Hi, I'm Leftenant Lea Pierce, Houndslave since last August 18 to Admiral
JED (Just Enough Drool) "Snatch" Basset, commissioned by the benevolent
Golden Gate Basset Rescue. My first post.
Adm. JED is sending copious drool to your family and I hold you deep in my
heart during this time of tremendous loss. I lost my first basset (Percy,
aka Sir Percival, aka Gumby) last year, and my mates at GGBR (especially
Nancy and Judy) consoled me through that awful time. They told me over and
over "Percy will send his replacement." And he did. Adm. JED took command
last August and it's been pretty darned smooth sailing since then (it helps
that Sonoma County is land-locked, and we don't suffer too many squalls
amidst the vineyards).
Sir Percy's death was a shock, too. He literally died while I was working.
The only thing I can say is that, as much of a shock as it is, your Sara
crossed the Rainbow Bridge quickly. She is there, waiting, with my Percy
and your other two furkids who crossed over this year, and all the
wonderful furkids (skydivers, pilots, landlubbers and sailors alike) who
have gone ahead to greet us when we get there.
When Lady Di was killed, Queen Elizabeth said something like, the price of
great love is great pain. The measure of your grief is the measure of your
love. Sara had a great life, thanks to you. I know she gave more than she
received--all of these hounds seem to do that, just naturally. But you gave
a great life to a magnificent hound of utter courage and pure love.
The drool of precious memories to your entire clan...
Leftenant Lea Pierce
Houndslave to Adm. JED "Snatch" Basset
Admiralty of Sonoma County
By order of Hounds Majesty's Service, Golden Gate Basset Rescue

> particular kind of surgery than the regular vet does--and he's a surgeon
> because he likes doing surgery, so he's going to be eager for an
> opportunity to do what he likes.
>
> If we have the surgery done, he said it'd involve an overnight stay in a
> recovery ward staffed around the clock, and Elsinore would have pain meds
> whenever she seems to need them. She'd go home the next day with pain meds
> as well. The first week wouldn't be a lot of fun (having to wear an
> E-collar won't help) but she should be back to herself again after the
> stitches are out.
>
> De-bulking the tumor wouldn't completely remove it. The surgeon won't be
> able to get all the little tendrils this type of cancer puts out. But the
> lump removal would buy her more time, maybe even enough to die of an

> rump).
>
> Elsinore's a good candidate for this kind of surgery since, with the
> exception of the tumor, she's in superb health and has plenty of stamina.
> This is also the time to get the tumor out because it's still not even the

> the dividing cells in it will reach a point where there are so many cells
> dividing themselves in half and then each in half again and each of those
> in half and so on, that the tumor's growth rate will become very
> noticeable. Sort of like compounding interest, back in the old days when
> there was enough of an interest rate to make saving a gratifying thing to

> doesn't leave much skin to work with for subsequent times. But really, our
> savings (thanks in part to years of crummy
> interest rates that are like that of a tumor growing at glacial speed)
> can manage only one of these surgeries anyway.
>
> If we decide to do nothing, the tumor will reach the point of being too
