Sydney Arber hasn't added a story.
I rehomed Sooty almost a year and a half ago, at age 8. He had not been to a vet in at least 7 years and had a very serious skin irritation that had been undiagnosed and untreated. I worked hard with my vet to fix his skin over time, but he has had numerous health issues in addition to that probably because of his overworked immune system.
Sooty just came back from his latest surgery on some growths that appeared very suddenly on his tongue, and although they were removed successfully, the bad news is that the tests confirmed that they are quite an agressive form of cancer. This is not at all surprising to me - given that his immune system is, frankly, exhausted. I am not going to put him through chemo because I don't think he would cope - the vet rather agrees and is pleased that I am in touch with the reality of his age and condition.
There is a chance that these tumours could reappear next week, or they could take a bit longer. Either way, they will return and so I will be trying everything to delay them...
Friends, instead of any birthday gifts for me next month, I would really really love it if you could help me by putting money towards buying some of Sooty's medicines and herbal supplements that I am buying in.
I have created an Amazon Wish List if you would like to buy a whole something for Sooty, or if you would like to donate a small amount to this, I will be able to buy everything thanks to your support.
Anything is appreciated because I'd love to be able to give everything a shot, even if there's only a tiny chance it may help.
