RobinM Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 (edited) The cancer has spread. It's in Polli's lungs. In addition, the lump( S) were aspirated and they are vascualr. Blood came out all 4 times they attempted to do it. We will keep her comfortable for as long as possible. We will continue with the acupunture. Vet said she is not walking like a dog with LS today, it's more in the upper back. I don't really have anything more to say at this time. And.. delusional me, thought that we would beat this. I really did. Thank you all for your prayers. I don't know how I could have gone through any of this without all your love and support.

Guest caiteag Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Robin, I am so sorry that this didn't turn out the way we were all praying for. Polli, you and your entire family are still in our prayers and thoughts. No matter how long she has left, know that she knows how much you love her and that you did everything you could to give her the best chance at life.

maryz Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Oh no! This is soooooooo not fair. Polli has been such a trooper through all this. She couldn't have had a more loving and devoted family. I admire more than I can ever put into words what you and your DH have done for her (and Beau). I'm hoping you still have some good quality time with her. There's nothing else to say except I'M SORRY.
