You are absolutely doing the right thing by Layla I recently decided not to proceed with a CT scan albeit my boy is older but you have to have their best interests to the fore front which is exactly what you are doing. Hugs to you all.

I’m just heartbroken that you’re having to go through this with Layla as she is so young. Praying the answers you get mean you can have some more quality time with your beautiful girl, but thinking of your whole family while you navigate through all this uncertainty. X

So pleased she's home. Haha! We've kept the cleaners in a job today at Willows. There was a lot of dried blood when Georgina removed Skip's dressings. As she cleaned it, it made it wet. Skip then shook and there was blood on the floor and up the walls! Only the blood she was cleaning, not fresh, but it was still a mess. I'm sure Spritz meant it as a nice leaving present! Good luck at the check up. Lynne x

So extremely happy for Spritz/Gracie. After knowing how incredibly ill she was and us being told to be prepared and fear the worse, this girl has somehow pulled through and I am ecstatic. I know she will be getting the best possible care where she is in her foster home, and like everyone else I will look forward to hearing her updates. Xx

Message from Spritz foster mom. Spritz/Gracie is "home". Did a massive wee on Willows reception floor on the way out as a thankyou present!! Just had a bit of chicken & rice, plenty of meds to take over the next week. She is now curled up in her bed. Review at Fivelands on Wednesday. Xxx

What a sweetheart. Shabby definitely does not suit her. Let's hope she finds her forever home soon and can be given a new name that suits her. x

Bookworm - I thought it may be difficult for you today so thought a hello would be all you could cope with. I know how difficult it is because we've been through it all with Bert (a rare type of lymphoma) and Skip (an incredibly rare follicular stem cell carcinoma) and feel incredibly lucky that the outcome has been good for Bert and should be good for Skip, but it makes me cry when I think about what you are going through. I've taken my cues from the vets for both of ours and they've definitely geared us in the right direction as to what tests and treatment to undertake. Everything is crossed that there is some good news for you and that everything does work out. In respect of lymphoma, I know that it depends on the type, but Bert was diagnosed over 2 years ago and we gave him chemo at home (tablet form) and he's still going strong - 13 in February. He's off the chemo now as, after nearly 2 years on it, it was making him weak and he got an upset stomach. We know that it could come back, but I'm glad we made the decision to give him the chemo in the first place otherwise his prognosis was about 2 months. Keep us posted. Lynne x

Thanks Pam, we’ll see what the lymph node results are first. She is in good hands at Willows and if these tests are inconclusive we will look into it. We’re not giving up on her, just trying to be realistic given the information we’ve got x
