Default Terminal cancer diagnosis confirmed (was "Looks like it's the endfor Al")

I am sure he feels as blessed as you do to have shared your lives, I am
truly sorry for your situation, purrs from our house, Lee

Hi all. I got back from the vet a little while ago. She took a couple
x-rays of Al's lungs and confirmed he has terminal cancer. I'm very sad,
but the news was expected. It's not Al's time yet, so at least he'll be
with me a while longer. He is eating, still plays with me a bit, and
enjoys being pet. He also still shows interest when he hears a bird at
the window. I expect towards the end he'll go downhill quickly. I'll
know when it's time and Al will let me know too.

It's going to be very hard on me when I have to put him down. But I
don't want him to suffer. Al has had a good life despite his various
maladies (diabetes, asthma, etc.). And I've taken very good care of him.
I have been so lucky to have had Al. He is as sweet and gentle a cat as
you'd ever want to meet.

Rich
