.
There comes a time when we all have to examine the situation and determine what is in the best interest of the animal and put our own desires aside. If there comes a time when Dena has to face that choice, then that is a decision she will have to make.
