Our beloved Dane, Patriot, was just diagnosed with osteosarcoma in his right, hind-leg. He is a beautiful harlequin who loves life, our family, and just about everything else. He is almost 9 years old and the vet gave him a short time left with us. We have him on pain medicine and are trying to make his last days good ones. We are devastated to say the least and are struggling with the decision that lies in front of us. We love him and will miss him dearly.

Kyler is ten years young and had his front left leg removed a week ago yesterday. Stitches have not been removed and we have not gone back to the vet yet for chemo recommendations. Our vet said his chest was clear and thus our choice to remove the leg. He is doing much better than me (the mom who is stressing). I know our God is an awesome God because we still have Ky and he is doing amazingly well. We are blessed, but every once in awhile I feel the need to have a little "hiccup" and cry where Kyler can't see me.

I will include these and all the sick and suffering animals of our world in my daily prayers.
We will know the diagnosis this Tuesday for our 10 year old Black Labrador Retriever, Kayla Superdog. She is the sweetest, smartest, best dog ever....which is why Superdog was added to her name about 5 years ago.
My prayer is that she will not suffer, that her remaining days are good and that we will be wise but not selfish about how we go forward with her treatments after the diagnosis.

? Really Bad - but can be cured by God
Message
Apollo was just diagnosed with cancer. He has a mass on his spleen and on his heart. They had to remove fluid (blood) from around his heart and we're praying it does not refill so that his life can be prolonged so we could give him lots of love and have him around for Christmas. He his only 8 years old and his a beautiful black flat coat lab with a very loving and mild mannered personality. He has two sisters, Jazzmin (Aussie / Lab mix) and Maya (chihuahua mix) who are going to miss him terribly when it's time to say good bye. I'm praying for a miracle as I have faith that God can remove all traces of cancer if it be his will. Please keep Apollo in your prayers!

My precious little girl Brigitte (shih tzu) was diagnosed with lymphoma on Sept 20. Please pray that God can bring her into remission and give her a good long quality of life and that she doesn't suffer. The allergies and mold in our area are terrible right now and making her swell worse. Please pray that the allergies cease and not bother her and the swelling goes down. We love her so much. I have her on the cottage cheese and flaxseed oil and some supplements that seem to make her feel better I just hope and pray that it continues.

Our family dog Blanka was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year. This year she has had two surgeries to remove masses from her belly, the most recent one two months ago. Although she recently had a mass removed she already had a new one come up. We are trying to do anything we can to help her as she is only 4 years old and is such a wonderful loving dog. Please keep Blanka in your prayers.

Our dog Kobe has been sick for about 4 months on and off, none of the vets knew what was wrong with him at first until today they took another x-ray of his chest and found the growth in his lungs. :( This has been really hard for us to take in as he is only 4 years old. He is the best dog ever and we can't believe that he has to go through this. We are totally heartbroken right now. Please pray for him. Thank you!
