Hi guys, had a terrible week and have some bad news. My dog Baxter was diagnosed with lymphoma late last week after we noticed him acting a bit strange and having a little trouble breathing. Without treatment and only on steroids, average is 2-4 months. We started his meds yesterday and have about 3 more days to decide whether we are going to start any chemotherapy treatment, which I'm talking to the vet tomorrow about and hopefully won't cost an arm and a leg. Any treatment for lymphoma is designed to put the cancer into remission for a short period and after it relapses, palliative care is called for, because there is no cure. So my beautiful and strong 6 year old German Shepherd now has an aggressive fatal disease and my world has crashed down around me. I have to call my boss today and talk to her about how I might not be able to keep it together at work this week. Tough stuff. Please hug all your pets tonight for me!
