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

I told you Phoebe would turn all attentive! grin I think animals have an instinct about that kind of thing.

So... is there a chance that Phoebe will be renamed Florence? grin

Good news Anniebach, I’m pleased for you.

Phoebe is already known as Veruca Salt , the white tornado, and bossy knickers ?

Lottie doesn't need a wash every few minutes , Phoebe thinks she does !

awww i am so sorry i love my fur babies so much too. I really think you should get a 2nd opinion. xx

There is no other vet here, I can't travel 20 miles , no car .

I am pleased she is making a good recovery and hope and pray the cancer will not come back.
