ついに「タイムを我が家に迎えたい」とお声がかかりました＼(^o^)／
お話が進みお届けの日程も決まったところで、譲渡前の健康診断の為病院へ
触診OK、聴診OK、血液検査OK、エコー検査・・・あれっ？脾臓に何かができてる！！！
Thyme is looking for her forever home while helping out at
many recruiting events for pet foster parents. Finally, she heard the important
words: “I want her in my home!” =D
Right around when talks ensued and her adoption date was
settled, we went to get a checkup before taking her to her new home. Heart?
Good. Hearing? Good. Blood test? Good. Ultrasound scan? ....what? Something's
been growing on her spleen!!!
脾臓の腫瘤の場合２/３が悪性、１/３が良性病変といわれています。
先生の話から悪性の可能性が高そう(>_<)
譲渡のお話を保留にして検査の予定を組みました。
When it comes to spleen tumors, they say about 2/3 are
malignant, and 1/3 are benign.
And the doc said it’s very likely to be malignant.
We had to put her adoption on hold to schedule in
an examination.
が、待てよ。全身麻酔をかけての検査をするなら切除しちゃった方が良くない？？
良性だとしても大きさからして破裂して大出血する可能性もある。この先体調を崩すとか、高齢で麻酔の危険性が高くなって手術したくても出来なくなるかもしれない。今なら健康状態は良いし手術にも耐えられる。
But wait! If you’re going to put her through a test that
puts her whole body under anesthesia, wouldn’t it be better to just cut out the
tumor?
Even if it is benign, it’s so huge that if it
ruptures, it might cause a large loss of blood. Down the line, because of her
old age and her potentially weakened state, there’s a great danger in using
anesthesia, to the extent that we may not be able to do surgery even if we
wanted to. Now is the time to grit our teeth and bear surgery because her
health is still in relatively good condition. 結論 とっちゃいましょ
The verdict: Take it out.
先生と相談した結果、切除することにしました
After consulting with the doctor, we decided to remove it.

| でたよ、ママのお得意「とっちゃいましょ」Mom
said it—her classic “Take it out!” |
そして手術。脾臓の摘出をしました。
And so surgery—we had to take out the spleen.
＊実はこの日、さくらの手術、タイムの手術、トイプー♀の不妊手術＋αとうちの子だけで3件も手術してもらいました。
先生、お疲れ様でした。ありがとうございます
そして、支払いが怖い・・・
Truth is on this same day, we had both Sakura and Thyme’s
surgeries as well as a female toy poodle’s sterilization—3 girls from my end in
one sitting.
Thanks doc for all your hard work.
I’m a little afraid of the bill….
退院後１０日の今日、抜糸をしました。病理検査の結果は・・・
良性でした！！♪───Ｏ（≧∇≦）Ｏ────♪
あ～～本当に良かった。
And now today, 10 days after discharge from the hospital, we
had some stiches done. And the result of the hospital examination:
IT WAS BENIGN!!!!!!
Ohhhhh thank God.
いつも譲渡前の健康診断は「何も出ませんように」ってドキドキ（笑） でも、譲渡後すぐに発病なんていうことは避けたいからね。
今回、もしタイムの事が白紙になったとしてもそれはそれでよかったと思う。譲渡の話が出なかったら特に様子がおかしいわけでは無い今、健康診断をすることはなかったから。腫瘍に気付かないまま時がたって腫瘍破裂で大出血して命を落としたかもしれない。
健康で手術ができる状態の時に見つけられて良かったよ
ねっ、タイム！
My heart is always racing worried that something is going to pop up in the checkups before the kids’ forever homes take them home. But you know, I want to avoid sicknesses of any kind from happening right after adoption.
Even though Thyme got the all-clear from the hospital, I’m glad we went through this ordeal. Up until now, she hadn’t been acting weird at all, so if we hadn’t been working towards a real adoption, I would never have taken her in to get the exam. Time may have passed letting the tumor grow without anyone realizing it, and rupturing into a big loss of blood at the expense of her life.
We are so lucky we managed to find it at a time when she could still undergo surgery.
Right, Thyme??
