Annette Posted July 7, 2016 Author Share Posted July 7, 2016 Pogo is gone. I will write more later. We had Pogo put to sleep today. On June 30th there were more mets on his lungs and he also was suffering from a pneumomediastinum. There was also an area that appeared to be fluid. About 3:00am this morning I think I heard Pogo yelp. He also became restless, was breathing hard, and coughing. He finally settled down. I already had an appointment locally for him for blood work to be done (we switched to doxorubicin chemotherapy) one week after his chemo treatment. Pogo always lived up to his name. He was definitely our pogo stick. He hadn't "pogo'd" since we got back from Madison on the 30th. When I took him in for his checkup today, our boy who loved going to the vet did not want to get out of the car when we got there. Miriam was also along because she had some lumps removed a couple weeks ago and she was in to get the stitches out. The vet tech ended up carrying Pogo into the clinic while I walked Miriam in. The vet said that his lymph nodes were swollen. She did xrays. His pneumomediastinum appeared to be resolved. There appeared to be more mets but the alarming thing was the amount of fluid there appeared to be. Anything that we would choose to do to determine what was happening would be too stressful for him considering his lung capacity that he had. We were considering waiting till tomorrow or Saturday to have him put to sleep (at home), but there was the question looming "What happens if he has another episode and it is worse? How much would he suffer before I could get him to an emergency vet?" I think Roy was in Sheboygan today. He wanted to be here but couldn't be. We will pick Pogo up on Saturday and bury him together at home. Quote Annette, mom to Banjo (AJN Spider Man) & Casey (kitty), wife to Roy.
