Thank God

Sammy's fine. The doctor found a second lump and did a biopsy and found that it was nothing more than a benign fatty tissue buildup. Evidently, it's common in big dogs when they get older and she said not to worry but to check him once a month or so for anything else that should turn up. Not even a need for a follow up visit. Best news I've had in a long time. I love my boy!

Best news I've heard today as well.

I absolutely hate it when our pals have serious problems.

And I love my boy too. :-)

Thanks Kona, it really is a relief. The two of us have been through a lot together. He really has been there when I needed him, even if it was just to stare at me with those big brown eyes, that look that only a dog can give, the one that says "I love you too".

Kelly, I'm so sorry I just tuned in and didn't know what you were going through. I'm just so happy it turned out to be nothing.
