I found out this week that my almost 14 year old lab named Lucy has a mass on her spleen. It’s the size of a softball. More than likely it’s cancerous, but I have decided against any further testing or surgery. I was told it will continue to grow, and it could eventually rupture. If it ruptures she more than likely bleed to death unless it’s a small bleed or she’ll become so weak (she already fatigues easily and is losing weight faster than I like) that I’ll have to put her down. It’s just a waiting game. I have no idea if I have days, weeks, or months left with her. It feels like Russian roulette because you never know. It could rupture at any time. It sucks thinking about losing two dogs in a matter of months, but I knew it would eventually get to this point since they were so old. It’s still hard.
