[Gpdd] [HEALTH] piggie with tumor

[Tiffany]

Hey everyone!
I am usually just a lurker. I have received the digest for the last 3 
yrs. or so. We have 4 piggers and I will list them
in the order we got them. G.P.(how original!)(aka Stinker, Jeepers), 
she's the one I have a question about. Then we
got Little One(she was smaller than G.P), then came Snooco(combination 
of snoopy and chocolate). And last but
not least, Cuddles. The least of which who doesn't like to cuddle. She 
definitely does not live up to her name. Crazy pig!
Anyway, G.P is the one that I have a question about. I just found a 
tumor on her left side(Thurs night)(thought and hoped that it
was just a cyst or absess) but I just came back from the vet(Sat) and 
she had done a fine needle aspirate. The vet said that it is
cancer. The type that will come back even with surgery. So my question 
you all is this, what should I do? Should I go ahead with the surgery or 
just try to make her as comfortable as possible? My heart says to go 
ahead with it. The money part of it isn't bothering me. It will cost 
about $200 for the vet to remove both of them. Yes, two. She has two 
tumors. The vet said that they are probably mammary tumors, seeings that 
she has two. The one on the left side is bigger than the one on the 
right side. They also seem to be growing quite rapidly. Oh ya, G.P. will 
be 3½ on Dec 1.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks everyone.

Mom to the four great piggers!!
