Newman's Biopsy Came Back - He Has Cancer. Hi Everyone. Just wanted to say thanks again to everyone that posted good thoughts. We received the news today on Newman's biopsy. We are devestated. He has a mass cell tumor in his foot. It's very rare and it's aggressive. We don't have any options really. They are unable to go back in and remove anymore of the tumor due to it being on his foot pad and no where for them to go without amputating his whole leg. We opted not to do this because there is still no guarantee and due to the fact that he has a collapsed trachea and he's ten years old. Our other option was to put him through aggressive radiation treatment, but again there is no guarantee. From what the doctor has said, it would be more then likely that the tumor would still grow back. Newman is feeling great right now. Probably better then he has in a long time, so we've opted to keep him comfortable and let him live his life as he's doing until we see that it's time to let him go. Again, thank you to everyone. This is so so very hard. Elaine |

my goodness, what a terrible thing. im glad to read that newman is doing good though! this is the main thing. please keep us updated! :) |
Dear Elaine. I am so sorry to hear the doctor's report for Newman. My sweet Sophie was 13 in January, and helped her cross the Rainbow Bridge on January 23. It was one of the most difficult decisions and agonized for weeks because I didn't want to lose her in my life. She was so fragile and became progressing weaker. However, the answer came so clearly to me and as I looked into her little eyes, they said "please help me, Momma". That morning, I called the vet, made the appointment for the afternoon. It was peaceful, extremely quiet and dear Sophie was not upset. Her ashes are in a little urn that sits on my bedside table. You will make the right decision for Newman, and I would keep him with you and comfortable until he let's you know that he is tired. Bless you and know that others have walked along the same path. Warmly, Deborah |
Elaine my heart breaks for both of you. This is the time we all dread but know eventually we all must face. I believe your doing the right thing by Newman. You'll know when the time comes but in the meantime enjoy the time you have with him. Prayer's coming that he remains comfortable for many, many months to come. Hugs from Buddy and I, |
Elaine, I'm so sorry about Newman:( I know how difficult this is for you, but I know Newman will let you know when he\'s ready. God bless you both. |
love to you both ... My heart is truly crying for you and Newman throughout all this .... I admire your strength .... hugz to Newman |
I\'m so very sorry Elaine:cry: FWIW, I think that you\'re doing the right thing by him by not putting him through treatments or surgery that would make him feel icky. Prayers going up for Newman and your family:hands: |
I\'m so sorry to hear that. I think you made the right decision. Give him lots of hugs and kisses. |
Really sad news. ...My heart goes out to you...I am so sorry. I am sure he is very gratefull for everything you have done for him untill now. All you can do now is give him lots of love and keep your spirits up, altho I know it must be devastating. You are both in my prayers |
