I'm so sorry, brenda. This is one of the toughest decisions that a pet owner has to make.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, brenda. Be strong.

{{brenda}} I am so terribly sorry. Lu brightened all our lives, however much we came into contact with her, either through your stories or actually meeting her. May she find wide fields to run in and squeaky toys to her hearts delight.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I am so sorry, Brenda.

Thanks, guys. This has just been so fucking hard on her, and the hits just keep coming, and all I think I can do now is make it stop. But I don't want to. I so fucking don't want to. This isn't how it was supposed to go.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I'm so sorry Brenda. Hoping hard for you to get through this.
My mom just friended me on Facebook. I feel like I should have cleaned before I accepted the request.

Oh, brenda, I'm so sorry.
It seems like you're taking the difficult road upon yourself, in order to prevent Lu from going through that painful and hard road herself. Which is a loving and considerate thing to do, IMHO, even if it doesn't make things any easier for you. I'm so sorry it had to end this way.
And on a completely different topic, thanks, all of you, for your suggestions above, after catching up from the other end of shabbat. They are all collected and will be definitely mailed.
