We got Gypsy's results back today, from the biopsy last week. What was thought to be a water infection is actually cancer of the lymph glands. I knew it was a possibility but was hoping that it would be a water infection, as the vet had initially suspected. She has started on steroids, and a cancer drug in tablet form, so hopefully those will help her. I'm gutted though, and at the moment I can't look at her without bursting into tears. She seems like her usual self, so it's taking a while to sink in properly

sorry to hear that, hope they can help her as much as possible.

give her plenty more hugs and kisses, one good thing about our pets is they can't get sad about it. Hope she's not in pain :luck: :luck: :huggles:
