I found out yesterday that my dog, Cash, has multiple cancerous masses in his spleen. There are a few options, but none of them are good. Chemo is an option, but it’s not one that we want to do. It causes too many side effects and we don’t know how effective it would be. We could also remove his spleen. However, that is extremely dangerous; he may not make it through the surgery and even if he does, it would only give him about 6 more months. Plus, the cancer could spread because it’s in his blood, so the surgery may not be that effective. We’ve decided to play it day by day. We just want him to be comfortable and happy.

I'm a 32 year old married woman who has been dealing with Bipolar disorder since the age of 14. This is all about my life, diagnoses, and treatments. If you have any questions, just ask me. I hope that others with Bipolar Disorder or PTSD can relate to my blog and find it helpful.

  2. I’m so sorry. It is tough to see them sick. I just went through this with Buster and it was hard to let go. You will know when it is the right time so he doesn’t suffer too much. Ash loves you and we do too.

  7. I am very sorry to hear this news. I know it is not easy as I have been in yours shoes not too long ago. Spend as much time with him as you can and take lots of pictures….you will be glad you did later on down the road.
