First of all I want to send out a huge heartfelt thank you to everyone who took the time to send messages of love and encouragement when I posted recently on facebook about finding a scary growth on my girl Louisiana. The outpouring of support was truly touching and many of you have followed up asking for updates. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
So here' the update. The report from the vet was inconclusive and didn't show either a definitive presence cancer or fatty cells. In one way that's great but it's also a little unsettling because it's so vague. The advice was, that based on her being 15 years old and the lab results, it was better to leave well enough alone for the time being and not proceed to surgery at this point. Dr. Santero, my amazing vet from Brander Veterinary Hospital said that even with removal of the growth there were no guarantees of beating any would be cancer. Balancing that with her age, the delicate nature of the area where the growth is and the discomfort the surgery would cause her I agreed.
I changed up her diet and she's happily eating again and seems to be in great spirits. Definitely a lot slower and sleeping more than she used to, but still doing pretty great all things considered.
I took her out this past weekend to Point Isabelle in Richmond CA to hang with with friends - Joy, Jules, Olive and whole Bianchi clan. It was Olive's birthday!! Louisiana had a blast running around and it's was great to see her having so much fun again. After that we stopped in San Rafael at Double Rainbow for a little afternoon ice cream. That's where I shot this portrait of her ;-) Without too much gushing I guess it's pretty obvious, I'm crazy about her!!!
Thanks again for showing so much concern for a member of my family, I really appreciate the good vibes!!!
Much love to you all - Michael |
