My Cara (sig pic) has been diagnosed with inoperable cancer. It is in her chest and her lungs. Chemo won't have an effect. She has been given 3 - 6 months!! I seriously was hysterical when the vet called, i remember actually hearing this noise and thinking omg this is me.
I have spent 2 days with the most horrible feeling in my stomach and crying (not in front of Cara). But....this is where it ends. If conventional means aren't an option then i will try every other option. I have been giving her reiki anyway but there are other things like chinese medecine, homeopathic etc. I have been given lot's of ideas from friends of friends that are experts in natural healing. I have Milk Thistle, neem, linseed, omega3 and various other things that i have never heard of. someone sent her pranic cleansing last night.

So lets see where it takes us. I will be keeping a close eye on her weight, change of behaviour, any signs of discomfort as to me quality comes before quantity but I am thinking positively now rather than thinking this is the end.

So wish us luck please because I just can't lose my girl. She is the most gentle, sweet, loving, funny, sensitive,beautiful dog i have ever met and I need her beside me. we are together constantly and can't imagine my life without her.... so i'm not going to.

If anyone has any suggestions I will gladly accept them.
thanks xxxxx
 
Oh no I am so sorry to hear this. I lost my foundation bitch to lung cancer, I was devastated! No real advice to offer, a friend used reiki and other natural healing remedies on her bitch who had cancer, I don't know if it helped her but in my view if it isn't doing any harm and it helps you feel you are doing everything you can then carry on. She also used colloidal (sp?) silver, putting it in her drinking water.
Hugs to you and Cara.
 
bless you, big hugs im so sorry. Having lost 2 in the space of a year , one 18 months old and the other 15, I really symapthise. I know how heartbreaking this is. You WILL get through it and be there for her in whatever way is best. I dont have much experience of this but i do have a friend whose dog was suddenyl diagnosed with a throat type cancer, she decided to go for chemo even though the odds were poor and Im afraid the outcome wasnt good anyway:( X
 
Good luck, I lost my elderly terrier to cancer after finding a small lump which was the first sign she was actually riddled with it. I hope you do have success but focus just as much on enjoying the time you have left. My thoughts are with you x
 
I have no experience of alternative therapies either but having lost my little furry best friend / constant companion at the end of last year to cancer I thought I would just send some hugs xxxx
 
I am truly sorry to hear this, I know it was your biggest fear and you must be in a terrible state. I dont know of anything Im afraid except perhaps an animal healer if you can find one recommended. I will pm later then we can have a good chat, vibes and hugs to you both. xx
 
Thanks ladies. Sorry for all you who have been in this position. Dobiegirl, i thought of you when i was typing this as you knew a bit of what was going on. I am having a severe wobble here, trying to be strong and positive but it is really hard. I have been on quite a few sites and just putting together a plan of action. I have to tell her nana and papa (her breeders) and just dreading it. They love her to bits. I haven't met anyone who doesn't, she is a proper people person. She likes her doggie pals, 1 in particular but she loves people. I am rambling a bit now, sorry. I am just waiting for the vet to ring me back so I can get some more info on exactly what we are dealing with. 'Know your enemy!'
 
I am so sorry to hear that CM:( there is lots to go on there and I wish you all the success for your girl for you to beable to have her in your life as long as possible ((vibes))) and hugs for you and Cara xx
