I missed the call from my vet today which is just as well because the results aren't good at all. Here is what she e-mailed to me:

Hi Tracey,

The biopsy for Sunny is attached, and it indicates that he has squamous cell carcinoma. The prognosis for this disease is not good, usually months. The tumor tends to grow quiet large and is destructive. We could consider piroxicam, which is a NSAID that supposedly decreases the rate of growth, but it is metabolized by the kidneys and may make it worse. We can talk about it more.

I'm devastated. I hope to have more good quality time with Sunny than my vet predicts. I was already planning on taking time off between the Christmas and New Years and also the first week of Jan. so at least I'll get to spend some more time at home with him and the rest of my furkids. Thanks for all of your support.
