To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com
Our own experience is that sometimes pulling out extra stops will get a ferret with lymphoma
extra quality time, and sometimes it won't, so discuss the idea of that with your vet and then
decide.
Some are also helped by adding pain med.
For some, though, the disease has just advanced too far so if it doesn't make sense to pull
out all stops, or if the effect is minimal whenthings are tried, well...
This is something on which there is no right or wrong, there is just a best guess for the
individual and anything done with love based upon the animal's well-being is right by
definition.
