[QUOTE="Lulamae, post: 24734, member: 2641"] drkhalsa and Navdeep86-- Thank you for your responses. dr khalsa- it sounds like you're talking about hospice for dogs. They do actually have few programs like this but not close to where I live in California. I have a feeling the vet wouldn't let me do it that way, because she wants her to be put down and so would just use my asking for more painkillers as a support for her argument. However, I will ask her. The only objection I have to a method like this is, she would have to be on painkillers for a while (a few weeks, versus a few days), and the painkillers would make her "out of it" mentally, and since she isn't senile and likes eating, likes to be petted, etc. I'm not sure it would improve her quality of life. This suggestion has helped me realize that one of the main issues I'm struggling with is, how much is she suffering, and how good is her quality of life. No actual disease has been diagnosed, although the vet suspects she has cancer. Most of what is ailing her is due to old age. I have seen a few relatives recieve hospice care and both times they were in such physical pain that they preferred to be knocked out with pain killers than be conscious. I don't think Jane is at that point yet. I appreciate your addressing the spiritual aspect; that is what I am most concerned with. Another Sikh I spoke with said the same thing about intention--that since it is made with love, whatever I choose will be the "right" thing. But, don't animals have karma? I thought the Sikhs' view was that we should meet the suffering of others with compassion, but allow it anyway, because whatever they're going through is between them and God? Rajdeep86- Jane isn't riddled with bullets and hemorraging internally. She is old, and possibly has a terminal illness. I don't think this is an apt comparison. "life n death we dun control it who knows fate n destiny today here tomorrow gone ? his time came he need to be somwhere else with someone else who is more needy than you ?" The point is, I AM controlling it if I put her to sleep. "well sorry if provoke u just relaxs.." Why would you post a message that you thought might provoke me? Do you think telling me to "just relax" (with the word "relax" misspelled) is appropriate in this circumstance? It appears you have put no thought into this response whatsoever. It is just juvenile. Any potential posters- It is not my intention to criticize responses; hopefully Navdeep86's insensitive reply is an isolated case. I would love to keep hearing others' opinions, particularly if they are informed by your own experience or by Sikhism. [/QUOTE]
