Sorry to bring this up again but I really need your opinions

Lottie was examined two weeks ago, a needle biopsy thing carried out, cancer. I spoke of it at the time

The vet said an X-ray, an op to remove the one side of The mamory glands. I decided I couldn't subject her to that

Yesterday vet phoned, said she had discussed Lottie with a senior vet - I do not trust the senior vet, she is a partner in the firm and is known locally as pounds,shillings and pence.

Seems now they will remove a smaller section of the glands, I asked about the x ray to check her lungs as first recommended . No point, if cancer is in her lungs the lump could be too small to show up on the x ray.

Son in law and son in law who isn't, both said no way if pounds, shillings and pence is involved.

I want what is right for Lottie, realise only I can decide but feeling swamped , the inquest in four weeks and we have asked for disclosure of statements , if granted this will be more stress .

So let them operate next week or wait untill Lottie shows she is unwell.

Thank you and apologies for bringing it up again

Lovely news Anniebach I have an inkling of how you have been feeling - you have been through so much ❤️

So pleased that you have a satisfactory outcome. Hope Lottie feels more herself tomorrow. You are/have been in my thoughts throughout this time. roastchicken

Thank you all x

Lottie is home with me, rather confused but that can be expected. She will eat a little bit of chicken later - I hope.

So relieved to have her back with me . Love her so much

Yay that's great news Annie - what a relief for you - so pleased. Get well soon Lottie flowers

Good news, Annie. Lottie will soon bounce back.

WilmaKnickersfit Mon 08-Jan-18 13:21:38

Brilliant news Annie. Best outcome to a bad situation. I can definitely see Lottie being smothered with TCL when she gets home. Animals have an instinct about illness. You might get a surprise and find that Phoebe is very attentive to Lottie without being a nuisance.? flowers ?

Veruca Salt: Hey, Daddy, I want an Oompa Loompa. I want you to get me an Oompa Loompa right away.

Mr. Salt: All right, Veruca, all right. I'll get you one before the day is out.

Veruca Salt: I want an Oompa Loompa now!

Phoebe is so demanding my younger daughter calls her Verruca Salt ?

gillybob Mon 08-Jan-18 13:00:09

So pleased that you have had some good news at last Annie and that Lottie will be home with you soon.

I love your choice of names for your pooches. Soooo cute. smile

Oh Annie that's lovely news. So happy for you and Lottie. flowers

Anniebach Mon 08-Jan-18 12:40:51

Vet just phoned, Lottie's lungs are clear so they will now remove the lump and she will be home with us later today

Thank you all so much, it was all your support which helped me reach the decision , you saved Lottie with kindness, advice, patience, prayers , positive thoughts and patience with me , you are truly wonderful people

My love and gratitude

Annie x

MawBroon Mon 08-Jan-18 12:24:45

Anniebach my thoughts are with you too.
Don’t worry too much about the puppy, Lottie may like the company when she is home (as she WILL be DV) do you have a puppy crate? Or a gate to keep them apart if you feel Lottie wants some peace and quiet?
Do keep us posted xx?

Anniebach Mon 08-Jan-18 09:24:32
