She just got out of surgery. They removed the mass. It was attached to her bowel and pancreas, but didn’t invade them...doctor had to remove a small part of pancreas and said it was very close to major arteries. He said it was tricky but managed to get it all out. X-rays were negative for any masses in her chest cavity, so that is good. They are keeping her until at least Saturday, they want to make sure she doesn’t have any blood clots and want to make sure she gets her appetite back. He’s going to call tomorrow morning with an update, but said it went well. I love this dog...she follows me everywhere. I hope she makes it through this.

Good to hear George. It’s a shame we don’t get to keep them longer than the short years we get.
Hoping for the best outcome possible Sarge.
Wife had a pillow made for our daughter at graduation. I forgot about it but saw it again today. Hope it helps her while she's at college.

Talked to the vet tonight...first thing he said was “I absolutely love your dog...she is the sweetest, most friendly dog that I’ve ever met”. She wagged her tail and gave him the lovey-dovey face when he went to check up on her. He said she did eat some food and went to the bathroom. They are going to call tomorrow morning to let us know if it’s ok to bring her home...right now they are just worried about blood clots. Hopefully we get some good news in the coming days about the biopsy. A couple times a day I’ll go to call her name or look for her before realizing that she’s still at the vet recovering. She can’t jump on the furniture or beds for two weeks so we spent today sectioning off areas so that she will just lay in one of her beds on the floor. If I’m on the couch, I’ve got to remember to put something on the couch in my place if I go to the kitchen or bathroom, because I know she’ll jump up there as soon as I leave. She loves being on the couch with me.....
Poor little fella got a bit of infection in his incision so it was back to the vet for some antibiotics 
Maybe Jesse wants the removed parts back?He might have been briefly
