| Update I just talked to the vet. The biopsy results were not conclusive. There were not enough cells intact for them to make a diagnosis. They did find inflamatory cells but no bacteria. The doctor is recommending surgical removal of the growth which they will send in for testing since the antibiotics are not working and she is now bothered by it. The growth is still increasing as well. They are going to call back with an estimate, and I have to talk to Penny's daddy about the surgery. He was pretty sure we'd have to have it removed, but this is not good news. Also, we need to keep Penny and the new baby separated until after surgery. Poor Penny. |

| Thanks to all for the prayers. Countdown for surgery is on. As this thing grows and continues to bother her, we are getting more anxious to have it removed and diagnosed. First pic is from yesterday. She had rubbed the scab, causing some crusting and bleeding. Woke up like this. Poor baby. I know she can't understand what is going on. Second is from today. Scab is gone; now just the big yucky growth, but it seems to bother here a bit less without the scab. |

| Ugh... and the drama continues. Penny started throwing up around 4:00 yesterday and continued throughout the night. It was a long, worry-filled night. Took her into the vet this morning. No fever, no abdominal pain, etc. We are going to be conservative for now, just watching her and limiting food/water intake and see how it goes. However, her surgery has now been postponed until NEXT Thursday. UGH. I know it's best for her health not to be put under when she isn't well, but I hate that she'll have to deal with the growth another week. On a positive note, the growth is done just a bit in size. Ha! Maybe the whole thing will magically disappear before next Thursday, and we can put the past 6 weeks behind us! |

My furkids Donating Member | I just read your post...I am so sorry you and little Penny have to go through this...It's so hard because they can't tell you how they feel...Maybe it's a good thing that they had to push the surgery date out..especially if it seems to be going down a little...maybe this is a sign that it will be gone before she needs to have the surgery....sending hugs and prayers your way..

| Thanks for the update. I imagine you must be torn by the good/bad report. Poor little Penny .... we will continue to pray for her.
