Yet again the worst possible news

Davide just called with the details for Dylan's tests on Friday. They show that he has not just got aggressive cancer in his bone, but also a mass growing in the hollow part of the bone. It is just getting worse and worse... :-(
He will call back tomorrow with regards to an appointment for a biopsy... though I will ask some questions about it to make sure it is the right thing to do as of course like any procedures, there are risks to it. They are not sure whether this is a primary or secondary cancer. It is the wrong place for primary cancer, but they cannot find any primary site for it either...

Dylan has been on Metacam and Pardale since Saturday and it is helping quite a lot. Dylan is definitely more comfortable and much brighter again, he walks on all four legs again, but it is still painful enough for him to take the weight off that leg completely when standing. So from tonight, I will also add the Tramadol to the mix. Hopefully that will improve things further.

I feel so helpless and desperate.
