I got a lot of responses from people about my little guy coughing. Well, he had cardiomyapathy, and we got the fluid out of his lungs, but he refused to eat and began throwing up constantly, more trips to the vet, more tests, he had a large tumor in his GI tract, lymphoma. Once the fluid cleared out of his lungs, there were tumors in his lungs. He was not eating, not even duck soup off my finger. He couldn't walk, had severe difficulty breathing and was becoming skin and bones. he couldn't even lift this head. He was helped to the bridge last week. It is so hard to make that decision- and i really wasn't sure i would have to on that last trip because he was so ill. i wasn't sure he would make it to the vet. Things happen so fast. I am heartbroken. Becky Poland [Posted in FML 6039]
