If it is Mast Cell Cancer, I will have a real tough decision to make, as I have to think of his quality of life, and am not sure I want him going thriu more surgeries and more Chemo. He is almost 11, and this is about 1 year longer than the average life expectancy. He was wobbly when he came out to me before I met with the Specialist. They really had to knock him out during the procedure. His rear legs were wobbly. Took all I had to lift him up into the Vehicle. I really am getting old as 140 pounds was never a problem. Then again, Like Carlo, I am also getting a bit long in the tooth. Thanks for all of your well wishes for the big guy. He is now in Marge's office sleeping. | I'm so sorry to hear this Steve, I hope that it is benign, and that Carlo will be around a good long healthy time with you and your family.
