Well, we are home. Dr. Whalen was so nice. He did a fecal on her and found round and whip worms and Coccidea. The worms are being treated by Panacur and the Coccidea will be treated with Albon in a few days. Dr. Whalen felt her stomach and shook his had in dissappointment. Lady has a tumor on her spleen. This is why she does not eat very much and why she is anemic (blood was taken and results come in tomorrow). She needs surgery, it is set up for tomorrow. With out it, she will die with in a couple of weeks. The vet gave me an estimate. The surgery will cost $933.50, but they are contributing $100.00 out of a fund they have called The Lobo Fund. So that brings our estimate to $833.50, providing everything goes well. Dr. Whalen said she has a 50/50 chance of it being cancer, but there is no way to tell until the the biopsy comes back five days after surgery. I have to come up with at least half by tomorrow. I told him I get paid Friday and he said I can come in on Friday with the $185.00 that I still owe him, but he needs something up front for the surgery then he will work with me for the rest. He said after surgery and she recovers they will do x-rays to see if there is anything in her chest, but surgery is the top priority. I have put a request into Pit Bull Rescue Central. They donate up to $250.00. I am also getting things together for IMOM, but since I am a rescue and do not have our 501c3 I may not be approved for that.

Well, I just wanted to let everybody know about Lady. Please say lots of prayers. Right now my head is spinning trying to find ways to pay for this, but it needs to be done. Thanks for listening. I will post more when I know more.
