Lacey
Please say a silent prayer for Lacey (Face)� She was one of the rescues that came in with the 34.

She was adrenal� and underweight.  She was eating and doing ok but we thought maybe a touch of depression or helicobacter.  However, last night she got worse.  She weighes just over a pound (1.02) and can�t really move too well.  Feeling her tummy this morning I thought it might be a blockage�.

She came to work with me today and then off to the vets.  They did an x-ray on her and found a mass.  They were not sure if it�s a tumor or blockage.  They didn�t know if they can remove it either.  Or if she would survive surgery.  I told them to do the sub-q fluids on her and try to get an IV in her and then do surgery.  I knew the surgery had a huge risk and cost� but  I can�t just let her die without trying. 

They opened Lacey up and found a huge tumor growing inside her.  It was attached to several organs.  There was no way to remove it�

My Lacey girl is now at the bridge.  I am in tears here at work�.. I could not be with her when she passed� but I told her about the Rainbow Bridge this morning and told her how much I loved her and that it was ok�

She was cremated and her remains came back to us.

Please hug your babies a little closer in memory of Little Miss Lacey Face.  Her group� Delta Force will surely miss her.  That morning when I pulled her out of the cage, the other two kids (Spatz and Lady) were laying with her at the bottom.
