THANK YOU, OG and Mame! The vet called a few minutes ago. The x-rays show that the disease is just beginning. The vet feels, with a change in diet, Mags should be okay. Mags will need regular blood work done every few months, but I can deal with that. She will know more on Monday, but wanted me to know, there is NO cancer, thank God!

Slinkydog what a great picture of your dogs and the colored leaves. Is Roxie the one that is the same color as the leaves? Also sorry to hear about your deer encounter. Someone is always hitting one around here. Kstme what a scarey thing to happen with Mags! One thing good is that they can get a handle on the treatment...it is even worse when you don't know what is going on.

Thanks so much, everyone! I picked up Mags this morning, and it's been a long day. I have to stay right with her or she goes ballistic. She hasn't eaten since Saturday morning and has no interest in food, at all. This is a Sussex thing. We are keeping her on the same food she's been on. The vet checked it against her food chart and it's listed as safe and dietarily correct. Thank goodness, we just bought 60 lbs of it a couple of weeks ago! Most of Maggie's problems, right now, are due to the hot spot itching so badly. Hopefully, the drugs will kick in soon and she'll be on the way to Wellville. Again, THANK YOU for all your kindness.

Awww Slinkydog, I'm so sorry to read about the loss of your precious Bobby!! He always seemed like such a loving and gentle friend. My computer crashed and using borrowed computer, I hadn't been staying up with the Hairball thread, even in the lurking mode, so I just noticed this kind of late. Shadow and Roxy look like such sweethearts with their autumn leaves, I hope they will be able to adjust. Poor Shadow, doing the WooWoo on the 'net (how embarrassing is that?) but at least you got a 'front' shot so most people wouldn't know! So grateful you weren't hurt in your deer incident and hopeful your insurance treats you kindly! Take Care! Bisc

Mags is back in the hospital. She was holding her own yesterday, but this morning, around 11, she began her staring routine. I could see the pain in her eyes. It's so heartbreaking, I can't even begin to explain it. I called the vet, Thekid took her in and they did an ultra-sound about a half hour ago. Her pancreas is still inflamed and 'something' appears 'not right' with her liver. They are doing a biopsy tonight on her and hopefully, she'll come home tomorrow. We should know the results of the biopsy by Friday. There was no indication of any liver problem in her blood work. The vet is very optimistic. The poor vet must think I'm a total nutcase! I keep losing it, but Tommy passed away due to liver failure and I can't imagine his dog doing the same thing. PLEASE keep your fingers and toes crossed for Mags.

THANK YOU, you ALL have no idea how much your kindness means to us. Mags is home and sleeping, for the most part. She decided she didn't want to eat. Sniffed her food and walked away. She's had only two meals since Saturday morning. Very small meals. She's on FIVE medications! And, of course, ALL of them are given at different times. The yukky smelling stuff, for her liver, is liquid and has to be given over her food...which she won't touch! It's so hard because she's always been the 'well' dog. Never a problem nor issue. She turned 6 last week and wow, what a mess! Hopefully, we'll have some kind of answer tomorrow or Saturday. So, PLEASE, keep her in your thoughts. {{{{{HUGS to EVERYONE}}}}}

Oh, dear. I am just now reading this (hard to keep up with "personal" life these days), and Kstme, I'm so hoping they'll not only have an answer -- but a good one, too. Kisses AND hugs.
