Melba update - anti cancer purrs?
Hi the
I just spoke to my SIL about Melba and the ultrasound today showed an enlarged spleen and nodules on the pancreas that could indicate either pancreatitis or cancer of the pancreas. Pancreatitis is manageable but the cancer isn't. Tomorrow at 2 PM they are aspirating the pancreas nodules and the spleen and will know 48 hours afterwards if it is cancer. My SIL is beside herself with worry for her 8 year old kitty. Any anti-cancer related purrs would be much appreciated for a much loved kitty. Susan M Otis and Chester |

Poor Melba. Your poor SIL, too. I hope your SIL gets the best news possible about her beloved Melba. Purrs are on the way.

My SIL is beside herself with worry for her 8 year old kitty. Any anti-cancer related purrs would be much appreciated for a much loved kitty. Lots of anti-cancer purrs coming up for Melba. Sorry to say this but it doesn't sound too good so if you can lead your sil towards the possibility of bad news without saying it's not possible at all..aww, you know what I mean. I had a lovely whippet, Pearl, my pearlie-girlie. I will share this although it may not be the same in cats. She got pancreatitis, that in itself can be life-threating in dogs. Wasn't too long after that seemed to be sorted that her spleen ruptured out of the blue through a tumour with no symptoms. Had her spleen removed and 6 or so months later she broke her leg getting out of bed (bone cancer) - there was a primary cancer in there somewhere. There seems to be a relationship between things going wrong with pancreas and spleen. Prepare her gently is all I can say really. If I am wrong here I will be happy, but if you are prepared for bad news and then get good news.. Tweed |
