The specifics on the tumor was it could be a toy she chewed up.. but I know for a fact that wasnt it unless it was over 2 yrs ago before I got her.. or it is a cancerous tumor that she believed was attached to the stomach. She said there was no other way to tell for sure without cutting her open. I mentioned hairball since Brandy does like to chew herself and she said that was an option but there was no way to dissolve it and there was no way to biopsy with a needle. So basically expensive surgery is the only option and since she is 10 she doesnt have a very good recovery chance because if it is a cancer they will have to remove most of her stomach with it. I have a picture of the xray but still trying to figure out how to resize to post here. I resized one but it says its still to big. .so will keep trying.
