My poor nostr:nprofile1qyt8wumn8ghj7ct5d3shxtnwdaehgu3wd3skueqpp3mhxue69uhkyunz9e5k7qpqkumadawgefxjt2c293whsan5sfmdg5tylm0uk39enc6uxxfy5m4sdln07f isn't doing well.

She threw up this morning and wasn't herself. Took her in to test for poisons, etc. All clear. Was fine this afternoon. Then out of nowhere she had a seizure in the evening.

I took her back to the animal hospital. They kept her overnight to watch for further incidents. But only a few hours in she had two more seizures.

The vet's best guess is it's a brain tumor.

Trying to get her in for an MRI next and neurologist consult.

Not in a doom loop yet, but realistically it doesn't sound like there's likely to be good news from the MRI.

Preparing for a gut punch.

Mucho รกnimo Keith

Hope she will be ok

Let's hope he will be well. ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿซ‚

I'm sorry Keith! This is bad news! Strength and courage a hug ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿงก

I hope KumaDawg pulls through this situation.

MRI showed a large brain tumor. A main mass and an aggressive spread all down the meninges surrounding the right side of her brain.

She's on steroids now to try to reduce the pressure. If it happens to be the right kind of tumor (lymphoma), the steroids might actually help fight it. Won't know if it's making any difference until 2-3 days go by.

Have to wait until tonight when the anesthesia wears off to see how well her symptoms are being managed. Will a lucid Kuma come back?

There are some thin hopes for some treatment options but it all depends on where we're at in the next few days. We'll explore what makes sense, but based on what the neurologist said, I'm not pinning my hopes on successful treatment.

As things stand now: I just hope we get a few good days or weeks with her in okay enough shape. Make the most of the last of our time with her.

That has to be enough of a gift, if we're lucky enough to get it.
