    Default Sandi Sue, many of you knew her

    On the night of October 30, 2009, she cried over and over again. Very unusual for her. I stayed up with her until about 0530 on October 31. We fell asleep. At about 0700 she woke up crying and I was at my wits end to help her. She was a very old dog, extremely well cared for dog and the most close to me mammal short of my mother in my life. I explained to my wife, who I also love better than my own life, that it was time to allow the veterinarian to do the inevitable and end her suffering. To this day I have not fully accepted that decision.

    God bless the painless and miraculous abilities of that kind doctor.

    This may be inappropriate but it remains my custom.

    I am sorry for your loss. You made the right call. Why keep her around when she is pain?

    I have had to make that same call several times, and it is never easy. But if you love your pet you will do what is right for the pet - not to make yourself happy


    How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

    To make that decision is the hardest thing to ever do.
    It just rips your heart out and you never truly get over it.

    Weve had the vet come to the house the last few times
    we have needed to make the call and it helps us not to have to make the 45 minute drive to Cookeville through
    curtains of tears.

    You knew when it was time and she knew you loved her
    and thats really what matters.
    What are reparations? Making me pay
    for something I had nothing to do with compensates no one
    who suffered an injustice therefore I would be penalized for
    something I didnt do and someone else would receive a settlement
    for an injury they did not suffer.
