Worried about Earl

[Tobi]

You know what? Sometimes these things have different 'levels' to them, and what we see on the outside is not exactly what's happening. Earl may be drifting slowly into the next world in his own time, and partly detached from what's going on in some ways. I have heard the Soul can sometimes leave the body when things get rough. He is finding his last few weeks on Earth a gentle experience perhaps?

But is there any option for pain control with a snake? What is the safest thing you could use if you feel it's needed? I wouldn't have a clue....
