    Thank you all.
    There will be no miracles here, as I feared. It is end stage. There is nothing we can do but sustain quality of life for as long as possible. Prognosis is 3 months to 6 months. Medication is the only option...piroxicam and an antibiotic (Primor 1200). I have been crying all day. I am at a loss.
    A few months ago, she had blood in her urine which was cleared up with antibiotics. The bleeding came back full force this Tuesday evening. Today we had the pneumocystogram and ultrasound done. She is full of tumors. It is unoperable. The vet says that she does not appear to be in pain and that her general overall health is good.
    Our goal is quality of life.
    Save a life, ADOPT!!

    Please give her a gentle kiss from me, Sue. She's such a beautiful girl.

    I know you are beside yourself with worry, but like you said, "Quality of Life", and that's the right approach.

    Hugs to you. Wish I could give you one in person.

    Hi, im new here. I would just like to say my RB bridge sheltie named Hugo had bladder cancer. We had the tumor removed in october of 99 (i think) and they said he probably wont live to see Christmas. He lived a to see 2 Christmas' so dont give up hope. He also had the same symptoms as your dog. The blood in the urine. It also cleared up with antibiotics and came back. I know how you are feeling right now. All i can say is spend as much time with your dog as you can right now. Here is my e-mail if you ever feel the need to talk about it [email protected] also my aim is crayons09. I will have you both in my thoughts and prayers. Don't think about how much time you have, think about the way you will spend what you have.

    This is too sad to even think about. I am so very sorry. You of all people should have been spared another heartache. Shiloh is a strong and brave girl and will do the best she can for her Mommy. May her days be filled with special dispensations from this terrible battle she is fighting. In honor of her fight, let's all realize just how precious the time with our fur kids is.

    Hi, I had to make a name so I could post on your story. You had me crying just thinking about what it was like when my dog died, then thinking about your pain. I know how you feel on losing your best friend. However I don't know the exact circumstances on the illness, but it is hard to go through a death. I wish there was some way I could help you rather than just posting a comment but I do hope this serves as some sort of comfort for you.

    I wish you the best of luck with Shiloh and pray that she continues to bring you joy even after God has called her home. Once God calls her back try to stray from the sad thoughts of not having her, but the happiness of being able to share your life with someone so special. I'm sure she couldn't have asked for a better life than the one she has with you.

    If you ever need to talk feel free to IM me (FiestySheep17). I will keep you in my prayers.
