Hello NN!
I haven't been around in months- Grad school- but I wanted to give a brief update on Finley, since I received so much support here when he was diagnosed with cancer and through the amputation and all that.
Finley has been healthy and hopping along for the past two and a half years. I found a lump on his side (same side as the amputation, about three inches down from his stump) last Saturday. It was around the size of a marble and hard. The vet was closed and it was a long weekend (of course). I got him in on Wednesday and the vet agreed that it needs to be removed and biopsied.
He is having surgery tomorrow. He is tired- still eating and playing a bit- but he is much calmer, a very un-Finley characteristic. The mass has grown a lot. It is making me so nervous because it is growing so fast. About the size of a golf ball in a week. It is rock hard and he does not like me to touch it.
So, wish us luck tomorrow, through the surgery and then for the waiting game.

Sending good thoughts to Finley and you for a positive outcome at the vet.
