Purring for Betty's comfort. MLB


Thank you. Comfort is a hard issue. Looking at Betty, I can't
possibly see how she could be comfortable. Her oncologist felt that
it would be cruel to keep her alive - and that was last month. But
Betty isn't giving me any sign that she's uncomfortable. It's
puzzling, but I'm glad.


My heart goes out to you, Tak. I, too, have had to make this decision for
a dog who had a cancer that affected his face. He was taken to a
university vet hospital in Cambridge and had chemo. It didn't work for
long.
I loved him, and didn't want to let him go. His name was Count.
His face started to ulcerate and bleed and I finally got it into my head
that nothing more could be done.
I took him for the most wonderful walk of his life in the woods and let
him run free and threaten the local wildlife. Then we drove to the vet
and said goodbye. I feel tearful telling you, but that's how I dealt with
it.
