Yesterday I put my dog of over 15 years down. It was the gentlest of
goodbyes. The vet and his assistant were wonderful. I held her as they
tenderly jabbed the vein in her front leg -- 10 seconds later it was all
over with an overdose of anesthetic. Oh we, as humans, could have that
option!

So for all you pet owners in this group who probably wrestle with the notion
of putting pets down - please know, it's not a bad way to go.

Went home and cooked liver for my family. Now that was bad -- I usually
love liver but the meal just didn't taste the same, as I suppose any meal
would under the circumstances.
