Thread: Kia at the Whitecoats - Lymphoma

    Hope everything goes as well as it can, spoil the heck you of her in the time you have left. Lady turned a terminal cancer diagnosis into another year or so, so, as others have said, the 3 weeks is a guess.

    It's difficult to think of anything really comforting to say at a time like this, but you and Kia will be in my prayers. May her final days be comfortable, peaceful, and happy. Try to stay bright and happy while she is with you, so that she sees the happiness that she had with you, and not the sadness that you now are experiencing.

    I saw this on facebook and it's just devastating news.

    I hope Kia beats the odds and if she gets any prednisone to help her appetite, she should be enjoying all the great food you spoil her with!

    I am very sorry to hear this news about Kia. It is hard to realize that your beautiful girl would ever get old. :( Our pet's only fault, not living long enough.
    I hope & pray that Kia has more happy, peaceful days with you.

    Kia has been hanging in there. I had friends from out of town visit and we took Kia to one of her favorite parks for a photoshoot. It was great seeing her perked up and enjoying the smells.

    Kia still stays hydrated and goes outside to eliminate however she doesn't have the strength to get up on her own and can no longer climb the steps without assistance. When I get her up on her feet her walk is now more like a drunken swagger. All food has to be hand fed or the bowl brought to her. She appears to be in good spirits otherwise. I think she's mostly frustrated that her limbs won't go where she wants them to.

    I don't think it'll be long now.

    Can you rig a sling for her back end so she can walk with assistance for now? Give her a hug from me!

    I don't mind assisting and carrying her but I have to ask myself what kind of life is that? It's the hard questions that stink.

    Absolutely, I know your pain. I was just thinking that might give her a boost emotionally.

    It might. Right now she squirms and has this, 'ugh, so embarrassing' attitude. Stubborn to the end.
