Lynn's Bunny
Mama Doe
Jack is still plugging along. He turns 12 on Aug 24th. The tumour on his chest is enormous now and he can't sit comfortably anymore. He has to sit high up or lay down with the mass pushed to his side. He is still eating and has moments of energy but I fear I have to make a decision soon as I've noticed a new issue.
His eyes are starting to bulge out when his head is down, for instance, when he is eating out of his food bowl. He is also breathing at a faster rate then my other rabbit, who is healthy. I feel sad, frustrated and confused. Trying to decide when to say goodbye is so difficult. I'm terrified he is going to go into crisis and suffer horribly. The Vet is going to call me tomorrow to have a discussion.
I am thinking of getting an xray of his lungs to see if the cancer has invaded or if he has fluid building up. If so, I think I will have to let him go soon. Do you think I should get the xray?
