    Just received the lab results back re Belle's tumor, which was removed last week. Intermediate Grade Spindle Cell Sarcoma, low mitotic rate, unlikely to have spread, low risk of it returning, and there were clear margins. Just need to watch the area for any issues. Incision site is healing well; still using e-collar, or else she licks it.

    Wonderful news! And that's great that Belle is healing well.

    Glad to deliver that hug and kiss, lol.

    At this point, Belle is back to her normal self. No hair yet on the patch, but it is not sore and we both ignore it.
