Bubba's got cancer
After having to put down our 16 yr old cat, Mikey, in August (he had gastric lymphoma and just too anemic to even make it to chemo), we find ourselves facing kitty cancer again.
The biopsy results are in and Bubba (12 yrs) has colonic adenocarcinoma. He had lost a lot of weight since Mikey died in August and after sono and palpating it, they did surgery to remove the mass in his colon. He had the surgery a week ago and is doing amazingly well. He's back to eating like a pig and seems more active than he has been in months.
The surgeon said that the margins were clean and that they also biopsied the liver and nearby lymph node, which were both clear. (This is good, right?) She suggested making an appointment with the oncologist to discuss chemo as a just-in-case kind of thing. I didn't speak to her long, b/c I was at work and couldn't talk long. We have a followup appointment on Thursday, as well as the oncologist's appointment then, so I'll have all my questions answered then.

Re: Bubba's got cancer
Keep me posted on what the oncologist says. I was thinking of you and Bubba the other day.
