Soupy- You will have to check with the hospital and your doctor for answers to your great questions about your dog and doctor-assisted death.

I'm glad that you have talked with your doctor and family to make a joint decision. I feel better with that one too.

Have you yet seen or talked to your doctor about your chest pain?

Are you still planning on your trips?

Hi Merry…Yes, I talk to my Dr quite often. So I’m doing 5 days of Radiation when I get back on Sept 5. They will do scan first, I assume to mark where they will zap. I opted for the five days of lower dose. I would have sworn that he had said it was five weeks and 10 weeks but obviously and thank God it’s not. I called about MAID filled out the forms and emailed it. They told me once they check my medical records someone will be out to see me. Apparently I would be able to give them up to 2 days notice for them to come and do the deed. Hopefully the radiation will stall it somewhat and it won’t be for awhile. I’ve only had smaller pains but yes it’s from the lung. Thank you for all your input to me. Much appreciated.
