Heartbroken

[Cookie2217]

Well today I found out that my 7-year-old sweet Maine Coon Bella most likely has oral cancer my heart is absolutely breaking. We have to take her to a specialist to make sure that is the case but either way she would need surgery that would take part of her jaw. In addition to that I had a wonderful opportunity at a job offer that I lost all because of a mistake that I made a year and a half ago that's followed me to haunt me. I'm just so sad and frustrated right now I could just scream. Just when I thought I was at my lowest point because I'm living in my sister's basement and I was so happy that I was going to get out of here with that new job and getting a place on our own that falls apart right in front of me. Now it's just back to the drawing board one more time to regroup once again and figure things out and then start applying for more jobs that I won't get because of one minuscule mistake.

I am so, so sorry to hear about Bella. I hope that you will be able to find a job in spite of the mistake that you made. I wish you the best with both situations.

I'm so sorry to hear about your troubles. Pets are like people and it is so hard to deal with bad news about their health. Take time to give Bella extra love. As far as the job goes, I have confidence that you will find the strength to persist and keep seeking another job. It's only a matter of time before you find one.

hang in there. I lost my cat last year and to be honest, I cant do it again. Why cant animals live as long as humans. Things will get better

Thank you so much. I'm so sorry for the loss of your beloved cat. I often feel that people give cats a very bad rap and say that they don't have feelings but they absolutely do my Bella is very affectionate and seeks out human attention and snuggles up with me and my husband in bed almost every night. She is my first animal I've ever had which is really emotionally hard for me right now but we are going to do everything and anything to make her feel comfortable happy and at peace as long as we can and if something changes then we need to do what's best for her. If we feel that she is living with pain then we will have to forgo our feelings of pain and let her go over the Rainbow Bridge as they call it to be at peace. My husband cleans out the area where the abscess was and a lot of fluid came out and it went down a lot so we're hopeful that maybe it is just a bad abscess instead of oral cancer. Bella is Paul's emotional support animal and he loves her so very much whenever he's sitting at his computer she always jumps on his lap and spend so much time there and if I'm sitting in my chair she'll jump on my lap and then flop on her side and sit there with me. I have been very lucky for the last 6 years to have had her and we're hoping to have her longer but what will be is what will be. Thank you so much for your kind post.
