Krugman: Doris Lessing Is Gone
The NYT columnist with blog item just now announcing the inevitable: "Some readers may know that for a long time
Robin and I have had two sibling cats, Albert Einstein and Doris
Lessing, both 19. Well, Doris — who had a lot of health problems over
the years, but always managed to hold up — has had a tumor on her liver
for several months. We babied her along, getting her to eat by feeding
her special treats, and she held up much longer than the vet expected.
But several days ago she stopped eating and drinking, seeming
increasingly uncomfortable, and this morning we did the necessary and
had her put to sleep. I bawled like a baby. But she had a good life."
