Very sorry to hear that HJ. I've been there with dogs and rabbits in the past and it is not a position anyone would want to be in. I've always put complete trust in a very good vet and have been guided by their professional and compassionate advice. I am sitting with by boy Dakota having a hug on the couch, him watching me type this, and we are both sending positive thoughts to you.

We are very sorry for you too HJ. It's a horrible thing to have to do but if poor Oscar is suffering then it will be the right thing. I've lost many pets in the past and had cats pass away in my arms before. It's heartwrenching, and we send you our hugs and blessings. I had my beloved cats cremated and keep their ashes in little wooden boxes with photos and crystals, it gives me some peace. They are always with us in spirit. Xxx
im making a big video slide show for the father in law of all the thousands of photo's he's taken while holidaying here the the uk and also all the vast train journeys he's taken on steam trains. yes, he's a bit of a train enthusiast.
i've been putting slideshows together to go on a dvd for him, but the music ive chosen has been criticised a little bit. likening it to something you'd hear if someone had died...
so, um, does anyone know of any good instrumental music out there that lasts over 6mins and puts you in a pretty good mood, especially for looking at photos of steam trains and lovely landscape shots???
i plan to keep the slide shows down to about 6mins, using the same track. so it can't sound too repetitive.
I have a theory about this. It is quite common for people to feel under the weather during the week, but continue at work, then succumb to the illness over the week-end. This is because your immune system suppresses the worst of the symptoms due to the stress of delivering work commitments, then when time off approaches, the stress eases off and let's in the full effect of the lurghy. The more stressful the job, the more the illness is suppressed. Only saw an example of this very syndrome earlier this week. Just a theory.
