AMAZING NEWS!!!
A little bit of backstory: I discovered a lump near Chaos’s rib cage on May 3rd. On May 5th, our vet diagnosed the lump as spindle cell sarcoma, a connective tissue cancer. Two weeks after finding the lump, it “disappeared.” We were not able to find it again, and neither could the vet on the day of Chaos’s surgery, May 27th. Our vet excised the area where the cancer was originally found, and they sent those tissues off to the lab to be examined.
Chaos Update: our vet just called and said that the two masses they removed last week showed no signs of cancer. They said it’s hard to explain why the cancer was no longer present, but that sometimes cancer will regress when it’s poked (as it was in the initial biopsy involving a fine-needle aspiration).
Now our focus will be to make sure Chaos stays healthy and start doing biannual check ups as well as regular physical home examinations for any new lumps or masses. We still have another week of recovery time before Chaos has her many sutures removed, but we wanted to share this incredible update. We’re thankful for whatever happened in Chaos’s biology, and I’ll take miracles wherever I can get them these days 💚🫶🏼
Thank you all so much for continuing to check in on us. If I haven’t responded to your messages, please know that your concern and support is so so appreciated!
