Well, a couple weeks ago, Skyler, my dog began “swelling” near the incision site. Just a little. This past week, it has grown quite a bit, and I took her to the vet this morning.
The vet feels the cancer is back, and if so, very aggressive, to grow so quickly in a short span of time. He of course was not 100% sure that it was another tumor, but said he feels surgery is definitely warranted. So tomorrow morning in she goes again to have this removed. I hope it is not the cancer back. I hope it is something benign, or something else non-serious wrong.
This past week though, her energy has been way down, very sleepy, not getting up too much. So I know something is amiss, and I do fear the worse, only because I see how tired and worn she is. Just a few months ago she was still chasing her tail around and wrestling with my son in the living room.
Tomorrow, I will find out after the surgery how it went, and I hope they say it was not a tumor (and hopefully something not too severe). If it is a tumor, it will be another week waiting for pathology reports.
Thanks all for listening I will keep you all posted.
Lisa, I am so sorry to hear about your dog. That must be so hard. She and your family are in my prayers.
It is hard, but we are thinking positive and hoping she pulls through all of this. Thank you so much for the special words.
