GREAT NEWS ABOUT SHILOH & A HUGE THANK YOU !!!

BENIGN !!!

Yes, that was the first word I heard -

besides the vet's intro,

I heard earlier this evening.

(Shiloh doing the happy dance)

Shiloh had a benign PLASMACYTOMA

(plasmacytosis?)

If you read the article that link goes to-

I especially like the last sentence in the abstract-

"The results of this study indicate 

that canine cutaneous plasmacytomas  

are benign..." 

Ok, now comes the 

HUGE THANK YOU

for all your thoughts and prayers-

they are all so greatly appreciated.

I wanted to get around to everyone's blog to thank you each with a comment but 

besides dealing with what was happening with Shiloh plus getting the 

Beaglebratz's pictures for the luau,

I'm afraid that my vision problems continue-

I'm still working and it's not really bad but 

my eye doc appt.s are at least weekly and this week I will also be traveling to Overland Park for an appt. with my eye specialist.

Right now, I'm struggling to 

keep my eyes open so

need to get the B-bratz outside so 

we can all come back in and 

get to bed.

HAPPY JULY 4th an'the Honorooroo Pawty

 

This message is comin'tu u via our telepathic wave-stream.


Shiloh'n Shasta here- 


We haf bin furry much bizy with all the fun at the Honorooroo Luau with the Feisty Three
an'haf not bin able tu post b-4 now.  We du invite if u haz not bin there b-4, tu stop by their blog tu chek out all the pikchurz they haf of the Luau.  There haz bin soooooooo furry much tu du there - not just a luau BUTT last nite wuz the big bonfire piknik on the beach

an'a surfin'contest an'a late nite pool pawty an'there iz gonna b a hula-hula dance later then tunite iz the big fireworkz display  

                         An'with sum thoughtz frum our mom, we also want tu leave u with a serious concern of ourz.  We haf herd of tu many doggiez an'kittiez who fur sum dumb reazon, their peepz think they shood stay outside or go tu piknikz with'em an'b around fer the boom-boomz that happen later tunite.  Even tho we iz in Honorooroo(courtesy of the Internetz)-


PLEEZE LEAVE YOUR DOGGIEZ'n KITTIEZ AT HOME'n IN THE HOUSE! They REALLY DO NOT NEED tu b there - if they cood talk, they wood tell u they don't like the sound of the boom-boomz.  They git scared an'run off - git hit by carz or end up in shelterz an'we all no the end result at the shelterz - espeshally now b-cuz the shelterz git  over-crowded with all the scared doggies'n kittiez.  How 'bout leavin'em in a small, darkened room with a radio with hi-volume. 


Ok - now bak tu the Luau

UPDATED on Shiloh - 2nd post today

Well, whatever it was - it ain't there no more.  The vet said that it was not a cyst - he tried to drain it but nothing would drain.  

He would not even guestimate what it was- 

he said he used to do that but 

was always wrong so he won't do it anymore.  

He did say we could just give it a week or two to see what happened and 

if I did want it removed and a pathology report- that would take at least a week and over $125.

What I remember the most was how it was less

than a month ago.

I had Shiloh to this vet then but the

vet did not seem too concerned and

just told me to watch it-

which is exactly what I did.

(Remember from my prior post - it was basically a small spot, barely raised)

Within the last couple of days, 

the bump got to the point where it was starting

to make Shiloh's hair stick out.

So that is where we are at now-

waiting at least 7 to 10 days,

maybe a day or two longer due to the holiday,

for the results of the path report.

In the meantime, Shiloh has never been bothered

by it and his appetite has definitely not changed.

Since the harness he wears on walks and visits 

comes really close to the shaved area-

also has two staples-

he is pretty much stuck in the house and 

our bakyard.

(Will get the staples out on 7/9)

I want to get him some chicken (got rice)

and other good stuff-

Shiloh'n Shasta almost always get a little extra

mixed with their kibble altho not much-

tonite it was a few blueberries and a

spoonful of cottage cheese for each

(just usually do a little extra for variety-

they are not spoiled at all)

Ok - 'nuff rambling for now-

now the hardest part is upon me-

the waiting while 

Shiloh is totally oblivious to any of this.

Instead, he is wondering whatever did he do to

deserve loosing a small part of himself so traumatically.

 Mom'n Shiloh

What's up with Shiloh?

This is from the mom and gotta be quick since me and Shiloh are headed off to the vet to see if we can find out what this is->

 (this is the best pic I could get but still not good.)

It is less than 1/4 inch off the skin and about as round as a usual size pencil eraser.
I first noticed something in this same spot a couple of weeks ago but by the time we got to the vet, it had almost disappeared - it looks a lot worse this time.  I hope it is not what my first thought was - I have had a melanoma removed and I know the signs to look for.


Ok - I will update when we return if there is any updating to do about Shiloh.  If anyone is so inclined to say a little prayer, it would be much appreciated.
Gotta go for now,
Kim and Shiloh
