Over the summer Crescent developed a lump on hishead, it was flat and round and bout the size of my pad on mythumb. We lazered the whole thing off, stitched hisskin back together, which pulled on his ear because it was a tight fit,and let him heal..a few days later he over heated and had developed aninfection.. the lump had been sent to the lab....
So meds, and living in AC was made to order. He spent the Summer andall this winter living in the livingroom. Because in theSummer thats where he could be in AC. he healed up and was lookinggood, lots of scar tissue around the lump removal site, but he waseating like a pig and acting his normal self... then December struckand his lump was growing back at a rapid rate. I watched it creap uphis ear half an inch in 24 hr time. and it spreed rapidly, down hisface and iunder his chin/jaw, across to his oppsit ear and suroundinghis eye.. all that could be done was to keep him comfortable.. I forgotto mention earlier that the results came back a non dangerous tumor,but that the rate of this rapid regrowth it very much was acting like acancerous tumor.. he started having a hard time keeping weight on, andSunday(jan 2nd)he was hunched and starting grinding histeeth. I had kept him as comfortable as I could untill then, but Icould not ask him to live through pain just because I wasn't ready tosay goodbye.
He rode in my lap to work, and I never let go of him untill he passed over the bridge.
tHe livingroom seems vastly empty now, i came home to an empty cagehtat needed cleaning, there is a 28x42 inch spot on the floor missing acage that had been there for at least a good 6 months.. but moreimportantly there is a hole left in my heart of loosing a baby boy whowas but only a youngster to me. Crescent has missed his 5th birthday,and he missed seeing our new house that we should be moving to in under2 months time. i know he is with his family members who have gonebefore him and his dearest brother Dorian who passed on due to a heartcondition. And I realize he has opened a spot in my heart for somebunnyelse in need, but I wish I could be selfish and keep him here forever.
