    Rosie's in MCT removal surgery, vet just called they found another one..

    I keep praying that my girl won't get more of these tumors and we were very lucky for 2 years, last month she had one removed and today she's having two removed, it seems to be too much for her, she's such a sweet heart I often wonder why her, she is one the top patient at the vet's practice for MCTs, I which noone had that honor. Waiting for the phone to ring to see when and if she is coming home today, I sure will miss her keeping my feet warm at night, I know stairs are off limits for a few days, I wish this night mare would end.
    Just as anothe thought, yesterday I went to see my vascular surgeon, one of my stents is leaking into the aortic wall, I need surgery again, they are debating whether it will be open or endo. I would never wish this on anyone!

    Thank you everyone, Rosie came home and as a true Labrador she just could not skip a meal, the vet sent home a special canned food for post surgery pups, kind of a chicken stew, it looked good, smelled good too, she ate her dinner and went straight to her bed in the den, away from her sister and little baby brother. The incisions are 5-6" long, one on each side of her rib cage, they are a little red around the stitches but that's all to be expected. We go back in 12 days for stitch removal. We have a new plan to take Rosie in every six months to be checked for MCTs, the ones that she has had are all very small, ranging from looking like a pimple to looking like a slightly raised red rash.
    LOL, I went to my primary care doctor yesterday, I knew there was something else wrong, she never calls unless it's another test. I MRI Monday, they are looking at those
    spots more closely, I am trying to keep a sense of humor, now I a have Rosie to care for and keep me busy.
