Max Needs Prayers & I Need Support 2 Attachment(s) I went to the ER/Dog Ophthalmologist with Max this afternoon. :( What my regular vet and I thought was a change in pigmentation 6 weeks ago, the original pink spot has grown very rapidly. It turns out that it's not a change in pigment, but it's a tumor. We don't know if it's cancer and we can't know because the spot is too small to scrape for a reliable diagnosis and it's right on his tear duct. The ophthalmologist feels he will do more harm than good. Friday we are going for minor surgery to have the tumor frozen. He feels that if it is just a histiocytoma (his possible hunch) then he feels we are doing the right treatment. It may be cancer or it may be nothing. Please pray that Max has no issue with the surgery and that we can correct the problem with this procedure. Max has had a really tough life so far and I've had a really tough few weeks.

I'm praying that this procedure will help Max and he will be fine. Sending hugs to you and Max! |
Aw sweet little guy, it breaks your heart when something is wrong with them:(. Prayers for you, Max and the medical staff. |
Awww poor little guy. I will keep Max and you in my prayers. |
Prayers being said for your little man that all goes well with his eye surgery and that it will turn out to be nothing. |
Oh Max :(. I hope it turn out to be nothing, Karen. Max and you will be in my thoughts. I'm so sorry you and Max have to go through this. |
:cry::cry::cry: Poor little Max. I pray it is nothing serious and he is fine. Please keep us updated. |
Hope it turns out ok |
I'm so sorry, Karen. Max has had a special place in my heart since he became a part of your family. You both will be in my heart and prayers. |
Oh, nooooooo...prayers for you both, I know how scary it must be... |
You know you and the boys have my prayers. |
Prayers going out for Max and you as well Karen. I pray this procedure will be of great help to Max and that he has no problems. |
Praying for Max and for you Karen. |
Sending positive thoughts for you & sweet Max. Take care. |
Max, that adorable boy, and you are going to be in my prayers from this moment on. Hopefully it's just a tumor and nothing malignant. Praying for the best outcome and Maxey makes it through the procedure just fine. Stay strong and know we are with Max and you. |
Thank you. I knew I could come here and feel comfort. |
Oh Max, I love you buddy... you need to be all fine and clear for your mommy's sake. :) I'll be thinking of you all, please update us asap. Good vibes coming your way from Jackson and I. |
Greetings from south Georgia! One of my yorkies had a histiocytoma on his eye last spring. It was located on the inner canthus (the corner of his eye closest to his nose). Because of its location it was uncomfortable for him. It grew very quickly. We had it surgically removed and were so relieved when the biopsy revealed it was benign. The lesion was identical to the one in your photo. We will pray for you and your yorkie. I have enjoyed following the amazing variety of informative posts on Yorkie Talk for several months now. This is my first post. I thought maybe it was about time I joined in and offered a little reassurance... I have learned a great deal from you all. Thanks for allowing me to share. |

Oh, Karen, I am so sorry. It is so scary to have these unknown things with our babies. Hopefully, it is a nothing thing. I will keep Max and you in my thoughts and prayers. |
I don't know how we will know if it's nothing. I guess if freezing it doesn't help then we have to take the next step. The doctor said it could take up to 6 months to see effect. My fear is that if it is indeed cancer then I would have waited too long! I have to follow his advice. |
Ohhhhh I did not catch that. He cannot do anything else? Cannot remove it or biopsy it? It does not look that small. No needle biopsy can be done? |

Karen, I am praying that Max is ok. He is so adorable! I know how scared you must be. It is encouraging that the vet doesn't think it's cancer. I pray that the procedure will take care of it. Hugs...Jean and Daisy and Teddy Bear |
Aw Karen I'm sorry you guys are going through this. Peanut and I will be sending good vibes for a perfect surgery and prayers for a speedy recovery. We will be sending prayers for you too, you can get through this and everything will work out for the best.. It has to!! (((( HUGS to you, Max and Cooper)) |
Thanks again everyone. I'm a total wreck but am doing the best I can. I always think the worst. Max is not having general anesthesia. He's going to have dexdomitor/torb injection (copied from my paperwork). The doctor called it twilight anesthesia and believes Max will do fine. He says its less invasive. I feels so badly for him. Max hates the car because he fears we are going to the vet (even though we always go to the dog park too). He walks in with his tail between his legs, rolls over in submission and pees:( Everyone always says how sweet and docile is. He\'s such a good boy. I hope this ends quickly and painlessly for him. Poor dog has been through enough testing in his life. |
Prayers for sweet little Max. I will be with you in spirit on Friday. Big hugs for you as you wait for results. |
Aw, I wish I could give Max a big hug. Poor baby. Teddy Bear is scared of the vet too. Daisy and Teddy Bear send Max kisses. I know it\'s hard not knowing for sure. You and Max will be in my thoughts and prayers. |
