Mylo went to the specialist yesterday. The doctor was very nice and seemed
very educated on FeLV. He said that Mylo's kidney's are very inflamed, and
that he believe's that Mylo has lymphoma and possibly liver disease. This
diagnosis didn't surprise me as I know lymphoma can accompany FeLV. Mylo is
dehydrated even though I give him water throughout the day. He's just not
drinking enough on his own. So the vet said Mylo would have to be
hospitalized, have a blood transfusion, be put on meds and have
chemotherapy. He said that even if I did all those things, Mylo would most
likely only have 4 to 5 months to live. I am glad I went to the appointment
because I wanted a specialist's opinion even though I know how bad off Mylo
is. Mylo has hardly eaten the last couple of days. His energy is still very
low, and the sick meow sound that he makes once and a while is very painful
to hear. Mylo's quality of life has deteriorated within the last month and I
don't want to put him through any more stress than he's already gone
through. I tried my best to find a way to help him get better but I have to
accept that there is nothing more I can do to help him become healthy again.
That is a difficult thing.

Hi Chris,
I've been thinking about you guys. What happened at the Internist today?
I hope no news is good news. Please update us when you can.
