ode,, will probably die anyway ???    this person is looking  for hope,, not 
negativity...
reminds me of my experience with my dog , misty, many  years   ago,, when a 
large pennsylvania vet hospital,, recommended putting her down.. i  asked the 
head vet, ,"do you have any idea how misty feels ?  she responded  ,,, yes have 
been in this bussiness for a long time, i think i know how misty  feels..... 
i asked the vet,,,  "if you felt the same way, would you want me  to put you 
down"?,,, she paused, shook her head, and said she had never thought  of it 
that way,, and with that,put her arm around me, and said , come on, lets  go 
save 
misty..... .. misty lived another 2 years,, eating lobster and filet  
migon,,, because i always thought it was her last meal,,, me an my kids would 
be  
eating hot dogs... i love that dog.. misty,, thanks for listening.... and maybe 
 
no eared calf will survive.. never give up.. geo.
