Melba does not have cancer
Hi the
My SIL has asked me to thank all of you for your thoughts, purrs, and prayers for Melba. They got the test results back earlier than expected and they were negative for cancer. She appears to have had a flare-up of her IBS and is having some steriods for a while but seems to be eating well now. They were advised to wait until she is completely healed before bringing a second cat into the house so my SIL's dad will take Sylvester when he comes home today. Susan M Otis and Chester |

Might I ask why they removed her spleen, then? It is a very painful operation and seems it was not needed. I'd be asking questions about that. Tweed |

Glad that is all sorted out. Now you can stop worrying about Star and Melba, and hopefully get a good night's sleep soon. -- Marina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki. |

Last week, I was attending the funeral of a friend who had died of pancreatic cancer. He was one of the lucky ones, having a relatively healthy year or so after diagnosis, but it's ultimately so deadly, I really hate to see anyone getting it. |
