| Thank you all so much for the kind words and prayers. I can't tell you how much it has helped. Today it is beautiful here. Sampson and I played in the yard for a long time while the kids napped. I watched this big strong guy running around like a little kid and it killed me. I am still not 100% convinced that putting him down is the right thing to do, however, if I am wrong and he bites someone it will be my fault and mine alone since so many people have warned me. I have to realize that we have to err on the side of caution. I could never live with myself if he hurt someone. While we were playing I saw his streangth and I can only imagine the damage he could inflict if that streangth were used in anger against someone. He has been having a good week, but he did throw up again today. To be honest, I was so happy to see that big mess on the floor. It made me realize that our good week is just that, a good week, and it wouldn't last forever. He's had good weeks before and they always end. Tomorrow he and Mike are going to the park to have some special time together. I guess all we can do is make all the good memories we can these last few days.  |
