Yesterday was a worrisom day. Thor slept a lot. When he first diagnosed I was told if he gets lethargic and just lays around it is a sign of a slow bleed. So we spent the day resting and are continuing that today as much as possible.
Thor's appetite is still right on and he lets me know when it is feeding time. That is a good sign. Plus even though he was laying around he still showed interest in some chew toys. We have a rubber stick that he was chewing on for a while in the afternoon and in the evening he was chewing away on an antler. I am taking those as good signs.
I was looking up some info on fish oil yesterday, when I came across something I had never read about it before. It thins the blood and if you give to your dog, or of you take it youself, it should be stopped before having surgery. This hit me a bit hard. I give Thor fish oil to help with his arthritis. It really has done well for him. Now I have to stop it as I want the tumor to clot. I am fortunate to live near a holistic pet food store and I will go in and see what they have to offer.
So we are still moving on to the next day.....
