More good news about Ben. He gained weight (from 8.9 to 9.35 pounds) over the last two weeks. He is responding well to the steroids. He looks better, has a great appetite and is quite active (for an 14 year old). The vet
cannot get a diagnosis without surgery and biopsy. She says we can give him chemo anyway. He either has lymphoma or IBS. She says the chemo will help IBS if it is not cancer. I am very reluctant to do surgery as he is doing better. Any thought on doing chemo?? It would be twice a week and then cutting back to every two months. I hate to put him though any un-necessary misery, but if it is cancer, it needs to be dealt with sooner rather than later.

I'm not sure how to proceed.

Thanks - Scott
