Guest Heehoo Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 I just sent you a PM. The thing I learned about Greytalk during that horrible time with Dear & his hermangio sarcoma, this is the best place to come when you're grasping at life. There is so much love & support here. So many of us have gone what you will be going through soon. I know I might sound brutal to some, but having suffered through hermangiosarcoma 2 years ago with Dear, I am only speaking the truth. Which you & I have already discussed. Spoil him rotten, give him whatever he wants. He will let you know when he's ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MZH Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 What Hilda said. She and I have both been through the ringer with hemangio and she speaks the truth. Spoil him rotten. Have a party if he's able to enjoy it and take lots of photos. We was so busy enjoying Cullen's last 3 weeks we forgot to take pics. He went downhill so fast we didn't see it coming.

greytluck Posted December 4, 2009 Author Share Posted December 4, 2009 I want to thank everyone for your kind words and support, it really does help so much. I was totally devastated today after finding out the results, even though I already knew it in my heart. If there is a silver lining to this situation, it's that this form of cancer is relatively pain free. I trust Hobbes will let me know when it's his time to go but until then I see many car rides, home cooked meals and hopefully a few more play runs in Hobbes' future.

Guest Energy11 Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Sooo sorry to hear the news. With our Max, who had OS, we did palliative care, and gave LOTS of love! It was a very good three months, for the most part. Spoil your boy rotten!!!!! Sending you all the love we can give, and many many prayers!

Guest jurishound Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 I am so sorry to read of Hobbes' diagnosis. Our beloved Stormy was diagnosed last Veteran's day, after he began coughing and chest radiographs revealed lung metastasis. We spoiled him with special foods and walks in his favorite parks until it was time to say goodbye. I never felt that he was in pain; but his breathing became labored and he was very tired. Please know that there is nothing you could have done to stop this very aggressive cancer - the visceral form metastasizes quickly and silently. Warm hugs to you and your wonderful boy.
