update on Sam and thank you for all the vibes! working! he is feeling pretty good. have some days of not wanting to eat . he is a champ taking his pills. he has no idea he has TCC bladder cancer. it does hurt my heart that the group I am on for TCC has pups diagnosed at the same time that are getting their angel wings. TCC is horrid. it is very aggressive and can change in an instant with a blockage. doing all I can, meds, chinese rx herbs and other pills. he is playing with his toys, enjoying life for whatever time we have. no one is promised tomorrow, so we live each day to the fullest. quality over quantity. Today is another good day! keep the good vibes coming .. thank you all so much. sorry have been mia , had to get some diagnostic follow up tests for me.

sam and I send hugs n head smooches

@Sheldon13 , favorite is still the duck. and grateful he has energy and happy to play. he has no idea he has bladder cancer. lots of powders, pills, meds on top of his seizure pills 2x a day. he is such a good boy. thank you for the continued prayers. so hard to see others in the TCC bladder canine group to be see their pups deteriorating health, peeing blood etc and several diagnosed at the same time as Sam.

@pussiette every day a gift. I know it can change on a dime. a friends pup passedy recently from TCC cancer, she kindly gifted me her babies medication supplement (yunnan baiyao ) to help when Sam's starts to pee blood / clots again. so many losses soo soon with the aggressive nature of canine bladder cancer.
my vet said it is palliative care. I will keep him comfortable and promised to be his voice when the time comes.

I pray he will enjoy his 8th Birthday christmas day Dec 25 ( he and diabetic zolo bubba bear litterrmates double birthday). I worry it may be his last. but I can't ruin today worrying about tomorrow. he lives in the moment enjoying cuddles and his duck. lol so funny taught the boys to cuddle. all 142 lbs of him thinks he is a lap cat.

thank you all for your thoughts and prayers
