face=Arial>As usual, just a bit behind. I am having Ben send drool out to
those that need it. It goes out to Ophelia who had her anal sacks removed,
and one of them had a cancerous mass. Tons of drool and prayers that all
the cancer was caught, and she will be around for many years. Hopefully
the vet will be wrong and she will have more that a year or two left.
Drool is also on the way to poor Maggie who has been so suffering from
allergies. It has to be awful for her as well as Marlene, her slave, who
has to watch her suffer so and can't help make her feel better. Hopefully
something can be done to help end her misery. Lastly it goes out to Lucy,
who too is battling some terrible allergies. Hopes the bumps go away, and
relief comes to her soon. It is also going out to any others I have
missed. In addition to Ben's drool, I will be praying for
all.</FONT></DIV>

face=Arial>On another note, I took Ben to the vet two weeks ago, and there
was a bump on his ear. Vet measured it and said to watch it. Over the weekend it
hit me that I wanted it looked at better, as Cheyene died from hermangiosarcoma,
which was just a little bump, and then Juliet left due to splenic cancer. So
back to the vet he went today, and the vet did a needle thing to it. After a
while she came back and said there were blood cells and round cells, which
indicated it was a tumor of some sort. So Ben will be going in soon to have it
removed. The vet said that more than likely it would be benign, but I do not
want to take a chance. I want to know for sure. I will let you know when he goes
in. Those things just make me nervous.
