Yikes!

uhoh, sounds like I am in trouble! Sorry folks, I didn't mean to alarm you. Those who know me well have gotten use to me MIA now and then. At least I think they have.

I took some extra days to go visit my bro in Dallas, then got home midweek, and received some distressing news. Before I left, my pup had some oral surgery done, and a biopsy was performed and sent in as a precaution. I came home to find that he has developed oral squamos cell carcinoma, a very agressive form of cancer in dogs. I have been dealing with my vet, plus talking to a doggy oncologist the past few days, as well as dealing with the heartache that goes along with it all. This pup is a huge part of my life, and the news really blindsided me.

I will post more later, but after reading the comments, I thought I better let you know that I did not drown, am not languishing in a jail cell, nor did I run off with a hot babe from Brazil........damnit.

I really miss seeing what you all are up to much more than I do posting my own BS, and I will visit soon.

Thanks for your concern, I am touched.

Thanks Brighton, I know you understand how devasting this news is. I am sitting here frustrated right now, because his appt. isn't until Tuesday, and the damn tumor is 3 times the size it was on Thursday. Of course it has to be the weekend.....I have a call in, but really am not expecting to hear from anyone until tomorrow.

I'm saddened to read the news about your pup. I still remember my dog who had cancer, when I was in high school. Feel for you and doggie. Take care
