4My2Greys Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 For a cancer that is suppose to be easy to "smack into remission" it has proved to be too much for my precious girl and me. I've decided to stop the chemotherapy treatments. The cancer hasn't been responding to them and vets visits have literally become hell for her. I really thought I would have more time with my little girl and now a month after losing Bruiser I fear she won't be far behind him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will never ever forget how you were there for me as I went through my initiation into cancer and greys. I wish I could wave a magic wand and make it go away for you but please know if there is anything I can do for you, anything at all, I am here for you.

queenwinniesmom Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Aw, Judy, I'm so sorry. We lost our Patsy to lymphoma after doing chemo too. It was a roller coaster, because the vet thought it was likely that this type of cancer would respond well---and our vet is pragmatic about these things, so it gave us hope. It's such a crapshoot. Sometimes we get lucky, and sometimes everything we do is not enough. I really hope that you do have more time with her. I know how much you love her, and how hard both of you are trying. And I also know that you will make the right decision for you and for Beanie. You're both in my prayers. Hugs to you, and gentle nose kisses to Beanie and Nadir from Lydia, Polly, Tess and Calvin.

a_daerr Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 So sorry you are going through this. Lymphoma is a merciless disease. I lost a cat to an aggressive form of lymphoma, and she suffered all the way. Hugs for Beanie. Hopefully Bruiser will meet her at the bridge.

tbhounds Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 (edited) Well crap :-(. How was the diagnosis staged? Have you discussed a rescue protocol? Please don't feel that I'm suggesting you are stopping prematurely-I would never question someones personal feelings-just wondered if you had a heart to heart with your oncologist. Edited to add-I'm sorry, it sucks either way Edited March 5, 2013 by tbhounds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
