    Prayers for you that you have the strength to get thru all of this and remain positive for Raven. Prayers for Raven that being young will help and that the doctors can work miracles. They happen every day, with all of us praying for it, surely it will come to be.

    To my dear ferret angels, I know cancer took you from me, could you see what you can do for dear Raven? Please.

    I am pasting this, what I posted in the thread in General:

    Dear Pet Talkers,

    I have witnessed in the past what a caring and wonderful community of people this is, but there is just no way to realize the incredible impact of it until you are the one being helped. I feel so overwhelmed it is very difficult to try to come up with adequate words. This situation has been such a shock to me, a nightmare. Who in the world thinks that their puppy might develop malignant cancer before they are a year old? And oral cancers being some of the most aggressive.

    I had another shock when I saw this thread. Vela, my dear friend who has gone through the emotional roller coaster with me, from the time I adopted my little imp until now when we are fighting for her life, has been there every step of the way. I could not have hoped for a truer friend. And I feel the same for all of you, all who have offered support, prayers, offers of help. Every last shred of it will never, ever be forgotten by me.

    I still do not know as much as I would like, but Raven is going in Monday to see a specialist who has done many of these types of surgeries. He will be assessing her and deciding how radical and how much will be necessary, whether some of the bone needs to be taken and so on. Right now the next step all depends on his assessment, but the specialist (Dr. Koblik) will probably be doing the surgery. I am not sure if he would take her to his clinic or how that works yet. I have to drop her off Monday morning at my vet's office and he will be calling me with Dr. Koblik's recommendations when he sees her, and a more ballpark idea of what cost is involved. The less they have to deal with going into the jawbone, the less cost will hopefully be involved.

    I just know my girl is going to beat this. We have a purpose together, she and I. I am grateful beyond any ability to express through words to all of you. Thank you from Raven and I, from the bottom of our hearts.

    ---

    The thing is growing back very quickly, and is a bit more spread than it was the first time. I just want something done ASAP. Hopefully by next week sometime, all of this will be over and we will truly be back on the road to recovery.

    All of the above!!! Plus: Prayers for the doctors and gratitude that you have found a specialist who can see Raven so quickly and make a recommendation about treatment... Angel GiGi and Churchie, Poco and Jasmine, this is one of those times when i need you, please...

    It just breaks my heart every time I think about it. I know she can beat it, as well. I, too, will be glad she's on the road to recovery. I think I feel about Dasher the way you feel about Raven. It's meant to be. And we must have a happy ending to this. Or should I say beginning?

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.

    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Jess,

    I hope you don't mind but I've enlisted the help of another forum & my myspace friends as well. I've asked all of them to keep Raven in their thoughts.

    We're all here for you two..... keep your head up.

    You guys are really the best. I can't imagine not having PT prayers to help us through this, I know they are helping, I feel so much more confident that we will beat this.

    I took some new pics of it earlier. Keep in mind a week ago it was not visibly there at all. The vet had taken it out and cauterized it and there was actually a bit of a depression where it had been.













    Obviously she is not worried about it .

    Jess,

    I wanted to share another story with you - a lady on another forum owns this website and it was uplifting for me to read. Gives me even 10x's more hope for Raven!

    Those pictures are beautiful, Jess. I love her smile and those eyes are so beautiful.
