I talked with Brady's vet a few hours ago. It's not the news I was hoping for.
The tumor is not the most aggressive, but it's also not the least aggressive. The vet described it as middle of the road. But the pathology report did say that she did not get all of the tumor or cancer cells. The vet is going to talk with the oncologist on Tuesday to see what our options are.
All I know is, I want to go home right now and just hold Brady. I am so sad all of this is happening.
Even if we do have options, I am not sure if I can afford any of them.
I just want to go home and be with him.
That is all.

Oh Caroline,
I'm so sorry to read this news. Brady and the rest of your crew will be in my prayers.
Poor kitty. I know this might be a weird way to look at it, but maybe this is why things never worked out with you finding another home for Brady. Maybe he needed YOU with him for this.
(((Brady & Caroline)))
Like Amy said, I'm so glad Brady is with you. He is adorable and I would love to give him a big hug.

Oh, Caroline, I am so sad to read this post on your blog. I truly had hoped that Brady's surgery this week would take care of this whole thing. Give Brady hugs and kisses from me & Oliver. I'll talk with you later tonight, OK?
Love,
MG
Caroline;
I agree with Amy but my heart goes out to you!! It is never easy when one of your "babies" is ill. I know you will do what is best for him
Oh hon - I'm sorry. :(
Hugs to you both.
See what they say - it may be OK. AND if you want the best feline vet in KC who will work with you financially - let me know

Parker and me will pray and pray and pray. I agree with Amy, Brady was meant to stay with you no matter what the outcome.
Now go love on that little orange boy!
So sorry Caroline.
I am so sorry Caroline. I will definitely be keeping Brady in my prayers!
OH, hon! I am so, so sorry! Brady is in my thoughts and prayers, as are you!!
I'm sorry the news was not so good. I really do love that old cat, and I'm so sad to hear this. However, keep in mind that he may still have quite a bit of time left. Please give him an extra hug for me every night, OK? And when he snuggles with you, know that some of it is a hug for you from me, too. :'(
We're experiencing something quite similar with our 12 year old dog-- cancer as well. Our decision was to provide palliative care and not treat the cancer-- even though we can afford it. We want quality versus quantity and the idea of having a dog trying to fight cancer, deal with the anxiety of vet trips and treatments/surgeries at the same time seems too much to ask. It's good days and bad days, but there days we're sharing together.
My thoughts are with Brady, you and all your concerns.
I like amy's spin on this...maybe he needed you for this.
I am so very sorry to hear this Caroline. I've been thinking of you today and hoping for better news. {{{{{Caroline & Brady}}}}}
I am so sorry I was hoping for good news you are so due
Oh Caroline, I am SO, SO sorry. I am still struggling with the loss of my kiddo as you know, and reading this just brings tears to my eyes because I want SO badly to be there for ya. Please know that whatever you decide is the right thing, he KNOWS you love him.
Oh this is hard. I really agree with what Amy said, though - whether you have the money to do every single thing that veterinary science can do, is beside the point. You have a history with him, you love him, and he knows that - so it's better that he's with you now, rather than anyone else. {{hugs}}
Caroline. I am so so sorry. I hope there is something you can do for him. Sending our love and hugs!
Caroline you've been tagged...go look at my blog
I'm so sorry, Caroline.
Just hug him and love him. That's very important. Don't stress about the $$$. It will all work out.
