When my dad had cancer, he got prednisone for the last couple of months. It reduced swelling, but pred really boosts the appetite. As Mom said, "He ate like he was going to live forever."

So Barney's great appetite was likely due to the prednisone...and the diabetes and the tumour took all the good nutrition away from our Barn!

I hope your day with Barney is as peaceful as possible. Barney even has a few toasts in the Thursdays cyber-bar in Dog House.

Is Scott going with you?

HUGS and one more kiss on that dear tuxie forehead. (More, if he'll let you! )
