I have NEVER put a pet down myself. I have taken out loans to get proper care for a pet who was at an age where the doctor's said they wouldn't be with me much longer but the problem was able to be treated. I do not promote putting an animal down either.
I truely feel this dog is struggling and in pain. I am not the only one who feels this way after seeing him. My mother agrees in one breath but in the next says specifically that SHE is not ready for him to go. She has had extensive tests performed on him and the vet has told her that he will continue with the lumps and problems and they are not treatable except for the injections for pain which are getting expensive for her on a limited income. She has not had him biopsied for cancer because of the cost and the fact that she is not ready to accept that diagnosis. The doctor said that cancer is likely the case being that they are turning up so rapidly and continually growing. Please keep in mind that this was "my" dog and I love him dearly.
I hope this post doesn't come off as b1tchy because that is not how it is meant, I just thought a little more clarification was needed before I get an abundance of posts making me out to be insensitive or an animal killer.

Let me clarify------
I see where you are answering a post, sorry not much sleep last night and see where that statement made, knew I did not make. Anyway, will keep eyes peeled for this kind of spam as well as scammers.
I should clarify.........
I didn't mean if a kid doesn't come out with straight As, they are not smart. What I'm trying to say is by the time they graduate, they should have a firm grasp on reading and writing, and at least a level of math where they will not be taken advantage of as adults. No one expects every kid to be a rocket scientist....heck, I wouldn't want to be that. I took higher maths and sciences because I expected that from myself, but that by no means implies that friends of mine who didn't weren't considered smart. I'm talking about kids who are 16 years old and can't read 3rd grade level. Some of the problem is parents simply aren't involved. There isn't a book in the house, not a newspaper or even a magazine. If a child never EVER sees their parents reading, where is the implied expectation of their children.. Some parents can't read either. So, if the parents know they can't read, then it is their responsibility to talk to the teacher, let them know this, and look for tutoring classes or other avenues to help their children succeed. Don't expect the teachers to do your job in other words... The teachers hopefully will have the resources to help you and your child. A teacher would rather you let them know this than have notes sent home not responded to and no test papers ever signed and returned. My daughter has some parents that she knows cannot read or write past a 5th grade level, and she accepts that, but that is no excuse not to encourage your child and do everything in your power to help your child perform at a higher level.
If they can at least read high school level, can put together a coherent paragraph, and comprehend what they read, they will do better in their adult lives than so many that haven't gotten that far. We have classes where we volunteer to teach adults who cannot read, and I applaud those adults who come forward....I can't imagine the amount of courage and inner strength that must take. They then go away able to read to their children and grandchildren and the joy is all over their face.
Remember the Wendy's guy? Dave something or another? He couldn't read all the way through high school and then managed to get through college without reading, all because he could memorize everything and pass his exams. Unbelievable! But everyone doesn't have that ability...I certainly couldn't do that. Smart to me means being able to read, write, and comprehend at a level where they won't be taken advantage of as adults.
I should clarify... sm
I was talking mostly about the different quality levels of dog food types *overall* (because of the posts about whether Iams was a quality food or not). When I mentioned brand names (like in the 1st paragraph of what I wrote) I was talking about kibble - *dry* dog food only, not canned. None of the dry foods have been on the recall list as far as I know.
I probably should not have combined the 'overall quality' topic with the topic of the recall. Sorry for any confusion.
BTW, I know what you mean about being skeptical. I'm feeling that way myself, and I also hope it gets resolved soon.
Just to clarify.....
This was a post responding to someone who had made a comment to my original post. I make a heck of a lot more money than $300.00 every 2 weeks. I think this girl needs to find another company to work for, unless she's just doing it for some "mad money".
I think I need to clarify.
In case my post was confusing, my 21 y.o. is not afraid of demons or any of the sort and neither is my little one. Once, the little one asked me (when she wasn't home) what were the worms on her legs as he didn't know they were called varicose veins. I explained to him what they were, what they were called, and that he had to be very careful around his grandmother not to hit her on the legs by accident. He has never gone up to her and asked her about the "worms on her legs" as he knows they are called veins. I have raised my 2 sons to be respectful and caring of other people's feelings. My parents never hit us when growing up and yet we learned to respect, not only respect towards them, but respect to ourselves. I have never in my life disrespected my mother or father, and neither have my children. Not all children are the same, some can learn respect without having to be spanked, whooped or beaten.
Ok, let me clarify (if i can...)
Maybe "date" isn't the right word...how bout "hook up" with someone online...and NOT a dating service...maybe that's a better way of putting it...
Maybe I should clarify that I
if my husband did do something like that, I would hit the roof and tell him exactly why it was inappropriate and that him keeping it from me makes it look all the more suspicious.
I can also see my husband coming to me and saying, hey, maybe we should help her out and consulting me on it. Actually that is probably much more likely since we pool our money. Sometimes he is wise and sometimes he is not. Just like all of us really. My point was that men like to be the hero and it boosts their ego. I just wouldn't be so quick to assume the worst. He was probably just wanting to help her.
In no way do I mean to insinuate that the OP is neglectful of her spouse's emotional needs, but now might be the time to remind him that he is her hero.
I did clarify this - said it was probably ONE - sm
of the things that contributed to the divorce, though she left him and initiated the divorce, so probably not, who knows, who cares. She lost a great guy, provider and father of children. But he did not divorce her because she didn't like having sex and couldn't orgasm (not organism by the way). Most women cannot have an orgasm from the "act" itself and need a little help along the way. It is ignorant men who expect a woman to have an orgasm just from intercourse, so for the pleasing aspect I know differently.....
Just to clarify - the brother that my son
lives 30 miles East of my parents. He does not visit, call, he is better than the rest of the family. Read my recent post above in regards to being a future felon. Yes, life is too short now isn't it?
Please clarify...Got WHAT untangled?
Your boobs? aaarrrrrrrrggg!
Just to clarify, that's another "Chuck" (or someone doing ... sm
a bad job of posing as me, which, of course, NEVER happens here, LOL).
I just want to jump in here and perhaps clarify.
I think it's a common belief that the Catholic Church believes marriage outside the Church is sinful. Actually, the Church labels it as non-sacramental. The Catholic Church makes no ruling on the legality of marriages. In other words, if you've followed the laws where you live, and you have a marriage license, you're married civilly. Divorce, also, is a civil matter that is dealt with in the courts.
Catholic annulments, for instance, do not determine whether or not a couple was actually married, but whether or not the couple entered into a sacramental marriage.
A sacramental marriage must take place in a Catholic church, is witnessed by a priest or deacon, etc. Couples married outside of the Church can receive what is commonly called a "blessing", but it is actually their entering into the sacramental state of marriage according to the Church. If their married according to the law where they live, then they are civilly married, and the Church recognizes it as a legal marriage.
Some people consider it a lot of hoop-de-doo, I suppose. But it's part of the faith and tradition of the Catholic Church, and so it should be respected in the same way that people respect the Amish living apart from the modern world.
So, yes, if a couple is married outside of the Catholic Church, the church recognizes their marriage as legal. It doesn't recognize it as sacramental.
It's a topic that others explain better than I. So I apologize if I've actually made the issue more confusing.
To clarify, she didn't do in vitro.
She was using Clomid, I believe. She claims to have polycystic ovarian disease, and so ovulation is a problem for her. The sextuplets were conceived after it was determined that her ovaries were hyperstimulated, and the clinic would not do the insemination. She and her husband were advised to "skip the cycle", but went home and conceived the old-fashioned way anyway. Originally, there were 7 embryos, but one did not develop.
I don't know if Jon and Kate set about to conceive high order multiples, but they definitely went after money not long after the babies were born. What started out as an interesting program showing how two more or less average parents dealt with the demands of raising a family in an average home has morphed into a sad, sorry situation. The live in million dollar home now, and the show seems to be endless vacations and product placements. Those poor kids are on display like a bunch of zoo animals. What a shame. Jon and Kate need to shut down this production and take care of their family.
clarify please-u mean woman playing Mary.....sm
You do mean the person playing character of Mary in this movie got pregnant as a teen?
Welcome to the 21st Century, m'dear.........*lol* - not many couples are getting married today (although the gay community sure is trying to get married).....but the numbers are WAY down for hetero couples.........
in any event, it's just a flick/movie - what do you care about the actors/actresses who are playing the characters? 
I should clarify - that would be rubbing alcohol, not liquor! nm
