Eye Cancer

[Theresa_F]

Poor old Cairo had cancer again, and am waiting to hear from the AHT at Newmarket as to when he can go up and hopefully have radiotherpy again to remove it. Rather upsetting as it is nearly 3 years to the day since we last found it.

Thought some of you might be interested to see what eye cancer looks like.

Anyway fingers crossed the old boy will be treated and we have more years of fun with him.

Big hugs coming your way and a polo for Cairo

Is it that white blob near his tear duct?

Sorry to hear it's returned, but hopefully it will resond again to the treatment.
Thanks for the pics, I hadn't seen it before.

Poor old chap as well as having one eye removed has had this eye operated on several times - most of his third eye lid has been removed and he has a scar by the tear duct - hence we will spend anything to preserve his eye.

The lumps he now has are in the corner of his eye - and again there are scars from previous treatments.

I always now check eyes - Chancer is getting quite used to it and I use UV masks on both when the sun is out for protection.

Fingers crossed that the treatment is once again successful... Like others have said, he sounds like a fighter and you are a very good owner to have spotted it again so quickly.
