They did an ultra sound on Mike yesterday and sent the results to the specialist he is supposed to see on the 17th. This morning, the specialist called the PC doctor and said that this is out of his league and Mike needs to be referred to someone else. The specialist is a gastrointestinal surgeon. Now we have to wait additional days until another surgeon is lined up. I felt the mass and it feels now like it had a baby? There is an additional mass on top of the last one that is smaller? It makes no sense to me and it is scaring both of us with just the unknown aspect of what the devil is going on?
I know when I go to see him now and come in quietly just to observe him, he is pensive and quiet and looks very worried. I wish I could go see him every day, but right now, that is not possible. I know he feels quite alone right now, and I know that I do as well. Sleeping is difficult for me- I am usually wide awake by 3:00 a.m. my mind will not stay quiet. The doctor told me today that they are working very hard for him to be home by Christmas, but he doesn’t think it will be possible.
I’m so very sorry things are so rough for you both. As promised, another small donation today for the vet bill.
Praying for Mike and for you…
I had tried to post a comment, but nothing showed up, so if I repeat myself, forgive me.
It must be very worrisome to have a specialist tell you that he is not qualified to handle Mike’s problem. Keep after them, as I am sure you will. Poor Mike. It would be impossible, I think, for him not to feel alone, even with loved ones by him. I continue to hope for good news…
