I've not been responding with any suggestions so far, because
I'm probably in the minority in my opinion, but I think she is suffering
needlessly, and that HUMANE euthanasia would be the kindest thing for her at
this point. I do not think that putting her through all the invasive procedures
of biopsies and feeding tubes is the right thing to do. I know that if I ever
get to that point, I HOPE that someone will have the kindness to ease my
suffering and end my dwindling life (hopefully it will be legal by then). That's
just how I feel though, and I'm not you, and she's not my cat, and I do not want
you to in any way think that I am judging you, or criticizing your actions. It's
just that you asked for opinions so many times, and I held my tongue a few
times, but your plea has finally given me the will to say what I know will
probably be my unpopular opinion. Whatever you decide, PLEASE make sure it is
the decision that your heart tells you is the RIGHT one, because I know what
living with regret every day feels like, and I don't want anyone to feel that
kind of pain! My sincerest wishes of peace and understanding go out to you and
Akira!

Thank you for the suggestion...I have told her numerous times....yet
wonder if she doesn't believe me? Or if even my BF is complicating things
by telling her no..even though in front of me and her he says its ok....tonight
when I got home form work she looked so much worse...I want to do as she wants
but yet I fear I cant stomach it...I feel so awful about it and then my BF
really is making things worse on me b/c he wants to put her through the biopsy,
feeding tube, and is playing on my confusion right now...and is saying "I told
you so" about wanting to treat her...in more subtle ways (not really saying I
told you so..in fact saying he isn't..but it sure comes across that
way....) I got an estimate form my vet...after a bit of pestering....it
would be over 600$ just to start the feeding tube...and to perform the next
steps of testing to see if she is even helpable..plus she would be in the
hospital for a week or more to start with..and being put under for biopsy's and
the insertion of the tube..I just don't know if it is worth it......to put her
though it...
