Mylo's biopsy results came back positive for cancer. He had a malignant tumor (cancer of the spleen) that was everywhere, stemming from an adrenal gland , there was no treatment. I knew Mylo had been in pain and if I had not gone to see him after surgery and seen his condition and not taken him with me, he would have died alone in that incubator, scared and in pain. I feel a bit better knowing my boy died where he loved to be, laying on my chest, with his ear up next to my heart, having his ear massaged and being kissed on his head. I just hope I eased his pain and made it easier for him because it was the hardest thing I ever had to do. I do not feel as guilty as I did earlier for taking him for a second opinion. I guess, I was just trying to do the right thing for him. I am only guilty of truly loving a companion and wanting to save his life. Eleanor Mead [Posted in FML issue 3783]
