Thank you for this article. It describes so well the angst that comes with making such a hard decision.
I respect all religions and no longer practice one, other than love and kindness, which is at the heart of all world religions. I know not everyone relates to this, but I also channel the Archangels. I just wanted to tell you that I’ve asked about our pets and making these decisions, and the Angels tell me our pets, who also have souls, are thankful to us for releasing them from their pain and failing bodies. They often reincarnate and rejoin us. They also greet us on the other side.
I hope you find comfort in this. Blessings.
