Sunday #1

I am left to wonder is it still living if one is drugged to a point that his/ her personality is all but a memory~ the light that is uniquely yours blown out by chemical after chemical? does the answer change if the individual is old or young? physically healthy or impaired? human or animal? what is living?

My dog has bitten people.  He for lack of better words is a victim.  He was abused as a puppy and after I adopted him and we were on a walk, he was attacked several times.  For lack of a better term, I say he has PTSD. 

Drugs may be an option, but how will I know if I can trust him.  He took medicine before and still bit people while medicated.

Will he still be the same dog?  Will he still enjoy running so much you can see him smile?  How will I know?  And then would it be too late?

I am distraught.
