Good morning Joan (@soupycampbell), that sudden pain had to have been scary. I’m glad it subsided on its own. Before my tumors were under control, the only one that I ever felt was in the liver, that would give me a sharp pain that would pass fairly quickly. I’m not sure if the tumors are causing your pain, and if you have any increased shortness of breath, don’t be afraid to call for help. There is a lot that could be causing this.
Your pup is lucky to have you! She sounds so attached to you, but I’m glad your granddaughter will take good care of her if/when the time comes. I’m sure your family will honor your decision to have her with you, how sweet.
Do you know when the radiation will start? Have you had any additional pain episodes?
