A little luck

We had to drop Chase off this morning for a small surgery. I had taken him in last week for his routine visit and asked the vet to look at a growth on his cheek. She took a sample of it and we sent it to pathology because she could not tell from looking at it if it was a cyst or a tumor. The pathology came back "inconclusive", but there was a presence of some icky cells that can be aggressive. To be safe, we took the earliest appointment to have the growth removed along with the area around it. We hope that we caught it early enough and that we got all of it removed before it could spread. Chase is happy to be home, but not very excited about having to wear the cone for a couple weeks. We are hoping for a quick recovery!
