Need Hugs

Took Jess to vet today as I had found a lump near one of her teets. Vet found several other smaller lumps and said they are mammory tumors. There is 50/50 chance of them being belign or malignant. They will remove on Friday and send to lab for analysis. Please send OFF hugs and prayers (if you believe in a god) for her. I can't bear to lose someone else I love after losing OH last year and her twin Becky will be lost without her.

Thanks all

Val

Re: Need Hugs

Aw Val , how old is Jess. They could be lipoma, benign fatty tissue lumps which often grow in older dogs.

Sending warm wishes for a favourable outcome to Jess x

Re: Need Hugs

She is 5 Meg and the vet said it is definitely not fatty lumps as the way they feel is wrong for that. He is positive on what he said so I have to believe that. He is very good.

Re: Need Hugs

Oh.. I'm so sorry Val I'll have my fingers crossed for Jess on Friday, *hugs* to you both....

Re: Need Hugs

(((hugs)))

Try not to worry too much Val. Mammary tumours can very often be treated very successfully and if Jess is only 5 her age is on her side. Has Jess been spayed?

Re: Need Hugs

Lots of Hugs to you and Jess Hope everything goes well on your next visit to the vets...

Re: Need Hugs

No he is going to spay at the same time as he thinks it should be done. A long op on Friday for Jess She was so good today. She jumps on the table herself as larger dogs don't like being lifted much and she let the vet feel round everywhere without a murmur. My lovely brave girl.

Re: Need Hugs

Oh Val, what a worry Sending my warm (((((hugs))))) to you and Jess, and lots of best wishes for Friday.

Re: Need Hugs

I'm sorry to hear about Jess, Val.
I'm sending ((hugs)), lots of them, for you, Jess and Becky.
I hope the news is good.

Re: Need Hugs

As you say Val your vet is very positive and I don't think he would do the spay if he didn't think her long term outlook was good. Best wishes to you and Jess for Friday. I hope you will let us know how she progresses.
