What would you do?
I have a 9-year old boxer with a GI infection. While at the vets they found a growth on his thyroid and determined it was cancer. We can do more testing to see if it can be operated on. If it can, it may add 2 years to his life. Boxers are not very good with anesthesia, so operating is a risk by itself.....If untreated, he has about 6 months left. I'm so torn.
Tough one. At 9 he has done well, but it is going to be a rough ride ahead, and not one that he will understand. Sometimes we only see it from a human point of view, which is our pain. Your Boxer, your friend, he will not feel well, and either way, 6 months or two years, he knows you care, and he has made a decision, can you agree with him. Give him all the TLC you can, 6 months is long enough with so many things against him.
Would it be 2 years of pain and reduced mobility or 2 good years. It's a hard decision -- my prayers are with you.
Quality of life is now non-existent. The humane thing to do is to put him down peacefully and with dignity.

Hello. Is there anyone here from an Asian country who got their google adsense approved? I've heard that if you reside in an asian country, you have to wait for 6 months. To be specific? What is it about that 6 months? Is it, your account being 6 months old? Or all of your hubs need to be 6 months...

I joined hub pages recently and have only a few articles online. So if I am to apply for a google adsense account what would be a safe number of articles to have before applying? And is the amount of time the articles are published also a factor?
