    The tumors are cancerous, and quite aggressive. We have the option of surgery(if x-rays clear), but there is a 95 percent chance it will return. In the same place, or worse. It's likely she has roughly a year either way.

    I'm not sure what to do right now, honestly. I do not want to put her through surgery for no reason. I'm going to get a second opinion with the vet Michelle recommended. If he agrees that there is a 95% change of recurrence, my heart is telling me to leave her as is, as happy as possible for as long as possible.

    Today, we hung out outside:
