please pray for sammy :[
 

about two weeks ago, sammy, the family german shepard mix, had an ear infection. he got medicine to cure it. About 3 days later, his glands were swollen. When we took him to the vet, they said that it the infection is spreading down to his throat, so he got medicine for that. Soon thereafter his ear infection was gone, but his glands were getting harder and bigger. Just yesterday, we took him back to the vet. They took him into the back and it was quite a long visit for him, but i didnt think too much of it (im only thirteen, i didnt think too far into it :p ) . but after about a half hour, we were still in the waiting area at Banfield's, the doctor came out and asked to speak with my mommy. so i went and wandered around petsmart for like 10 minutes with Caden. we got back to the car with sammy and my mom just wasnt herself, but she assured me that everything was okay. he was going to be on an antibiotic, my mommy told me. then this morning, my mom bought it up to me in a comforting manner. she said 'Kelli, the doctors are saying that there is a 90% chance that it is cancer.' i was devastated !

so can you please please say an extra prayer for him and my family ?

thank you everyone ! :)

Hugs and prayers go out to all of you. Let's pray it isn't cancer. Are they going to test for that?

Oh sweetie what a hard thing for someone at your tender age to have to deal with. I will keep you AND Sammy in my thoughts and prayers along with your entire family. Please keep us updated.

I'm so sorry Honey. I'll be praying that Sammy is in the 10% that isn't cancer. Hugs to you, Sammy and your family.

yesterday, mommy and daddy took sammy to the vet for a check-up on his situation, and to discuss the results of the tests. They are still not sure that it is cancer, but they are more certain that it is :( . They said that he would need to come in for a biopsy (mommy never told me what that is, and im pretty sure it would only make me sadder if i knew :confused: ) . so this morning, daddy dropped him off at the vet, and i went off to school sssoooooo worried !! i didnt know how serious a bioppsy is ... (and i still dont)

soo ... now my SammyWammy is in the vet for a full day away from me and Caden =[

i miss him soo much ! and he comes back tonight ='[

please keep praying ! it would be greatly appreciated ...

Oh hon...will do. I am so sorry. Hopefully it will clear up and it was a wrong or faulty diagnosis. Is there any chance of that?

I am praying for your Sammy.
