I know this is my second post today.  I think I'm done crying for the day
so I would like to hear from people who have gone through lymphoma with
their ferrets to see what has worked for them.  I've spent the afternoon
doing research on the disease.  Has anyone ever tried Timmy's Tonic?  Our
vet has suggested giving noni juice to my two little ones because it
contains cancer fighting agents.  How about acupuncture?  Has anyone
tried that or any other homeopathic remedy?
 
Cindy is 7 years old but Pete is only 4.  Both of them are still eating
and drinking just fine.  Cindy has put the weight that she lost back on.
Pete is a little uncomfortable due to the bowel infection but I think
within a day he should be somewhat normal.  He is on amoxicillan.  I want
to be pro-active here and do whatever I can to slow the process of this.
If anybody has any suggestions, please let me know.  My vet has suggested
putting them both to sleep if the tumors don't shrink.  But if they
aren't in any pain and they are still enjoying a quality life then is it
really neccessary yet?  I beat cancer a few years ago.  My Dad is beating
it now and is expected to make a full recovery.  Are there any cases of
ferrets beating it?  Any and all info would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks in advance,
Jennifer In AZ with Cindy, Pete, and Monsoon
