Nebo needs prayers

[wolf_Q]

I posted last night about the lump I found on Nebo's leg (see the thread here (http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?t=94306) ) and I made an appointment to take him to the vet today.

The vet said it could be other things, but it looked like a mast cell tumor, which is cancerous. I have an appointment on Thursday to get it removed, then it has to be sent off for testing.

Please please please pray for Nebo, I don't know what I will do if something happens to him....he's my life, I can't even put into words how much I love my boy...he's only 3 years old... :( :( :(

[lv4dogs]

Oh poor Nebo boy. Luckily though even if it is that you caught it early and as long as they remove it all he should be just fine! But hopefully its non-cancerous. They do have non cancerous mast cell tumors, one of my ferrets had one and Nanook has had a few benign mast cell tumors. Good luck sweet Bebo boy!

[k9krazee]

:( Prayers on the way for Nebo!!!!!! Hope its nothing serious (((Hugs))))

[finn's mom]

I'll be thinking of Nebo and hoping that it's nothing serious.

[JenBKR]

Oh no! Prayers and good thoughts on the way for poor Nebo!

[.sarah]

Poor guy :( I hope that it's not cancerous.

Mandy had two cancerous tumors removed. One in June '04 and then in July '04 she was back on the operating table because another one had appeared right next to where the first was removed. The vet took out enough skin around it that the tumors did not reappear, and Mandy is now cancer-free :D

In the other thread you mentioned it was on his leg, though, and that seems like a tough spot to remove as much skin as they did on Mandy. I really hope that they can get around it and stretch little Bebo's skin and remove the cancerous tissue.

BUT hopefully it's not cancerous. I'm sure he'll be fine. He is so young and you caught it so early that he'll probably be just fine! :)

[CountryWolf07]

Amy, good thoughts & prayers are sending out to you.... I am sure Nebo will be OK! :)

[RobiLee]

Prayers, prayers and more prayers coming your way. I know how worried you must be, Amy. Its going to be ok. You and Nebo will both be in my thoughts and prayers. I'll be waiting for your update report.

{{{HUGS FOR YOU BOTH}}}

[Husky_mom]

Nebo you´re always in my thoughts, hope it´s nothing, hugs for both

[areias]

Oh no...good thoughts being sent your way. Just hope that its not cancerous..poor baby. :(:(

[Kfamr]

Oh my gosh, Amy.... I am in tears. It LOOKS cancerous, which hopefully it isn't. :( You know how much you and your boy mean to me. Please call me if you need me... I'm here.

[Glacier]

We have all paws crossed for Nebo.

Paxil has had mast cell cancer. She had a massive tumor on her back leg when I got her. It was a grade 2 tumor, the least predictable of the mast cells. It was removed on Valentine's Day 05. 10 days later she was back in harness and she's been fine ever since.

Mast cell tumors are very common. One of the hallmarks of a MCT is that the bump will change size, even with in the course of a day they can go from big to small and back again. Treatment is generally just to remove them. No chemo or that kind of stuff. They do often reoccur. I give Paxil a full body massage every couple days. She enjoys it and it gives me a chance to make sure there are no new lumps and bumps!

Nebo's young and from the looks of that pic in the other thread, you caught this very early. Those are both very strong points in his favor! I'm sure he'll be fine.

Some links I used when Paxil was sick:

[wolfie]

Nebo is in my thoughts. :( *hugs* to you and Nebo. I hobe the results come back okay.

[ComedyDevil]

Prayers being sent Nebo's way :)

[K9soul]

Amy, I am so sorry to see this. How frightened you must be, at even the chance of it being something serious. Nebo will most definitely be in my prayers. Hugs to you and Nebo. :(

[Vela]

I'm sorry to hear. I hope it's nothing serious but even if it's a mast cell don't panic. My Ginger had one removed on her neck about 2.5 years ago and she has been fine. Most of the time they are localized and can be removed completely. I will send prayers for Nebo that it's nothing serious and even if it is a mast cell they they remove it with clean margins. Most often, especially if caught early, they can be removed without furhter harm. Try to hold onto that hope and don't despair, I know it's scary I've been there. Good luck and let us know.

[Vermontcat]

Poor Nebo! :(
Prayers on the way for you, sweet blue-eyed boy!
Hugs to you, Amy and Nebo too!

[ramanth]

Owie Nebo!! Fingers and paws crossed that it's a minor bump.

I just discovered a fatty cyst/bump under Kia's skin the other day. Lumps and bumps are so scary!

[Cookiebaker]

Oh no! Not Nebo! :( Amy, I am so sorry that this is happening, and I am hoping for the very very very best! I will definitely keep you guys in my thoughts and prayers, and be checking in often.

{{Hugs}}

[Logan]

Amy, I will send positive thoughts and prayers for you and Nebo. I hope that this tumor will be contained and Nebo will be 100% after it is removed.

Amy,
Hugs and Prayers coming your way!!!!! {{{AMY}}}

We are here for you .......... always.

Love to Bebo Boy

[Kater]

Oh Amy, what a startling discovery. I can imagine how terribly nervous you must be feeling. :( I don't how comforting it would be to tell you that we do a lot of lump removals and that mast cell sarcomas are quite common. Hopefully your vet reinforced that finding it early is really to your advantage. However, even with all the facts I know it is a scary time. Nebo is most certainly in my thoughts and prayers!

[gemini9961]

Amy, all of my wishes for Nebo and you right now in this trying time.

[Jadapit]

You and Nebo will be in my thoughts and prayers. (((Hugs)))

(((HUGS)))

[dukedogsmom]

I hope it's nothing bad. But remember, even if it is, there's good chances it can be treated. And don't forget about PT prayers. I'd be willing to pay into a Get Well Nebo fund, for sure! I really hope he'll be fine. I know exactly how you feel about your special dog.

Om Amy...I'm so sorry!!
I pray for you and Bebo.

[wolf_Q]

Thank you everyone, I really appreciate it. It's wonderful knowing there's so many people that genuinely care about my Nebo boy. I'm hoping for the best, but still worrying all the time. My friend, Michele (Cisco's mom) brought over flowers and chocolates last night because she knew how upset I was, she's so sweet. Nebo was happy to have Cisco come over to play too.


When will you know anything back from the doctor?

He goes in Thursday morning for the operation to remove the lump. I won't be able to pick him up until 4-5:30. They have to send it off for testing, so I probably will not know until another week or so. :(

[Denyce]

I am so very sorry you are having to go through this. Sequoia and I will give an extra prayer and a woooo for Nebo this evening. He is young and strong...all the positive energy we can muster is coming your way.

Denyce

[beeniesmom]

Ohhh no, I hope it's nothing.

Aaawwww...poor puppers :(
I hope it's nothing, sending prayers your way to you and nebo!

[lizbud]

I've been away for a few days & just today heard that Nebo was
having a problem. You must be very worried. :( I do hope the Vet removes
it completely & Nebo gets better quickly. Prayers for Nebo.

[My Peanuts]

OMG Amy I'm worried for you. Prayers are on the way that Nebo is ok and this all turns out to be nothing.

[joanofark]

Oh Nebo! Like your mommy- I worry a lot!

Baby Nebo, Sadie and I love you LOTS!! And you be in our prayers througout the day(s), and nights.

Keep us updated, Amy! ! {{{HUGS}}} ;)

[pnance]

Prayers for Nebo and all paws crossed, hopefully it's benign.

Bear had a huge mast cell tumor on his abdomen when we originally got him. The lump was probably a little larger than a baseball, but no one had bothered to check it so who knows how long it had been there. :mad: The vet removed it and pathology determined it was an extremly aggressive form, in addition, the margins she was able to get were not the recommended standard to prevent reoccurence. We discussed chemo but decided the best course was to keep a close eye on the area. He still gets benign fatty cysts all over, which we have to have checked each time a new one crops up, but he's been cancer free for over 4 years now with no problems from it.

[KYS]

Will try to wait patiently for the results.
Sending good thoughts and hugs to Nebo.

[Tollers-n-Dobes]

Poor Nebo (and you!) :( Hopefully everything will be alright, I'll be thinking of both of you...

[ChrisH]

Many prayers and positive thoughts on the way for your special Nebo boy.

[Dixieland Dancer]

I haven't been around at all in the past few months due to an over worked schedule and I drop in to find out the infamous Nebo is having surgery. :( Amy, you know how special he is in my heart. I will offer prayers that this is not cancer and that our special Husky boy will be back to his wonderful self real soon.

{{{{{HUGS}}}}} to you also across the miles. You are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

[senorita02]

Oh i was so sad to see this thread, i will be keeping Nebo in my thougths, we just had an incident with Senorita as well, with 2 lumps, she had one that was getting bigger and bigger, so we had them removed and biopsied as well, it turns out she had 2 follicular cyst, lets pray that Nebos are similar and just simply need to be removed, Let us know what the Doc says.

[Kfamr]

Waiting and wondering...
I hope it's nothing!

[Corinna]

Praying for Nebo and waiting for Amy to let us know.

Amy I'm just seeing this and I do hope that the vet says it's nothing to worry about.
Good vibes coming your and Nebo's way.

Love ya

[sisterdog]

I'm hoping and praying that the lump is benign. Nebo is one of my favorite PT doggies. He's such a special boy.

[Vette]

:eek: I just found this thread.

all paws and fingers crossed for Neebster!
i hope its nothing but just a calis or something like that

[wolf_Q]

Nebo is home...poor guy, looking at him makes me so sad. :( They must have really knocked him out, he could hardly walk out of the vet. He's been whining a bit too, I'm sure his leg hurts him. He can't run around at all for at least 2 weeks..and Nebo looooves to run. I have to make sure it doesn't get wet either, which is going to be fun with all the snow. :/ I won't know the results of what the lump is for a few days, keep those prayers coming..I'm hoping it's benign.

Attached are a couple pictures of him (warning the last one is graphic)

[captain]

Oh Darlin Bee Butt .............. {{{gentle hugs}}} to you ..... and to Amy too ...

[Vette]

Awww.....
poor dude.

*huggies* to the both of you

[.sarah]

Poor little man :( I know you'll get better, Nebo, but I'll be thinking of you just in case :) I hope he's able to walk without hurting himself soon ... that's such an akward place to have a tumor removed.

[Crikit]

Awww my poor buddy bebo, I'll keep the thoughts coming Amy.

[Cinder & Smoke]

http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/smile.gif

He does look a little "spazzed out" ...

http://petoftheday.com/talk/attachment.php?attachmentid=25255

But the On Duty Nurse seems to be watching over him!

Did they give you an E-collar or one of the "rigid collars" to keep him from
"bothering" the leg?

As for keeping it "dry" - unless the snow is that deep, he shouldn't get it too wet
as long as he's being walked on a leash.

I'd try some Vet Wrap or an elastic bandage - just put several layers on before
he goes out - then take the wrap off as sooon as he comes back in.

Was the Vet able to remove enough of a "margin" around the bump?
Did the Vets say they were encoraged by the results?

We'll keep the Prayer Candles lighted till we know more.

Feel Better SOON, Nebo!!
http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/wink.gif

[wolfie]

I'll be thinking about him, hoping it isn't serious.

That picture is so sweet, with Sydney looking over him.

[Cincy'sMom]

Continued prayers for Nebo.

[Ginger's Mom]

Aww, poor Nebo. It's sweet though, Sydney does seem to be concerned. I am still sending out good thoughts and prayers for you and our big handsome Nebo.

[tricollie4me]

Awww...poor baby!! Adding my heartfelt wishes that he recovers speedily and that the news from the lab is all good...will be watching for updates. Have a good rest now, dear Nebo! So many hearts are pulling for you!

[anna_66]

Awww Beebo, poor little dude. He sure does look "out of it" in the pictures, but I see nurse Sydney is on the job taking care of him;)
That leg really looks like a big "OUCHIE". Hope he leaves it alone so you don't have to put the cone on him.
When he's feeling a little better, give him some big {{{HUGS}}} from me and tell him I love him:)

And of course I'll keep him and you in my prayers that the testing turns out benign.
Lots of {{{{HUGS}}}} for you too Amy.

[chocolatepuppy]

Poor Nebo. :( Amy, I will keep Nebo in my prayers that his tests come back good news.

[slleipnir]

Poor sweet bebo! :( That looks like a big mean "cut" you have! It's good though that you got him in right away...even IF it was something, seeing you got it so quick I can't see it being serious! Let us know! I'll be thinking of that handsome boy till we hear the results!

[finn's mom]

Wow, that is quite an incision. Poor guy. It was hard keeping Finn still after his neuter...good luck with Nebo's leg. You'll have to wrap it in socks or something to keep it dry when you go outside. ;) I hope the tests come back in his favor. That hurts just looking at it.

[K9karen]

Aw, poor baby boy. That's a huge deep incision. Did they give him any painkillers? It's gotta hurt. Sidney looks so adorable checking up on his buddy.
I'm praying with all my might, too, that Neb's going to be fine. So many prayers, so many lit candles, so much love for our special, loving boy.

[RobiLee]

Ohhh Nebo and Amy, I wish I was there so bad so I could give you both a big hug. I will keep on saying prayers for Nebo and waiting anxiously for the test results.

{{{HUGS}}}

[shais_mom]

poor you and poor Nebo!!!
Hugs to you both!

[krazyaboutkatz]

Amy, I just now saw this thread. :o
Poor Nebo. :( I sure hope that he makes a full and quick recovery and that the test results show that it's nothing serious. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent your way. Please take care. ((((HUGS))))

[cloverfdx]

Nebo will continue to be in my thoughts {{Hugs}}. Feel better soon Nebo.

[k9krazee]

He still looks out of it :( Good thoughts still being sent to Nebo, poor guy, that is quite the battle wound there.

[ramanth]

Oh Nebo. :( That looks painful. But you be sure to leave those stitches alone! And he looks so tired. Poor guy.

Still thinking of him and hoping it's benign!

[lv4dogs]

Poor Nebo boy. That does look like a long & deep incision but if they thought it might be cancerous that is good, the more they get out around it the better the chances of it returning.

You can tape a plastic grocery bag on his leg when he goes out in the snow.

I hope he wakes up a little more soon, that anesthesia can take a toll on a husky. Mylo (my ex's husky who I told you before looks a lot like Nebo) was the same way when he went under. It would take him forever to wake up.

Get better soon Nebo boy. Be a good boy & listen to your mother she's doing whats best for you. I hope it not cancerous & that you never have any problems in the future! We love you big Bebo boy!

[Corinna]

Amy , hugs and prayers out to the two of you. Did the vet give any idea about it?

[K9soul]

Ohhh that looks ouchie Nebo :(. I know Mommy is taking super good care of you and pampering you like only a Mommy can. Just be a good boy now and no running around, you rest now and get healed up okay? You continue to be in my prayers, handsome, beloved Nebo :)

[elizabethann]

I am glad he is home. Now he can begin to recuperate and heal. Please give him a big kiss for me. Get well Nebo.

[pnance]

Glad to see Nebo's home. It looks like they took a pretty big area which is good, hopefully it means they managed to get clean "margins" if it is cancerous. Continued prayers that it's benign

[lizbud]

Wow Nebo sweetie, that incision looks big. Hopw they got all the bad stuff out and you heal up quickly. It sure is in an inconvient place to keep dry.
Maybe you could clear him a path in the yard for outties.

[Lobodeb]

Ouch! I wasn't expecting the incision to be that big! Poor, sweet Nebo!

I'm glad he's home, that Sydney is keeping such close tabs on him and that the bump is gone. More prayers on the way that its nothing serious.

[Jadapit]

Oh, poor baby!! You and Nebo are still in my thoughts and prayers. Give that sweet boy a kiss for me.

[countrycowgirl]

Amy I am so sorry that I just know saw this! poor Nebo! :( you guys are in my thoughts and prayers I hope that everything turns out okay.... please if you need anything PM me or email me at [email protected] ...give nebo some extra hugs and kisses from me

[Husky_mom]

Nebo baby.......1,000 kisses in your boo boo, hope it heals fast so you can run as always, Amy you are also in my thoughts, you had a hard time also, hugs to both

[Dixieland Dancer]

Continuing prayers until the results come back for the sweetest Husky boy I know! Big Hugs to Nebo are being sent long distance.

[pitc9]

Oh Amy, you and Beeboo are in my every thought.... I pray for good news.
{{Hugs}}to you both!

[cyber-sibes]

Aw, poor Bebo, that looks like an awful place for a big ol' cut - Syd looks so cute lookin in on him. Prayers for promising results on the way, and ((((hugs)))) to you & Nebo, Amy.

[popcornbird]

:( Oh Amy...I just saw this thread. Poor Nebo. Prayers that its nothing serious.

[dukedogsmom]

Oh Amy, this makes me so sad so I can imagine how you feel. Poor Nebo. Give him lots of hugs from me and I pray so much that it's benign. We love you Nebo! Get well really soon.

[wolf_Q]

Thank you everyone, Nebo definitely appreciates all the prayers for him. :) The vet wasn't there when I picked him up, but the receptionist said that he was happy with the results of the surgery. I don't know the results of the blood test or what the tumor is yet though. *worried*

They gave me a plastic thing to put over his leg when he goes out. It seems to work ok...the snow is deep enough in places to reach the stitches but they haven't really gotten wet with that thing on. No e-collar, but he has been good...he's licked them a few times but he stops if I tell him too. I've been bringing him to work with me just in case. They did give me pain meds to give him for a few days. He seemed ok today, just a bit tired still.

[Cinder & Smoke]

He seemed ok today,
just a bit tired still.

:)

"Tired" is OK! ;)

We're all Praying for good lab results!

Feel Better, Nebo!!
;)

[anna_66]

I'm very glad to hear he's doing ok today and not in any pain.
Don't worry Amy, I'm sure everything will be alright. {{{HUGS}}}

[Kfamr]

What a good boy you are, Bebo! Kiara wanted me to let you know that she sent you a letter in the mail?? I have no clue what it is but look out for it!

{{HUGS}} to you both....

[chrissycat21]

I just saw this thread.

Nebo and you will be in my thoughts. Prayers that this isn't anything serious and that Nebo will soon be able to enjoy the snow. :(

[Daisy and Delilah]

Take it easy Nebo. We're thinking of you handsome man. We want to hear you're all better so Mom can stop worrying about you :)

[tz1]

Good thoughts for NEBO!!!

[dab_20]

Nebo, thats quite the incision. I really hope you start to feel better, boy!! soft ((HUGS)) to you! Still hope it's nothing serious.

[CountryWolf07]

Awwwww Nebo!! Sweetie, just stay on that pillow-bed.. and you'll be okay.. :)

Amy I'll be thinking of you - I'm sure Nebo will be OK! :)

[PJ's Mom]

Poor Nebo! Amy you must be sick with worry. :( I'm sure your boy will be just fine. :)

[wolf_Q]

He is apparently feeling much better.....:rolleyes:

I've been taking him outside with a bag taped over his leg (he can't get it wet and there's a few inches of snow in the yard) and on a leash. He has tried to go and get his ball for me to throw for him, he really wants to play, but I'm not supposed to let him run. I gave Reggie and Sydney a bath today, and since it's cold and snowy outside I put them on a leash to go potty so they wouldn't try to stay out long. Well, I was standing on the deck with the door open a bit to let them out and Nebo shoved his way past and took off at full speed running around the yard! :eek: He did not want to come in either, so yeah I'm sure the neighbors enjoyed watching me chase him and slide around in the snow in my slippers....;) I hope he'll be ok now that he got it wet, at least he didn't pop the stitches open running like that!

[Corinna]

Nebo ,you silly boy , don't you know you aren't supposed to run yet? Glad he's feeling better.

[slleipnir]

Awww, such a nawtee Bebo! I don't really blame him though..he probably is wondering why he isn't allowed to go play. So glad to hear that he is so lively though ;) Get better soon Bebo so you can go for a nice long run!

[RobiLee]

Ok, I'm giggling! I would have loved to have seen you out there in your slippers trying to get Bebo back inside..lol. I'll bet he had a blast and was in play mode;). Glad to hear that his leg isn't bothering him. Still keeping you both in my thoughts and prayers and waiting for those results. The waiting is the absolute worse! Hang in there. I'm sure everything is going to be just fine.

[Crikit]

Now Bebo, I'm glad you're feeling like running around and all that but you should really listen to your vet you silly boy, after all you don't want to have to back there for something silly like getting restitched.

Amy have you tried using vet wrap? Not sure how much good it would do but it's worth a shot.

[Ginger's Mom]

Glad to hear he is feeling so much better. That has to help make you feel somewhat better. Now you will just have to figure out ways to keep him entertained until he can really play again. Still keeping the good thoughts and prayers going for Nebo.

[Cinder & Smoke]

He is apparently feeling much better.....http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/rolleyes.gif

... the door open a bit to let them out and
Nebo shoved his way past and took off at full speed running around the yard! http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/eek.gif
He did not want to come in either ...


Glad he's feelin better! :D

He reminds me of my RB http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/frown.gif Shepherd/Husky Shadow when she
broke the outside toe on her hind leg ...
She *limped around* on 3 legs whenever she thought I could see her ...
but often came inside with the "baggie" protecting the bandage all trashed & torn http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/confused.gif

I finally found out how the baggie got so abused ....

She'd hobble & limp out of sight ~
THEN Rip, Run & Dash on all FOURS behind the house!

When I'd call her back in - she'd RUN (on all Four) to just out of sight in
the front yard - then tuck up the "sore paw" and HOBBLE into sight and
up the front steps.

She milked that "sore" paw for months - long after the White Coat
assured me she was completely healed.

Nebo you behave yourself! When I had Ginger's removed I had to wrap her neck with a maxi pad and an ace bandage becuse she kept after it and cracker was just a baby and kept pulling it off. SHe finaly ended up popping all the stitches but thankfully she healed up really well in the end. I am sure he will heal with and you'll never know it was there.

Heal up fast Nebo so you can go play and stop worrying your mom!

[dab_20]

Nebo, I am glad your feeling better and healing, but you need to be a good boy in the process!! lol, silly boy.

[cloverfdx]

Nawtee boy Nebo ;). Glad to hear he is feeling better Amy, i can just picture the 2 of you outside "playing" chasey lol.

Good vibes still on the way {{Hugs}}.

[Daisy and Delilah]

Awwwww!! Nebo, you're such a character buddy :) Take it easy and stay off that sore paw. Be careful Amy. Don't fall in the yard and hurt yourself. Thoughts and prayers still coming to you from T, D and D, from Florida :D

[king2005]

Silly Nebo :)

When Max was stabbed & had to have his dew toe removed (the other side was removed at the same time) The vet kept him doped up for 2 weeks. I had to carry all 80p of him to go for his walks so he would potty. We kept him tied up to the big fluffy chair, just incase he felt like walking around. He had a lot of damage to his leg, so it was soo importants to keep him off his legs until it was healed. He had to wear bright orange banadges for a month, he looked like a race horse & got so much attention from people in the park ehhe

[pitc9]

Glad to hear he's feeling better! It's always so hard to keep them from goofing off!

[RobiLee]

Hi Amy and Nebo,

I'm still thinking about you guys and sending out big hugs.

[pnance]

Glad to hear he's feeling better... :) Sounds like your going to have your hands full keeping him quiet...I had he same problem with Nikka after her hip surgery. The vet said keep her quiet and off it for 2 weeks :eek: The first couple of days were fine...she had enough drugs in her she was fairly sleepy all the time. But, as soon as those tapered off she was out and running the yard. We put a sock on her foot with a small ping pong ball in it to force her to use only 3 legs when she went out potty (she won't go on a leash... :rolleyes: ). She'd always go around the house where I couldn't see her from the deck and come back with the sock off running on all 4's. 2 weeks we battled this, I was so thrilled when the vet gave the all clear to let her use that leg again. I took everything off and let her go....and watched as she hopped around on 3 legs....2 weeks of battle and now that she's given the all clear she won't use it. ;) ....It took me another 2 weeks before I could get her to use that leg.

[ramanth]

Nebo, you goofy boy! You're supposed to be taking it easy! Take advantage of it. ;) :D

[My Peanuts]

Nebo is such a goofy boy. You think that's bad. When Jimmy first had his heartworm treatment it was very important that he didn't run for 6 weeks! So I had a 1 year old (Morty), a JRT wild maniac (Harley), and Sylvia(ok the last one is a bad example of a highly active dog) running around and I had to keep the new guy on a leash. It was so hard, especially when he saw squirrels in the yard. Impossible! But we got through it.

Prayers are still coming for Nebo and you. No matter what it is there are a lot of options.

[wolf_Q]

Great news guys....your prayers worked!! :D The vet called today and said it was benign (not cancerous)......I think he said it was a hystiocytoma (sp?)....I'm sooooo happy!! *phew* That's a HUGE sigh of relief for sure! :D :D
