<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Dear Drool family.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I am requesting drool for Colt. Last night I was
sitting on the couch petting him when I noticed his lymph nodes in his neck were
all swollen. So it was off to the vet this morning. He is not acting sick. He is
still eating, drinking, pooping & peeing as normal. Just the
swollen lymph nodes. The vet said that his tonsils are inflamed and he has
an infection in his sinuses along with the swollen neck lymph nodes.
However the lymph nodes in his back legs are also swollen and that concerns him
that Colt could have lymphoma. My heart feels like it is being
crushed. Doc put him on a 2 week regime of ampicillin for the
infection...and hopefully that is all that it is. But if the antibiotics
don't bring the swelling of the lymph nodes down within 2 weeks, then
we know that we are dealing with lymphoma. So PLEASE send any extra drool Colts
way and say a little prayer that he does not have lymphoma and that he has a
full recovery from his sinus & tonsil infection and the swollen lymph nodes
goes down and back to normal. And maybe a little "remain calm and have
faith in God & doG" drool for the momma. I am trying to think positive
and have faith that he will be fine...but I am scared to death that my precious
boy will be making that journey to the bridge way to soon. He is only
6.</FONT></DIV>
