| Update 7/16
Well Cliff had to go to a different hospital for his surgery because the first vet is not equipped for having to actually cut into muscle and his tumor was deep into the muscle on his chest right over his sternum(sp).
We are still waiting to hear the results of the biopsy although the surgen seems to feel we should be OK. They cut out enough extra all the way around the tumor so that they can test that area for cancer cells as well to see if it is further into the tissue.
Waiting is probably the hardest part of this so far. Cliff came home the same day he went in and was pretty sore for a couple of days but since he is the worlds most laid back dog to begin with, he seems to be back to normal and feeling OK.
Now we just have to wait for the results and in a couple of weeks go to get his staples removed. Hopefully that will be all. |
