As some of you know Sooty has cancer on her face and we have decided not to operate due to the type of cancer and the liklieness that it will spread. We have been spoiling her as usual and making the most of the time we have left with her. I am finding it really difficult watching her going through this. Her face is swelling up and she has a little sore where she has been scratching at it, I have put some antiseptic powder on it so that it does not get infected. She is still eating and drinking and purring (sometimes). The last two nights she has not come to bed as usual with us. Normally she is there at bed time waiting to get under the covers. She was hiding in the office last night, so I carried her to bed, where she stayed for about an hour or so, but then she went again. I love this little girl and it's breaking my heart seeing her go through this. We have been through lots together, relationship break ups, many house moves and I cannot imagine her not being there. I cannot stop thinking about it and getting upset all the time. I know there is nothing anyone can do, but I just wanted to share this, as I am really struggling at the moment.
