Hi all, just wanted to thank you first of all for all of your words of encouragement. Cadence and I both felt the pawsitive mojo power going on these past few days from you all as we anxiously awaited her getting the test on the lump. She sends her licks to all of you in thanks. Well, here is the medical summary of Cadence's visit yesterday:

Fine needle aspirates of the dermal mass revealed small amounts of fluid and thick white material.  In-house review of this sample was most consistent with a benign cyst, however, the sample was submitted for evaluation by a pathologist.  These results should be available in 1-2 days and we will call as soon as we receive them.  The dermal mass be inflamed for a day or two due to the aspiration today.  

So we don't know the exact results yet until it gets back from pathology but it does look like it would be a benign cyst. it was a little bump and before the appointment I even marked her fur over the area with a red dry erase marker so the Dr. could find it easily. I kept loosing where it was which is why I finally marked it. Also they did an all over check up and felt her abdomen. They weighed her and she actually gained a little weight. They also reviewed some X-rays she had taken on the 11th of last month and that was great too. We had opted out of the 6th chemo (which is what yesterday's visit was supposed to be for originally) and ended up keeping the appointment to have her lump looked at. Funny how things work out. Poor thing ended up getting poked with a needle more times than what she would have had for her chemo! 6 times poked instead of just once. But as usual she is a trooper and now we will carry on with a good diet, the supplements and lots of hugs and love. The chemo chapter is over and hopefully no more lumps after this one! I will update again when the final results come in.
