I am sorry to hear about Suger. Sending thoughts and prayers to both of you.
HUGS! I went to the other thread to read about Marlin - I hope some sort of sedative helps!
And dear Sugar...just too stupidly sad and unfair...sending love you you and her. I know you will be sharing lots of love. She has a great home, the best she could have found.:love:
How old are your dogs? I don't come to this side often, but I seem to recall there is quite an age range.
Wishing Sugar many pain-free and happy loving days with you.:)
Candace, Sugar will turn age 15 years on May 1. Marlin, don't have an exact birthday so I use the date he arrived here as a foster, he will be age 14 years on Aug 2.
The others are a bit younger, Lacey is 9; Tasha is 7 and Willy is 8.
I'm so very sorry. :(
What Moosmom said! :love:
A candle, too... http://www.gratefulness.org/candles/...g&cid=15886351
Aw, thank you for the candle, Elyse.
And thank you, each and every one of you, for the support and caring messages. I haven't posted much except for updates; but I read and re-read what you have written to us. It means so much.
Maybe those pills will help extent Sugars life & slow down the cancer. If she is eating & going on her walks she can still enjoy life to fullest. Take each second at a time Sugar & enjoy those pats, walks, & the love of your humans & doggie friends.
Thanks, Bonny.
There is no chance of a cure or of remission. This is a fast, aggressive cancer.
Palladia has a 37% success rate in slowing its growth. IF Sugar is in that 37%, she may have as much as 90 days, certainly not longer. The specialist is making it all clear to me, he says he doesn't want to "sugar coat" it, there is nothing good in this sort of cancer. And if we are in the 63% where the chemo pill has no effect, we will be lucky to see 4 weeks. :(
I've "spoken" with someone on FB who lost her bichon to this last year. She chose not to do the Palladia, just keep him comfortable. She says it was all so fast she could barely adjust to the diagnosis, and he was gone.
Sandie, you and Sugar are in my thoughts. Sending love and hugs, and hope Sugar will be comfortable and painfree. :love: :love:
Really sorry to hear this, Sandie. :( Poor girl. We all know you'll do everything you can to keep Sugar as comfortable as she can be :love:
I'm really sorry to hear how bad it is. Please give her hugs for me and spoil her as much as you can until the end.
Poor Sugar, I'm sorry the prognosis is so bad. I know she will have a wonderful time with you while she can. (((HUGS))) and you're both in my thoughts :love:
I am sorry to hear about Sugar. You are both in my thoughts and prayers.:love:
Thinking lots of loving thoughts for you all Sandie. Kiss Sugar for me:love:
So very sorry .. keeping Sugar and you in my thoughts and prayers. {{hugs}}
