My family is battling enough but now we are adding to it the fact that our beloved dog Maggie, is going in for surgery this morning to remove what is very likely a cancerous tumor on her right leg. 

I’ve explained to the boys what’s going on, without mentioning cancer. They don’t need to carry that burden right now. 

Tonight as I was brushing Maggie, I found another lump. This one is on her back and right in the middle of her spine. That wasn’t there a week or so ago and that’s concerning. 

I’ll let the vet know in the morning and we’ll decide what to do. 

Maggie’s 10 years old and so she’s getting up there in age and surgery becomes more risky. 

Anyway, please keep her and my very worried boys in your thoughts and prayers today. I would really appreciate it….❤️
