I'm sorry, Steve. I'm sure you weren't expecting that. I sure wasn't. Sending good thoughts and prayers for Carlo that it isn't the awful "c" word.

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.

Steve, Just reading this. I am so sorry about Carlo! I hope everything works out ok. I will be praying for you guys.

Very sorry Steve, give Big Guy extra kisses from me & Zhoie. Sending many healing prayers.

Mardelin · 11-01-2010, 05:03 PM

It's not the news I was expecting to hear. My prayers go out to you, Marge, Carlo and Maxine.

Give that big boy a kiss for me.

I'm sorry to hear about Carlo. He is very lucky to have you. I am hoping that you hear some positive results for him.

alaskayorkie · 11-01-2010, 05:13 PM

Ugh, so sorry for the bad news. I'll be keeping Carlo and your family in my thoughts.

Roccosmommy · 11-01-2010, 05:14 PM

So sorry to hear this news, but hoping and praying the results come back as benign. Sending big hugs to the big sweet lug.

I'm so sorry to hear this, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it seems like when another cancer pops up soon after the old cancer is treated, this pattern continues. I pray you have the strength, wisdom, and guidance to make the best decision for Carlos. I'm really sorry you are going through this Steve.

Ladymom · 11-01-2010, 05:35 PM

Oh, Steve, I am so sorry for such bad news. I pray it's not cancer.

Cha Cha · 11-01-2010, 06:50 PM

Steve, you have been through a lot in the last few months with Carlo. He is so lucky to have you, and you him. Sending good vibes for favorable results on those tests.
