She is continuing to do wonderfully - makes me glad that we did make the decision to have her spleen removed. We should hear anytime starting today about the pathology results. Now that has me in knots...I'm ready to know one way or the other so we can get a plan in action.
Grace does not have cancer. Even the vet was surprised and was very pleased to be able to share positive news with us. She had a blood filled tumor, probably caused by a trauma to her spleen. Not sure how it would have happened, but we are extremely relieved! She is continuing to recover very well and is so bored of being "kept quiet".
That is absolutely wonderful news!!! I know how relieved you must be. I'm very happy for you and Grace. Yes, boredom is a challenge with these active dogs, but I'm sure she'll be recovered and back to her usual activities in no time.

This is the best ending to the week I can imagine!!!!
NO KIDDING!
That is a true miracle.
There are probably 99 malignant tumors for every 1 benign spleen mass in a 10 yr old dog. Seriously, a good outcome here is rare.
My husband, a human oncologist-surgeon, says that's why it ALWAYS pays to try.
SO HAPPY FOR YOU!
