First the good news. After trying and trying. . .
On Thursday, January 13, Charlie rolled over!
(This is actually the third time. I missed getting the first two on camera.)
And the bad news - on New Year's Eve, Marc found a lump on Lullabelle's belly during a belly rub. We took her to the vet that day and they removed it and sent it for testing. (The vet thought LB was fabulous - she just did a local and took out the lump while petting her. She joked that hey probably could have done anything as long as Lullabelle was getting a belly rub!)
We got the results on Friday the 14th, and the lump was cancerous. It is the same type that Sandy had in 2003 - a grade 2 mast cell tumor. We will take LB back to the vet tomorrow where they will put her under, take more tissue out and check the margins. Hopefully the margins will be clean, the cancer will not have spread, and LB can continue to be our care-free, loving dog.
