Yesterday Miss Pheona seemed to be feeling pretty good, despite having her oil dose raised again, slightly. She went with me to my group and we stopped at the little park we love on the way home. It was pretty warm out, so all she was really interested in doing was laying in the grass or wandering around sniffing the grass. Today she seems to be feeling the oil a little more, she is extremely relaxed.
I left another message for the vet today, and have still not heard back about her possible surgery. I really wish I could take her to a different vet for a second opinion. It is so frustrating and scary to be left hanging. It has been 2 full weeks today since she was seen and they diagnosed the cancer. I still have no idea what is going on with her health. The doctor appears to be "very busy" every day, so busy that Pheona's case is not able to be reviewed it seems.
I got a letter today congratulating me for being qualified for 50% off of her vet bill. The letter seems to make it clear that this discount is only for emergency services that she may need. It looks like it won't cover her treatment for cancer. (If they even DO anything to treat her.) This is not her regular vet, I took her to this vet because they have an emergency department. Her regular vet couldn't see her until late this month when she was having diarrhea and her bump was bleeding. I would give anything to be able to have her seen by her regular vet. They seem so much more caring.
If you would like to donate to help me get her into a vet that will actually treat her you can contact me, or donate directly via PayPal, at juliethies@gmail.com. We cannot express how grateful we would be.

doing to the tumor. |
