Twirl’s cancer has reappeared. At this point there is nothing that could be done short of expensive and heroic measures that might not matter more than a few days anyway. So instead of subjecting her to endless vet visits, stress and experimental treatments, we are just going to take it a day at a time.

After losing Tazzy, I swore to myself that I would never allow another critter to suffer just because I can’t make that important decision and let them go. I hold to that vow. I started holistic measures for Twirl, prefering a softer approach versus the harsh contempary meds available. I am feeding her aloe vera, a chinese herb and red clover. We will just have to see how it goes.

For now, she is upstairs with the kittens, away from the other group and away from the sun. She is not in pain- not right now anyway. The lesions forming are early lesions. I don’t know if she has a day, a week, a month. Time will tell.
