If she can recover, she'll experience a happy life.

With what I'm reading about people contributing and what he said, it sounds optimistic, doesn't it? I'll be donating tonight after I get home.
Don't be sorry about asking questions. Lady needs surgery no matter what. If she does not get it, she will die with in a couple of weeks because her spleen will rupture. I had no choice but to make the appointment. If it is not cancer, she will be fine he said. He also said there can be two different types of cancer, I can't remember the names though, sorry. One is just in the mass in her spleen and one is worse causing little tumors all over her abdomen, it that is the case, she will be put down. I am staying positive, I have to. I pray to the dear lord....or whoever is up there, that it is not cancer. I wish he did x-rays. Now it is just a waiting game after surgery. She goes in to the vet's at 8:20 am. I will find out what time he is going to do the surgery. I do know she will be there over night. He is hopeful, but he said it can go either way and he just wanted to be sure I was prepared for it. I'm not, but this is part of rescue. No matter how many times death enters my house, I am never prepared. Prayers are needed, that is all we can do. I am a tad closer to the amount we need, we are up to $310.00 last time I called the vet. They are closed now, so I am hoping more people call and donate tomorrow and the next day. Thanks everybody.
