Sad news ...
In the middle of a bizarre, Corona dominated week, we had to take Poeka to the vet. She had developed breathing problems and wasn't her energetic self anymore. The vet couldn't hear her heart at all and an x-ray showed that there was a lot of liquid in her body. The vet extracted more than 250 milliliters of golden-brown liquid from her chest, which gave Poeka a lot of relief. Two days later we returned for an echo and the diagnose was that Poeka had developed a form of cancer: mesothelioma. This a lung related cancer.
Now she is back home and on medication. She is eating and drinking better now, and all we can do is be there for her for the time she has left. We'll just have to wait and see.
