Taz's results from his sonogram came in today and, it seems, he has pancreatic cysts. Both the vet and I agree that he's most likely going to be fine by just giving him 2cc's of lactulose daily.
WHAT A RELIEF!!! We went from possible renal failure to pancreatic cysts. I'm confident he'll be JUST FINE!!! Very special thanks to all of you for your concern and for those personal "checking in" emails. My love to you all for caring. Hugs, Pat -------------------- INKY November 26, 1991-February 5, 2005

Whew! I've been worried about you and Taz. I am so happy he's going to be okay! Please keep us updated.
Love, Jenny -------------------- Alice Mae Bennett ("Allie") was born around May of 2003. She came home to us in July. On March 10, 2005, she became ill with a condition called mesenteric torsion or volvulus. It is a twisting of the small intestine which is nearly impossible to diagnose. Once symptoms begin it is usually too late to save the intestine by surgical means. There are no known ways to prevent it and its causes are also unknown. It is extremely rare, especially in medium-size females like Allie. It is more common in males of large breeds, like German Shepherds.
Allie was a sweet, happy and loving soul. I will miss her every day. Thanks for giving us these last two years, little girl. We'll always treasure them. |

Dear Pat, I am so glad that your baby Taz will hopefully be just fine on his medication. I guess when we have had one or more leave us we get scared that we will lose even more babies. I am just so thrilled he is not going to die. What wonderful news.
Love, Ann -------------------- My girls went to the Rainbow Bridge 6 weeks and 3 days apart. Snookie had cushing's disease, and later developed diabetes. Both had cancer, Snookie had cancer of the liver, and Chili Bean had cancer of the pallet. Chili Bean was our son's chihuahua but we kept her often throughout her life and she stayed with us for the last 9 months of her life. Chili Bean also had asthma and heart failure. We will see you in Heaven my precious darlings. Snookie Lynn Howard 2-04-94 - 12-26-04 Senorita Chili Bean Bubbles Howard 11-05-94 - 11-11-04 |
