not_hathorThe stitches are out, Jethro is allowed to use the porch steps again but has become accustomed to being walked around the block several times a day!!! Spoiled rotten half-Chow ...
The 'Grapefruit' was biopsied: apparently there WERE cancer cells detected; Dr. Jenn is reasonably certain they got it all, but suggested we keep our eyes open in case it comes back. We are still on the Kidney Function diet... I've wondered if at this point it would be helpful to have Jethro's DNA analyzed so we might have some idea on how long he might have left -- he's already pushing the upper range of Chow life expectancy.
(Hugs Jethro gently)
