As many of you know, I own four wolf-dogs (hybrids) who arecurrently residing at the home of my dear friend who has MS,Edna, and her elder son, who live nearby.The most energetic of the "pups," 10-year-old Two Moons(white quarter moon above each eye), recently had surgeryto have a giant benign cyst removed. She has recoveredjust beautifully. It will be a miracle if Edna's son survivesall this, as you will read.So, Two Moons' stitches are out; the plastic cone aroundher neck and head is off and she is tearing around the place; fortunately, they own two lots of land! The twoother "pups" are joining her in play. However:Now, the mother, OOKI, (Aleut for "Talks a Lot") who isonly 18 years old (126 in human

years), and has beendiagnosed with metastasized cancer YEARS ago, isfinally on her way out. . .appears to have had a stroke,cannot move since yesterday, and Edna and son aretrying to find a way to euthanise her at home--which wouldbe legal in Oregon and in many other states, but is not here.So, I had told some of the residents and friends in my apartment building about this. One guy, noting that a resident hadrecently succumbed, just arrived with enough morphine to takedown a tiger; he somehow got the building manager to let himinto the deceased's apartment and just brought it to me. I just peeled the name off each and every one of the thesevials. Edna and I are both diabetic, so we have syringes.You get the picture: The son really wants to do this, but Ednawants to wait. Meanwhile, the poor son is killing himself takingcare of the poop, the pee, and feeding the

dog soup with one ofthose plastic tubes with a squeeze bulb at the end (for suctioningthe fat off broth, stock, meat juices, etc). OOKI appears to wantcompanionship, but not to be in pain, but is largely paralyzed.I told them that they would have to decide between them, but that I wanted the stuff (medicine) out of my place, so I have just delivered it to them. Edna's son is busy digging a gravein the yard. I rather think that in about three days OOKI shallhave passed on to wherever doggies/wolves do after death."Bulletins will be issued."Love to you all, fromn, "a dog nut," not a "doughnut!"

As I am the legal owner of the dog, if I had the money, Iwould just drive her to the local vet. None of us has themoney, having spent it all on Two Moons' surgery, orthe poor animal would not be in this awful pickle.Love to you, Debbi,nTo: MSersLife Sent: Mon, January

So sorry, n, it's a hard decision to make but the best one - once

animals are immobile, they get problems even quicker than people... :-(

Glad you found a " traveling " vet. I think this is so much easier

for people and Ooki alike, home where she is comfortable....

As many of you know, I own four wolf-dogs (hybrids) who are

currently residing at the home of my dear friend who has MS,

Edna, and her elder son, who live nearby.

The most energetic of the " pups, " 10-year-old Two Moons

(white quarter moon above each eye), recently had surgery

to have a giant benign cyst removed. She has recovered

just beautifully. It will be a miracle if Edna's son survives

all this, as you will read.

So, Two Moons' stitches are out; the plastic cone around

her neck and head is off and she is tearing around the

place; fortunately, they own two lots of land! The two

other " pups " are joining her in play. However:

Now, the mother, OOKI, (Aleut for " Talks a Lot " ) who is

only 18 years old (126 in human years), and has been

diagnosed with metastasized cancer YEARS ago, is

finally on her way out. . .appears to have had a stroke,

cannot move since yesterday, and Edna and son are

trying to find a way to euthanise her at home--which would

be legal in Oregon and in many other states, but is not here.

So, I had told some of the residents and friends in my apart

ment building about this. One guy, noting that a resident had

recently succumbed, just arrived with enough morphine to take

down a tiger; he somehow got the building manager to let him

into the deceased's apartment and just brought it to me.

I just peeled the name off each and every one of the these

vials. Edna and I are both diabetic, so we have syringes.

You get the picture: The son really wants to do this, but Edna

wants to wait. Meanwhile, the poor son is killing himself taking

care of the poop, the pee, and feeding the dog soup with one of

those plastic tubes with a squeeze bulb at the end (for suctioning

the fat off broth, stock, meat juices, etc). OOKI appears to want

companionship, but not to be in pain, but is largely paralyzed.

I told them that they would have to decide between them, but

that I wanted the stuff (medicine) out of my place, so I have

just delivered it to them. Edna's son is busy digging a grave

in the yard. I rather think that in about three days OOKI shall

have passed on to wherever doggies/wolves do after death.

" Bulletins will be issued. "

Love to you all, from

n, " a dog nut, " not a " doughnut! "
