We have all paws crossed for Nebo.

Paxil has had mast cell cancer. She had a massive tumor on her back leg when I got her. It was a grade 2 tumor, the least predictable of the mast cells. It was removed on Valentine's Day 05. 10 days later she was back in harness and she's been fine ever since.

Mast cell tumors are very common. One of the hallmarks of a MCT is that the bump will change size, even with in the course of a day they can go from big to small and back again. Treatment is generally just to remove them. No chemo or that kind of stuff. They do often reoccur. I give Paxil a full body massage every couple days. She enjoys it and it gives me a chance to make sure there are no new lumps and bumps!

Nebo's young and from the looks of that pic in the other thread, you caught this very early. Those are both very strong points in his favor! I'm sure he'll be fine.

Prayers being sent Nebo's way

I'm sorry to hear. I hope it's nothing serious but even if it's a mast cell don't panic. My Ginger had one removed on her neck about 2.5 years ago and she has been fine. Most of the time they are localized and can be removed completely. I will send prayers for Nebo that it's nothing serious and even if it is a mast cell they they remove it with clean margins. Most often, especially if caught early, they can be removed without furhter harm. Try to hold onto that hope and don't despair, I know it's scary I've been there. Good luck and let us know.

Poor Nebo!
Prayers on the way for you, sweet blue-eyed boy!
Hugs to you, Amy and Nebo too!

Amy, I will send positive thoughts and prayers for you and Nebo. I hope that this tumor will be contained and Nebo will be 100% after it is removed.
