[Home-on-the-range] Update on Comet

[Meg Silkey]

I'm so very glad that she didn't have any more than that one tumer. I'm also very glad that she made it through the surgery and is doing well. We will continue to keep her and you in our prayers.
Love you both very much.

Subject: [Home-on-the-range] Update on Comet


      Hello Everyone, 

      I am writing to update on Comet’s condition.  She and I went to K-State University Veterinary clinic on this Tuesday the 12th.  There Comet went through pre-surgery examination.  One point, I got a scare by being told that Comet might have another tumor in her abdomen.  The clinic did ultrasound and it turned out that growing of a tumor in her abdomen was a false alarm. 

      Wednesday the 13th from 8:00AM she had her full CAT scan and by 10:05AM she was on the surgical table.  The operation was done by 1:00PM that afternoon.  It went well and a team of veterinarians were able to take out the tumor completely.  Although she is still under critical condition and monitored by ICU staff, she is certainly making good progress on her condition.  She is breezing on her own.  Oxygen is still being supplied through her nose tube.  She also has a tube in her chest o pull out all the fluid in her chest due to the pressure of the tumor.  Her lung was pretty smashed because of the pressure, but now tumor being out I am hoping it would expand back to normal. 

      I greatly appreciate your emotional and mental support.  Thank you so very much for keeping your good thoughts and continuing your prayer for Comet’s recovery. 

      Sincerely, 

        

      Chikako Mochizuki
