That's a very difficult decision. Only you can make it. Just keep in mind
his quality of life and ask the vet about his chances. Factor in his age as
well. I'm glad though that you have an open mind and lots of hope. You
will make the right decision.
I'll be thinking of him and hoping for the best!
Good luck to you and Dexter!!

Subject: [Felvtalk] Dexter
We are having a hard time making a very tough decision for Dexter. In the
past three days, Dex has suffered facial and paw swelling and has started
having difficulty breathing. Today has been bad and he is now receiving
oxygen at the Dallas emergency vet clinic. X-rays show that he has lymph
node involvement in every area and his liver and spleen are enlarged and
have move out of the proper body cavity. This puts him in, I think, stage
4 of lymphosarcoma. He is whimpering and obviously in pain. We don't want
to give up and we are willing to do chemo for him. We want to do what's
best for Dexter, but it is so hard to make that final decision. Is it
time for his suffering to be over? Does he have a chance?
