Harsh Cruel Words, From a Family Member Options

[Ann H]

I try not to post about my problems with my Snookie being sick but today someone said "Why don't you just put that dog to sleep and put her out of her misery, you know she is eaten up with cancer and is going to die anyway". This person went on to tell me that I am being selfish in keeping her with me and even though she seems to have recovered from her last illness that she must still be in pain.

Why do people have to be so cruel and so hardhearted! This person carried on and on about the money I have spent on her. So what it is none of their business if I wanted to sell my home and be poor the rest of my life. I did not ever borrow money from that person to run all the tests that were done or to pay for her to stay in the hospital.

Oh course I was told no amount of money could save my little girl or I just may have sold my home to fix her. Snookie is not just a dog she is my baby, my child. my heartbeat, the one who loves me in this cruel world. The one who calms me when I am sad and the storms of life seems so hard. Give her up, nothing doing, not until it is her time to go. I will hold onto her with dear life for she is my life.

I am sorry to carry on but when a family member said these things it just kills my soul. They know how I feel about her and should never say things like this.

Oh Pamela it did hurt me so much and I cried so hard and you are right it was a kick. Here we just lost Chili Bean and he was so heartless like that to me. He wanted to know why I didn't leave Chili Beans body for the vet to dispose of. He was mad that it cost $50. to put her to sleep instead of letting the pound do it.

Just up until Snookie got sick my dad let her come to his house almost everyday. After she got sick he told me not to bring her anymore. As a result I don't go over as often as I did and when I do take her it kills me that she has to stay in the car. Her eyes were so sad looking laying there under the blanket so she wouldn't get cold. She looks so sick in this picture as it was right after she recovered but she wanted to go so badly.

To make matters worse he not only told me to put Snookie to sleep but told me to take her to the pound and let them put her to sleep and dispose of her body for free. Oh how I cried when he said that. I will stand my ground no one is going to make me let her go one day sooner than I have to. It sure will not be at the pound it will be at the vets and with me by her side just as she has always been by mine.
Love, Ann
