I wanted to let y'all know about this, it felt like ignoring the elephant in the room otherwise, but this isn't something I can talk about much yet.
A few weeks ago, I noticed that Maggie was looking very round in the middle, a very obvious change. I took her in to the vet last week, and from the X-rays it looked like something was going on, but they couldn't tell exactly what. There was some fluid, which they were able to sample for testing, and they took blood to test as well.
Nothing obvious came back, so yesterday I took her in for an abdominal ultrasound. And, yeah, looks like it's some kind of carcinoma. They got some cells to test, and we should hear next week some time, what kind it is, and thus what the prognosis is, what treatment is available, all that. I'm trying not to freak out too much yet, but it's hard. My baby girl.
Oh no, I'm so sorry. Even if it's not terrible, it's torture waiting. Sending all the good thoughts to you and your baby girl.
ReplyDeleteThat is frightening news; I hope the treatment will be effective for whatever she has. We love our cat babies!
ReplyDeleteKeeping my fingers crossed, and sending you so much love.
ReplyDeleteSweet Maggie; I'm so sorry. I'm sure the limbo of waiting feels excruciating - hope whatever it is is mild and can be dealt with easily and effectively.
ReplyDeleteI know how helpless it can feel to have someone you love facing an uncertain diagnosis. <3
Oh, I'm so sorry. Pet health is such a challenge. Hugs to both of you!
ReplyDeleteSigh.
ReplyDeleteOh no! I'm sorry, C.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry. Thanks for letting us know. Of course I'm hoping for the best possible outcome for you both.

ReplyDeleteOh, I'm so sorry. That's so hard. I'm glad Maggie has you looking out for her through this.
ReplyDeleteMaggie. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Sending you both all the love.
ReplyDeleteOh, friend. I hope it is not the bad news. I'm thinking of you and sweet Maggie! <3
