ok here are the results after talking to Marx's vet.

 

Pathology: Cutaneous Hemangiosarcoma.

 

If he's gonna have it this is the best one to have. She said she got it all and that no other treatment is neccessary. I was so terrified he had Subcutaneous hemangiomasarcoma but that is not the case. Marx does have a few other lesions that I have to keep watch on and there will be no more prolong sun baths for him (not that I let him in the past).

 

When I spoke to Diane yesterday Dr. Couto was on standby to jump in and read slides and assist in anyway he could. What a wonderful man. Then there is Diane......what can I say I haven't already said about this amazing lady. Thank you Diane you know I adore you!

 

As for my GT friends thank you, thank you, thank you for all the prayers and well wishes. I think everyting is hitting me as I type this and it's difficult to type through the tears. I very thankful to everyone.

 

So my sweet hunky boy, looks like things are ok sweetie, mommy and daddy love you more than you'll ever know :blush

Praying for all the missing greys!

My whippet has/had that and underwent the surgery (twice, not good margins the first time) about 9 months before we got him. We have had him for almost 1.5 years since then and no recurrence. Paws crossed that all will be well! My vet explained that if he "had" to have cancer, he got the "best" type!

Great news, Karen! Now, is that the same thing as hemangiopericytoma? That's what Rascal's got....they also said it was one of the "better" ones to get.

I don't know if they're the same thing, but that's what my Shadow had removed last year. Even though the pathology report showed not completely clean margins (it was up against his kneecap on one side) it's been a year and 4 months and no recurrence so far.

 

So glad to hear the great report on Marx! :colgate
