Orbit had some surgery to remove tumors which grew back. Then we tried an experimental injection to shrink the new ones, which possibly slowed them down but did not stop them. She then developed multiple tumors on both sides, more than could be removed considering her age. When one became necrotic and she chewed herself open, it was time. I miss her greatly.
