I'm leaving work now to go to the hospital to say goodbye in case the surgery they are about to do to try to remove the tumor doesn't go well. They have no way of knowing if the tumor is malignant until they remove it. If it isn't, she will recover fine. If it is, she'll probably have 6-8 weeks of comfortable time before we would have to put her to sleep. They will call me during the surgery if it is so bad that we need to just let her go.

Teppy, it's good to see your fonts. I'm sorry your back has been so bad.
Okay, I'm leaving work now to head to the hospital. Thanks, everyone, for the kind words.

Tons of surgery-ma and not-cancer-ma for Zoe.

Oof, it's been a tough year for Buffistae pets and the people who love them.
Good luck, Zoe!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Compassionately intolerant
Lots of light going out to all the 'ffistas in pain.
Nice to see you Steph. Much relief, both physical and doctor-wise for ita. Soooo much warmth and comfort for Zoe and her family. May the growth be fully contained and passive.
