Perhaps you ought to reconsider criticizing someone else's morals and ethics and reflect on your own first.
He was not actually paralyzed he had a blockage that affected him he got weak and would just lay in one spot. I feed him a pea with a small grain of epsom salt and it seemed to help him. If there was no way that he would get better than yes I would euthanize him but I would never do it without seeking a fix first. If you can't take critizium then maybe you should think before you post.
