quality of life

angus has improved a little since my last post.  he is still very wobbly and gets turned around pretty easily.  the vet said that he isn't in any pain, but that he is probably queezy and is definitely dizzy.  who wants to feel like that all the time?  so, we're now starting to wonder about his quality of life.  every one always asks "are they in pain?".  well, pain isn't the only thing that you have to consider when judging quality of life.  he's confused, stressed, tired, and depressed.  all of those things play into the decision.  we have an appointment with our vet tomorrow to help us start making decisions.  i've been praying (which i don't do on a regular basis) that i will make the right decision.  when i think about how miserable he is, it makes me think it's time... but then i see him get a little better and i second guess myself.  this has been a very long week.
