I am passing this to some on the list on behalf of Jen Arends , who just lost her beloved Lahela. I have to agree, that to be critical of someone or state what a better decision you would have made on the heels of someone's loss, is truly insensitive and tasteless....you know who you are. Kathy Tank >>>>>>>>>>>> Sater-Nordlicht My Lahela (Jamiroquai x Aladdin's Libby) died yesterday afternoon in front of me. She was only 4. ANYONE who knows me, knows how much my dogs mean to me. I stood there and watched her go into cardiac arrest and have a vet and *6* techs working their asses off to try and save her life for over an hour. So for someone to say "that is why I dont do anesthia" is RUDE! I chose to have that done because it IS a safe procedure! DON'T judge me because you DON'T know me. Those who do and are my friends know how much I loved her and the hopes and dreams she carried for me. So, on that note, if you can't say something positive about someone who's family member just died, SHUT UP. Thank you to those list members who have sent their thoughts and prayers!
