It is treatable but there is no cure. Basically, its cancer in the lymphatic system. With chemo, and steriods... most have about 1 - 2 years depending on how well they respond and how advanced it is. There are exceptions to the rule... my clinic treated a dog who made it 5 years after his diagnosis. I also have a friend whos cat was diagnosed with it at 6 months old. They told her that with treatment she had 6 months to live... she will be 3 years old soon. She has been in remission for about a year and a half.
They don't know for sure that is it, if that is determined we will go that route of course, but since Sunday he has had 6 different diseases, so I can't be sure of anything right now we have to wait for 3 weeks for a retest of his kidney functions etc. I am going to hope for the best I just lost my

to cancer in Sept.

Helen when they did Cammies they flushed them for 2 days then redid them the Values that is, they were almost half from the first time. I have to take her back tomorrow she wants to check them again before the 2 weeks are up, beings that she isnt eating good on her own she said she must not be feeling very good, plus she had those steriods wed and they usually help. So were going tomorrow at 1:30
I hope there not way up again

How is the little chap doing at the moment? Has he improved anymore? Is he still being a snuggle bug? I am still thinking of you both and sending lots of good vibes. Its about two weeks to go now until he sees the vet again isn't it? I pray that it all goes well. Update me on how you are both getting on!
for you both.

Thanks so much for asking...he's not as clingy, he doesn't have to be on top of me as much, now he wants to lay next to me, but before it was like having an infant, poor baby
I think he feels better, he has 2 more days on the antinbiotic, and in about 2 weeks he goes for a retest of his kidney values. I am hoping and praying everything is ok!

Update on Joey: Joey goes to the Cancer Doc on Monday April 30th. We are hoping and praying he does not have cancer, but we will do whatever needs to be done for him.
