Adopt-A-Pet (Unless You're Dying of Cancer, That Is...)

   Yesterday, we went to visit our friends Debbie and Chuck. Chuck is being consumed by cancer. Saw him a couple weeks ago and I wondered if it was the last time I'd see him. Wondering that about yesterday's visit as well. 
   Anyway, Debbie was telling us that a few weeks ago, she went to an animal shelter to adopt a dog to cheer Chuck up and keep him company and whatnot. The animal shelter denied her request because they did not want the dog to be in "an emotionally depressing atmosphere". Can you fucking believe that? Turning down a dying cancer patient and opting instead to probably give the dog the hot shot. Assholes.
