If you've seen or followed my other posts, in my first post I mentioned how Rocco had a spindle cell tumor on his back right leg, and was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma in his front right.

Both Vets and the Oncologist suggested we amputate the front, since the tumor in the back is (was) very slow growing, we needed to treat the aggressive one first.

What we least expected to happen, happened. and here we are again devastated. confused. regretting our decision. I don't even know.

The tumor in the back has started growing now. Immediately after the amputation. I don't know if the surgery and stress triggered the growth or something. I don't know. and now he's hopping around on 2 legs. My dog is hopping around on 2 friggan left legs, defying gravity.

My heart hurts. What did we do? What do we do? Regretting everything. Trying to stay positive, hoping that its just a little bigger and he needs to adapt.

I just don't know anymore.

We took him back this morning to have the fentynol patch removed - the vet is absolutely floored that he is walking on 2 left legs.

Our Rocco is a very  special case, and next week when the staples are removed he is going to have a closer look at the tumor but he says it looks normal still - how can it be normal if Rocco is trying not to use it anymore???

For the one silver lining of the day - he says Rocco is healing super quick and super beautifully.
