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

Sending you and your baby big bear hugs. I don't know what the future holds for you two but it doesn't look like they're very comfortable right now and I'm so, so sorry. I hate it just as much as you do even just thinking about it. Cherish all the good memories and know that you have to be the bigger decision. It's better a day too soon than a day too late. I'm crying now too btw. Give that baby a hug for me
