COCO

Hi Everyone! Well, I know that it has been a while since I have updated my blog, but life has been kinda busy here lately. Not really sure where to start. I guess I can start with news about my dog, Coco.

When I was in Peru, I took CoCo to stay with my dad and while I was gone she quit eating. My dad took her to the vet and her liver enzymes were very elevated. They put her on some medicine until I could get back and take her to regular vet. When we got home, her enzymes were still elevated a little bit, but not too terribly high. So we were just going to monitor her for a while. Well, about three weeks ago, I woke up and CoCo's belly was really bloated, so I took her back to the vet. Dr. Anderson did some tests and found a mass on her liver. He thinks that it is probably cancer. Right now, we are not going to do anything except give her fluid pills and keep monitoring her. I know that I will eventually have to put her to sleep, but we are just going to wait until she starts showing signs of pain. She is doing fine right now. CoCo is 10 years old and has been with me through alot.
