Razor Update 3

This one is way overdue, but finally we have a somewhat concrete answer. Razor has had lots of trouble in the same leg since his surgery. However, his surgery was very successful and did not fail. Turns out his extreme pain that developed recently is from the head of his femur (upper leg bone). After taking another set of x-rays, our vet, who consulted with 3 or 4 other vets also, is fairly certain he has bone cancer (which is typically very aggressive). It is possible that his surgery sped up the attack of it. It is also possible that he has an infection from the patella (knee) surgery, but that is more unlikely. He is currently on an antibiotic and Prednisone. The long term affects of Pred do not look very appealing. But for now we have decided to take the situation day by day and not put him through any more x-rays (which require sedation) or testing. Dr. Bowman wanted to x-ray his chest to see if it has spread there yet. We don't see where that will gain him any quality of life or time, so we have declined to know at this point. We appreciate your continued prayers for his comfort and happiness in the days, weeks, months? ahead. We love you, Razor!
