I'm so sorry, Shir. And angry on your behalf, and on his.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Shir, I am so sorry. And yes, angry on your behalf.
Shir, I am sorry.
Shir, I am so so sorry. Fuck cancer, for real.
Fuck cancer.
I'm so sorry, Shir.

Words just don't seem adequate at this point. Aside from "Fuck Cancer". So, I say, FUCK CANCER! Know you got tons of hugs coming to you from over here.
OK, all of us are back home now.
At this stage it was pointless to take biopsy, but it's probably paranasal sinus cancer, which explains the aggressiveness. After hearing that half of his skull was eaten by that, I didn't have the guts to look at the CT to find out what else is horrid about his situation.
He walked to me, and wagged his tail as usual. But I can't deny that it's not the same dog I've known for the past 10 years anymore. It kills me.
There's not much we can do, but we'll try something with homeopathy. He of course will be on pain killers from now on, to make the rest of his life better as possible. At least we can give him that.
It's just a question of time now.
And to think that three days ago we thought it was an eye infection. My sis began a crusade on the first vet.
Reality sucks.
Shir - I'm so sorry to hear about your dog. I think that dog's are excellent in that you can just make sure that he isn't in pain, give him treats (food or excursions) that he loves and know that he lives in the moment and if he seems happy - he is. (I don't know if this is a comfort - but I have another friend whose 12 year old retriever has cancer and when she feels good - she is 100% happy and it is a joy to see.)
Oh, Shir. Harvey is lying on my wrists, purring his hardest purr for you and your dog. We're so sorry you are having to go through this.
I'm so sorry, Shir.
