I hope everyone's Thanksgiving was wonderful!! Yep, I was stuffed and exhausted! I'm grateful and blessed to have a full table and full chairs around it. I gotta say though that doing it all with a 2 year old is like running a marathon! 

I cracked up; we're working on potty training, and right now it's a hit and miss situation. I suspected a dirty diaper, so I asked him if we needed to change his pull ups. He cocked his head, put a sippy cup filled hand on his hip, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Yeah....... turkey poop!"

Bad day today. For those of you who have so patiently and compassionately  listened to my worries about KuBear through her various skin growths, I'm once again asking for a little prayer said on her behalf. This time, maybe you could include a second for me too? She had a large growth removed a couple of weeks ago. It was in a really bad place...... on her rear right knee. The report came back today and confirmed what the Vet had already suspected. It was malignant. What we didn't know is that it was stage 3 (there's only three stages). That's the "most malignant" and most aggresive. The edges were not clear. The Vet said she would suggest amputation of the leg, but since KuBear has already had malignancies in the other leg, she wouldn't recommend it.

I can go the route of chemo in Knoxville, but the prognosis is really grim even with it. We're at the end of good options. Now we just wait and watch for it to return...... it will return, probably in the same place. There is still a surgical option when it does, but that consideration is only there if it doesn't come back quickly ....... and the Vet thinks it will.

I've done all I can and have only undertaken all the procedures because she was still happy and active. I'll do what I need to for her when the time comes. It's funny the report came back today. She hasn't been herself today and I stayed home from work because of it. She's such a good girl. It's her nature to look out for me and she's done that every day of her 12 year life. I'm doing my best to do the same for her. Thanks for the prayers, Monkeys.

I am not good at giving advice, but all I can say is love her. She will know you do, and when the time comes it will be easier on both you and her.

Personally, I would do all it takes to save her even if it means both legs amputated. Nowadays there are places to order prosthesis to help dogs, just like for war heroes. As long as she is not in terrible pain, life is worth fighting for.

Take in mind that 12 years for a dog is a long life, and I'm sure she has lived a full life being loved and happy.

May God guide and inspire you during these tough times.

CBB,
Kubear is such a lucky girl to have you. 

She knows you love her and will do everything you can to help her, just as she loves you and protects you.

I'm so sorry you're both going through this.  You are in my prayers, healing for Kubear, and strength for you...you'll know what's right.

We're all here for you!  (((HUGS)))

I stand with the girl, Natalee Holloway.

"I can look back over the past 10 years and there were no steps wasted, and there are no regrets,'' she said. "I did all I knew to do and I think that gives me greater peace now." "I've lived every parent's worst nightmare and I'm the parent that nobody wants to be," she said.

CBB, what a beautiful dog.  You're in my prayers and you will know what to do when the time comes.  I just pray it's a long time from now.
