Then on 2-13-09 the vet discovered it had come back even more rapidly > than the first time. x-rays showed nothing in the lungs or spleen but the > liver was hard to see though not enlarged. This past Monday he stopped eating > and drinking and I knew it was time. The next morning I took my heart > disguised as a little 7 pound black and white angel to the vet for the final > time. The night before I laid him on the bed next to me and he stared into my > face purring for hours. The cancer had spread to his liver and I knew I could > not stand for him be in pain. Before I took him to the vet I wrapped him in > his cat blanket and walked him all over the yard so he could see his ducks > and feel the air on his face. He loved to be outside. So from start to finish > he lived 19 weeks from diagnosis. This is a deadly, aggressive cancer and I > hope none of you experience it with your babies. I had my little man for 8 > years and 7 months and they were worth every minute. > > > > Viky Digangi > Support Enforcement Officer II > Monroe Regional Office > 318-362-5280 ext 297 > Fax 318-362-3363 > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Felvtalk mailing list > [email protected] > http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org _________________________________________________________________ Invite your mail contacts to join your friends list with Windows Live Spaces.
