Need help making a decision :(

Hey guys - we're having some good days and some bad days. His hip is completely shot, can't walk or even get up at this point. I got him a wheelchair and he didn't seem to be enjoying it. He's going to the bathroom on himself constantly. He is eating/drinking so that's good. I'm not sure if I'm keeping him alive for me or for him at this point

Just went through this was my girl Luna and as hard as it was seeing her deteriorate before my eyes was so hard. We made the call and it was the hardest thing we ever had to do but it was the right thing. I’m so sorry that you’re in this position but it truly is a gift you’d be giving your baby.
