The oncologist provided us with paper work to go over at home and discuss and make a decision on what we wished to do, either wait and see or begin the chemotherapy. We have decided to begin the chemo , particularly because of how fast and large the tumor grew, and given the fact that the connected lymph node was clear and it hadn’t spread . We’re hoping the course of chemo will stop it at the site of where the tumor was removed. Thanks again for all the prayers and support.
Take care,

Tim, I feel for you. We just went through two cancer cases in the past year. For what it's worth, chemo was well tolerated by our male. Dogs are tough. The don't complain and always are optimistic. Some of that optimism will rub off on you. Enjoy every second you have with your precious one.
