My sweet baby boy passed away during recovery today. The vet said he had
a huge mass behind his bladder and a fluid filled sack which had started
preventing the urine to pass into his left kidney. Or something- I can't
really think right now. Loss of his kidney was inevitable. She wanted
to take a sample of the mass to see what we were dealing with (lymphoma
or carcinoma) and then go from there. I gave her the okay to do that.
After she took him off the gas, Rascal went into arrest. She tried
reviving him for 30 minutes, but it didn't work. I wish I could stop
crying.
Sandee, please look out for my little boy. All he ever wanted to do was
play, bite toes and chase and bat around toy balls. I miss him so much
and just wish I could have made him better.
