Murphy's Biopsy results

Murphy's biopsy results are in and it is melanoma.

We are headed to LSU Vet School tomorrow to meet with the oncologist.

I pray that it is localized. I don't know how I could have found it any sooner.

Comment by Clifford, Cloud, Jake..and Kim on August 31, 2011 at 1:47am: Linda - you're a great mom for finding this so early, hopefully it is just one spot and they can take care of it relatively easily. Clifford sends big hugs to his buddy and we are all sending good thoughts and prayers.

Comment by Nicky, Riley & Boris on August 31, 2011 at 12:05am: Oh dear, I am so sorry to hear about this. I am sure you found it very early and now praying that it is treatable with a positive outcome for Murphy. He will be in my thoughts. We are crossing everything crossable.

Comment by Barbie on August 30, 2011 at 11:36pm: I am so sorry to hear this, Linda! I know what you are both going through right now and it seems frightening, but there is hope. You know Hercules' story ... Please ask about Piroxicam. It was a miracle drug for Hercules. He's 82 lbs. and takes 30mg per day (split in 2 capsules: 20mg and 10mg). For the first 2 weeks, it did nothing and the tumor just kept growing, to the point he couldn't close his mouth to chew. Then, overnight, the tumor shrunk to almost nothing. From what I've read, it works on skin cancer also. I am hopeful that Murphy can be another Miracle Dog. Sending love and prayers your way.
