The best gift I could have asked for

Dec 22, 2009 18:17

The weird little thing growing between my dog's front teeth is a benign tumor called an epulis (probably a fibromatous epulis). The vet's taking it out next week. I found it when it was still quite small, so the surgery will be minor. Thanks for all your good wishes, flist!

*huge sigh of relief*

Oh YAY. *sighs with you* Give your dog a hug from me! Mai offers chicken broth, easy on the mouth.

Thanks! I am going to spoil him rotten by cooking him soft things like minced chicken and rice.

Thanks! I am so happy I'm practically dancing, because I was certain it was going to be cancer.

We've had a few scares and one real cancer situation with our dogs over the years so, yeah, I understand your fear. But Ozzie joins in with celebrating your dog's diagnosis!

Thanks! I'm really glad all my fretting and wine drinking turned out to be for nothing.

I missed the original message. But I'm so glad it was nothing serious. :)
