Subject: Lymphoma question / Merry's Recovery

I have been searching the archives and reading the recent posts
regarding Lymphoma. Can someone tell me the difference between
juvenile Lymphoma & Lymphoma? Also, are there any warning signs I
should be looking for that may indicate she's getting more lumps?
I'm hoping the chemo will prevent anymore from growing.

Merry is doing very well this week. She is getting stronger every
day. So strong that she's decided she doesn't want to take her shot
of meds anymore. Even though I scruff her pretty good she still
tries to twist her body. Pricking her with the needle doesn't seem
to bother her, but as soon as I hit the plunger and she feels the
meds she gives a squeek and starts twisting. I'm still doing an ok
job but boy am I getting dirty looks! Thank goodness for ferretone
and treats! The stitching on her belly is starting to scab over. I
got worried because I thought she was licking it. When I talked to
the vet they told me it was normal to scab over. That was a relief.

I really liked reading the mommy instinct thread. These fuzzies have
so much love to give! Dooks, Trish ~ Merry, Pippin & Zira
