OMG...5 Drops...October 6

When it rains it pours...
What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger...
 God give the most difficult battles to his strongest soldiers...

 SHE'S A TOUGH COOKIE, but I just don't understand. My little is having difficulty urinating...only tiny puddles, 5, 6, 7 drops...holding the position for 30 seconds, 1 minute...Something is not right...

 I get her ready the morning of the 7th...A trip to Dr. Allen this a.m...I just got my car back from a transmission replacement...YIKES....now as I make my way to the vet, its dark, and of course I'm not paying attention...By the time I realize, I am in a school zone, going 25 in a 20. The cop is parked about 20 feel from me, he flips his lights on, and I'm pulled over. My little at my side, he asks where I am going...I look over, and say, "to take her to the vet". I'm beside myself...just had a huge repair, now a ticket...GREAT...Luckily he gave me a warning...Thank you Jesus...I make it to Dr. Allen's in one piece...

WHAT'S THE SCOOP? There is a larger mass that is blocking her urine...TUMOR? "Yes, quite possible", (sigh)..."What now?", "We should call the Internal Medicine doctor to come in and conduct a detailed high definition ultrasound". Dr. Melmed was scheduled for the 7th

 10/7/2013 - All the other organs look good, but there is surely a mass at the neck of the bladder. The sample that was taken was sent down to Texas A&M. The results should arrive early next week. Darby was prescribed a anti inflammatory / fever reducer called Piroxicam. I rushed to the compounding pharmacy, purchased the medication and gave her her first pill in the car with some peanut butter....Now to wait.

This is where Darby was shaved for the ultrasound
