I'm Losing Bandit

Bandit's bloodwork came back and everything looks normal (even BUN and
retaining - which is a surprise given her age). The vet still thinks
it could be a tumor on the front, underside of her brain and has
referred me to a veterinary opthomologist.

My Bandit (now 9) sends mega Purrs (and they're big, he's a mega-Purrer)
for your Bandit's wellbeing for as long as possible.
He has the feeling that she's waaaaaaay too feisty to leave quietly or
soon

We're all hoping you find the best path for her treatment: a specialist
ophthalmologist consult does seem like a good idea
and I'm ready, willing & able to contribute to any fund necessary to
help this along: I believe in "paying it forward" so you'd
be doing me a favour really

Purrs, yips & best wishes from the Team:
Gordon, Bandit UK, Snowball, Claudius & Raki

PS Why after 15 months does it hurt so much not to be able to write
"Pericles" in that list?

{{{{{{{{{{Gordon}}}}}}}}}} I still miss Pericles too, as does Sammy.

If I need it, I won't be to proud to ask for help. But for right now we're
doing OK, we're going to look into getting a home equity loan and I'm going
to get extra cash over and above what we need to pay off our credit card
debt just for this and other things like this that come up unexpectedly.

Sorry, I missed the original post. I hope the new vet is able to find the
cause and a solution to Bandit's problem. We're sending purrs that your
fears will not come to pass and Bandit has a lot more quality time with you.

Hugs back to you.

Since Bandit isn't in any pain, she's eating, drinking, and
eliminating with no problems, I'm not thinking about having her PTS
because of this. Brain surgery, at her advanced age of 16, is out
of the question. So it's just a matter of time while I watch her
closely for any signs of discomfort. I'm hoping she has many good
months left, but I can't count on much longer than that.

Purrs for you and for Bandit. I'm hoping that maybe the doctor is
wrong and there is no tumor, or that the tumor grows very slowly and
doesn't impact Bandit much further.
