I have tears in my eyes, just reading about your situation...I can't imagine living it, although, I have had to, several times...I went to the same vet for about 30 years, until he retired (I mourned him, like he had died, instead of retired), but he always gave me the best advice about these things...When I was really young, I ask him when you knew it was time, and he said, "when they don't wag their tail, anymore"...So go w/your gut feelings, and watch to see how much he really wants to be here, or not...If he doesn't mind being here, a little sickly, for a while, that's o.k., but you'll know....I know your friends at YT will be praying for you to be comforted and at peace w/your decisions, as you make them...God Bless.... |
