Re: Ewok has a tumor--Michelle
Thanks, Tonya! Yeah, I think there may have been something up with the list over the weekend...hopefully the problem has been resolved! :) Ewok, so far, is doing pretty well...he's breathing much easier so I take that as good news that the tumor is shrinking...I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much as the lymphomas I've dealt with in the past have been soo aggressive... :( If he does go into remission, I fear that it won't be for very long...anyhoo, I'm trying not to think about that...he's feeling pretty good right now and that's all that matters...I had no idea that I could spoil him any more that I already had! :) Jen But if you tame me, then we shall need each other.

Re: Ewok has a tumor--Michelle
My alternative vet put Kitty on Intrasound for cancer. She said her uncle had bladder cancer for several years, took Intrasound and had no pain until the very end and then very little. I'm not convinced Kitty has cancer although she does have tumors (there is a big difference).

Ewok has a tumor... :(
Damn, damn, damn...but I can't tell you guys enough how so very proud of this little man I am...my vet was able to get us into the oncologist's office straight away and it was confirmed that he has lymphosarcoma in his chest cavity. He went through his first round of chemo this morning (everything has happened so fast...I'll probably be hitting the wine supply shortly...forget going back to work! ;) )...anyhoo, all we can do now is wait and see how the tumor responds. My vet was actually quite impressed with his overall health (bloodwork, etc.) that she even retested him for leukemia to see if he hadn't thrown the virus off...but, unfortunately, he's still coming up positive. No mattter, though, he seems to be pretty upbeat irregardless...incessently grooming all his shaved spots...if all goes well, the oncologist says perhaps six to eight months (although he treated a feleuk guy who's going on 2 years remission), and I'll take it seeing as though, for these Feleuk guys, 6 months is a lifetime...

Re: Ewok has a tumor... :(
My alternative vet put Kitty on Intrasound Powder and MacroForce to boost her immune system. She has tumors in both lungs (unrelated to FeLV) that the vets believe are cancer (I don't agree--I believe they are from histoplasmosis because she was feral when she came to live with my parents and spent most of her kittenhood in a starling infested pine thicket). I refused to try chemo or surgery on her over 6 months ago and she is doing very well. You might check the internet for the active ingredient in MacroForce. I know it comes in several forms. She also drinks water treated with Willard Water.

She has tumors in both lungs (unrelated to FeLV) that the vets believe are cancer (I don't agree--I believe they are from histoplasmosis because she was feral when she came to live with my parentsand spent most of her kittenhood in a starling infested pine thicket). I refused to try chemo or surgery on her over 6 months ago and she is doing very well. You might check the internet for the active ingredient in MacroForce. I know it comes in several forms. She also drinks water treated with Willard Water.

Re: Ewok has a tumor... :(
:) Thanks, Jenn! I needed that pep-talk! :) I'm just hoping that Ewok's tumor responds better to chemo that our Pips' did...although I hear that chest tumors respond much more readily to chemo than intestinal tumors (which Pips had). And you're lucky...I had my sights set on the tequila bottle originally! LOL! ;) Jen But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world.

Re: Ewok has a tumor... :(
Thanks, Susan...that means alot! Ewok isn't too keen on the shaving bit right now, but something's making him feel a little better as he's got more spunk now than he's had in the past week...I hope this works!
