I hope we did the right thing. |
I think it is always the right thing when there is nothing that can be done. My ex had a 20 year old dog that could barely move and was covered in maggots, but her family refused to put the dog to sleep. It was clearly suffering.
Then again, I actually feel this way about humans as well. If I'm suffering with little hope of recovery...I hope someone puts me down.
