    Worried about Taboo

    While her eye IS healing, she developed an open sore on her upper lip. It is moist and smelly. We fear it is a squamous cell cancer. (I believe that is what the vet called it, all I know is it is a fast growing BAD cancer)

    And her appetite is way down.

    And she has a very stuffy nose, that I assumed was a "cold", but am now thinking it is related to this lesion.

    While she is a very strong little girl, I am not sure she can beat this.

    It's so unfair that our furkids get illnesses such as this. If only they could talk, especially when sick. Prayers are going up for Taboo right now, Jen. Keep the faythe.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    Prayers for dear Taboo, that this is nothing serious.
