No it's not, if it really is that's sick. I have lost a wife. I have lost a nephew who was 10, I have lost my dad and I will loose my mom in the next few weeks or months. Dogs and cats dont need cancer treatment. they need put out of their misery. It's only another scam to separate people from their money using emotions instead of logic.

I'm not trying to minimize your feelings or decision. I'm only trying to help put some perspective on things. When emotions are involved most of the time people do foolish things that can have long lasting effects.

Life is in a different perspective after you lose your wife. Period! sry....LB

I know this may sound lame but it was for the best. It was time. Of course it would have been ideal for her to just go in her sleep one night but it wasn't meant to be as it could have been a longer drawn out painful situation. So you did the right thing.

You did the right thing mate.

She is very fortunate for the good life after you rescued her. Fortunate that when she was sick, ill and uncomfortable and had a loving hand guide her to sleep. If we all could be so fortunate when the time comes.
