My 5 year old bullmastiff was diagnosed yesterday with Lymphoma around his heart, it was a complete shock as he has always been the pillar of health. The tumor only took about a month to form, and he went from a vibrant happy dog to a sad under weight dog in a matter of weeks. He is currently on Chemo, and seems to be doing a bit better already. I'm not going to give up hope that he will be with me for years to come. He is my best friend, and I know he isn't ready to leave just yet, and I am certainly not ready to have him go. I've taken him off of dog food and am preparing his food myself along with adding supplements to his diet and lots of love. I'm sorry for anyone that gets a cancer diagnoses for their dog, it just doesn't seem fair. I wish everyone the best, and send positive thoughts to all the families and animals on this prayer list.

Anna, the sweetest girl, was today diagnosed with late stage Lymphoma. She has been our precious companion for the last 12 years. My two sons have grown up with her. Our hearts are breaking.
Two vets have given us the same diagnosis and both have told us that even with all the best chemo she would have only a few months at best.
Please pray for her. We do not want this to be a painful ending for her life here. Every minute with her is precious and we are doing everything we can to make the most of them.
Thank you so much for your prayers for Anna. I am very grateful.

Please pray for our very stoic Momdog. She left us on 5/19/11. Overnight the lump under her arm went from egg size to grapefruit size and when I took her in Thursday morning the vet was certain it was cancer in her mammory gland. She was an excellent dog and companion. She loved her sisters and brothers. We all miss her terribly.
