I had the tumor/gland removed (unfortunately alittle spread to his aorta). The tumor was cancerous...I did five rounds of chemo with him and was told he had six months. (by surgeon..not the vet who did the chemo)...it has been over two years...and after most of the tumor was removed most of his symptoms got better...his peeing and drinking decreased and so did his panting...his pot belly stayed though :-)
...and he had/has a great quality of life.he goes for long walks every day and he loves his toys...the past few months his symptoms are getting worse again, including loosing some hearing and eye sight..and I am getting ready to take him in for another blood test and ultra-sound to see what is going on.
He is on no meds, except azydol which is for kidneys.... |
I don't know how you do it. I think the last time I got a good nights sleep was the night before Krissy fainted for the first time which was 8/4. I have been an emotional wreck and I really think I would have a stroke if I had to go thru that much with Krissy.
I admire and envy you your ability to do so much for your fur baby. I will pray for him along with Krissy.
