About 2 or 3 weeks ago we noticed he was lookinga wee bit bedraggled, he seemed to be losing weight again and the vomitingreturned. Last Thursday there was some Blood in his vomit so we had him intothe vet the next morning. The Vet felt a lump in his stomach that he thoughtwas a blockage but wanted to x-ray to be sure. The X-ray showed a growth in hisstomach, the Vet said it would be a good idea to operate immediately, which hedid. Laura (My wife) then got the call to say the growth had spread all overhis stomach and was in his Liver, the Vet said it would be best not to wakehim. Clyde was cremated on Saturday, hopefully we can take him home today.Clyde was a huge part of our lives for 10 years and we miss him terribly. Laurais suffering with horrible guilt as she didn’t say goodbye properly, I keeptelling her he was only going for an X-Ray, she wasn’t to know.
