head, neck, 2 front leg can move, but 2 rear leg cannot move anymore...
the vet advice me to let him go by injection...
but i was rejected...
On Next Day,
I called to another vet and tell my Pipy problem and condition, backbone broken, but still wana eat, drink and also can pee (but no poo)
the Tmn Segar Vet and this vet also advice me to go for UPM vet because i am asking splint operation and giving him wheel chair next time.
so i sent my Pipy to UPM Vet, the vet also advice me to let him go by injection to reduce his suffer... 
i was so confused that time...finially i accepted the advice..
and my Pipy leave the world on 16.12.2008@1145AM... 
I am so REGRET now...
If you were me,
how will you do?
A. Let him go by injection to reduce his suffer?
B. Keep him and give him medication for wheel chair?
Please advice |
Hi, I am also an ECS lover ... presently having my 3rd ECS at home.
To the point of your question,
Like you said letting him go by injection to reduce his suffering to me is the right thing to do given that you appear to love your Pipy since you are feeling emotional about letting him go.
To keep him and give him medication for wheel chair is to reduce our suffering but would that express our love for him or for our own selfish purpose at the expense of his suffering, which of course your Pipy would not be able to articulate to you.
In short, if I were you I would have chosen your path for my own ECS. You did right!!
