greymomnc Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Little Miss Jackie (age 13) has just been diagnosed with Lymphoma. It is in the abdominal area. After much consideration, we have decided not to do chemo but to start her on prednisone. Due to her age, and her somewhat neurotic nature, I just couldn't put her through chemo. I think the weekly trips to the vet would just be too much for her. She has been on rimadyl for her spondylitis and has to be off of that for 10 days before we can begin the prednisone. I just want whatever time she has left with us to be comfortable. She came to us at age 9 after being fostered by greytalker amysgreys. She had been bounced from home to home and was found wandering the streets of Charlotte, NC. She is a petite little girl. Very much a little drama queen. She and the late Miss Magic found each other at the GFNC Christmas drop-in. My two little old ladies. . I'm praying we have many more days left together. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.
