Your situation is unique and you’ll probably need an evaluation at the LSU vet school—they can help you with prognosis and decisions about the care.

I’m currently going through cancer with my pup and decided to do surgery and treatment options, it’s just such a different form of the disease from yours that I can’t help much. Just spend every day with her and make the most of the time you have left.

Thanks to all of you. I am considering LSU, and feel like the rest of you. Loving her means making hard choices.

At this moment, I am leaning toward just letting her live her life out and making her comfy. I can't imagine living without a paw even for a year.

I really appreciate you all. It's such a hard choice, and it's nice to have the support.

LSU vet school Oncology department is amazing. My baby had lymphoma. He went through chemo for two years. It prolonged his life for an additional two years. Without the treatment, he would have only lasted another couple of months. Supposedly, it is not painful for our fur friends. Now, I do not know if I would do it again, but at the time, it was my only choice. It is very expensive. I pray that you find comfort in your decision. I am sorry. Its an almost no win situation. I do, however, recommend LSU Oncology. They are amazing
