F*$k Cancer

[Bratch]

This forum has an especially deep hatred for cancer.

We had to put our beloved Border Collie to sleep on Tuesday. She had started to have seizures/strokes and the suspected diagnosis was a brain tumor/cancer. This was a dog that Todd had described as “doing calculus when she looked at you” so losing mental function was especially hard. The last few months have been hard with her losing coordination but we thought it was just aging. Now that we know she had a tumor it all make more sense how she could go from chasing frisbees to not being able to get up almost overnight.

Hold your pooches tight you might loose them before you suspect it.

I am sorry for your loss. Words are inadequate.

Condolences. We lost our Shepard/Leonberger mix to cancer 9 days ago, so I agree with the thread title.

[LOKNLOD]

No words are adequate, buddy.

Very sorry to hear this as I know the pain. I wish you better days ahead.

[Lex Luthier]

Arrgh. That is a hard one. My condolences.

My condolences. I’m right there with you on the fuck cancer train. It’s taken too many lives too soon, human and animal alike.

Cancer took each of my dogs. I always think of them. I have some idea about your grief.

I am so sorry for your loss. This Is Frankie. He was the best friend I ever had (and probably ever will have). I lost him a year ago to cancer and it still hurts like hell.

Sorry to hear that. Condolences.
