It's over

It is with a heavy heart that I report that my precious baby Jake passed away on Tuesday Dec 18. He became weak over the weekend and by Monday was vomiting, unable to stand or hold up his head.  His doctors think he had a reaction to the Chemotherapy, but we cannot be 100% sure. He went into respiratory arrest and  did put up one hell of a fight, but the cancer won the battle.  The cyberknife treatment gave us an additional nine months with him and I would not have traded one second of the time.   We hope our posts here will give encouragement and support to other families who face this type of cancer as well as information on making decisions about treatment for your beloved fur baby.
