    Sad for Co-Worker, Golden has Cancer

    One of the guys at my work has a Golden, she has been diagnosed with Cancer. Waiting on news from the vet as to how far it has gone and if chemo will help. To top this off his wife is very pregnant with triplets. The birth of their babies will come at about the same time they may be having to say good bye to their fur baby. This is so very sad and unfair. I've asked my fur angels to do what they can to make this next month or so not so difficult for them, would appreciate anything your fur angels could do too.

    That is so sad. I do hope this dog can be helped to beat
    this disease & have more good years with the family. Prayers for
    their sweet girl.

    Thats so sad. Maybe God sent down the triplets in time to comfort her while her golden passes. Prayers and thoughts are on the way for your co-worker.

    That is so very sad. I hope it's not too late for help. I would be devastated. We will pray for him and dog.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    I hate to be the one to bring this up but you need to have your friend ask his vet and the wifes doctor about her being exposed to the dog after chemo.. I don't think pregnant women are suppose to come in contact with chemo through other people or animals.

    Sad new about his dog.. They ARE aprt of the family and it is hard to face when anyone has cancer.

    I'm wondering where you heard this? I know I underwent a whole series
    of chemo treatments and still held down a job. I was exposed to a whole
    bunch of other people & animals and never felt unsafe doing it.

    How terribly heartbreaking
    I do hope there's something that can be done.
