I wish you peace, comfort, and friendship during this most difficult time. Just a few years ago I had to make that decision for the first time in my life ever. My precious Beener was terminal, although he was not yet in too much pain. I decided to put him to rest before he showed signs of too much pain. It was so hard but it was also something that I am glad that I did because he was a good boy and a gentle, kind, loving soul. He didn't deserve to suffer.

I think you made such a brave, mature decision. You have listened to Rufus without words and I think you are very brave.

Peace and comfort to you during this difficult time. I am crying at the feelings you must be feeling tonight. Please don't be afraid to cry. Ever.

Love,

Leslie
