Randi's mom/secretary here...this morning Randi underwent surgery to remove 3 lumpiebumpies - one behind her ear (papalloma), one on her left side (lipoma - fatty tumor) & another more serious one on her bum...this one is being biopsied - it could either be a hemangioma or a hemangiosarcoma - please say a little prayer that it is the benign first one - not the horrible "C" word which is the second one. We should have results on Friday. The following pics are a bit graphic...so be aware... Randi's resting comfortably now & came through the surgery well. Here she is above all happy at 7am that I said, "Do you want to go in the car?"
She's probably very hungry here...she didn't even get to eat her breakfast... 
She's such a good girl...she takes up the entire back seat...all 87.5 pounds of her...her actual weight this morning since she pooped, peed & didn't have breakfast...
Poor thing...looks likes she had a new circuit panel installed...the fatty tumor was removed from this site.
The papalloma - which looked like a skin tag - was removed from behind her right ear...her left leg was shaved a bit for the IV.
Its hard to see here...but on the right side of her bumbum is where she has about a 4 inch x 3 inch shaved area where the suspicious tumor was...I'm concerned that this is going to be a tough spot to heal, since one of her favorite activities lately was rubbing her bum on the carpet & patio...maybe irritation from the tumor?So please keep Randi in your prayers...we're trying to keep a positive attitude & only worry when we know we have something to worry about...
On a very sad note, this morning we found out that Randi's brother & littermate ,Gus, who lives on the east coast, has lymphoma...so he needs your pawsitive energy sent his way as well... We found out a few days ago that another one of Randi's brothers/littermates, Dakota, passed away last year of mass cell cancer...so its been chilling news all around...

Sweet Randi Girl!
You are going to look SO STREET at the biker bars from now on. You can show off all your scars. (I'd like to get a little better look at your bum bum one.)
Stella & I are sending you healing goob smooches and anti-oxidant smooches (to ward off any dreaded C cells that may even THINK about developing). We hope you get great news on Friday.
We are also sending Gus some AireZen and healing goob smooches. We want a miracle for him!

Thinking of you darling Randi with all four paws crossed doga-ishly. I gave you a little mention too on my blog to say I was thinking of you although I didn't realise I wrote it when you were having your surgery. Must have been some pawsome thoughtwaves across the ocean there. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Randi!!! I rushed over as soon as I read the news. I am so worried about you. At least you have nice drugs for now so that you don't feel sore from all that poking and removal of Randi bits.
Try not to rub your bottom on the rug, OK? I would scritch it for you if I could. I will send my little zens your way.
Kisses,
Dexter
P.S. Momma is worried about your mom because this will be a very long day for her, so you take good care of her. It is scary that your brother had the bad sickies.
Randi, we are sending lots of healing Aire-zen and crossing our paws for you and for Gus!
Aire-hugs,
Poppy, Penny & Patches
Ciao bella Randi!
I just sent BIG bunches of Aire-Zen your way -- should be there any second now! La mia ragazza says she'll be thinking about all of you, and keeping you in her prayers. Hang tight, mia bellissima amica, ok?
Tanti baci!
Lucia
Oh Randi, you sure are brave! I am crossing my paws and sending my very best purrs that you will have good news about your lumpie.
Oh goodness, Randi! We will keep you in our thoughts.
Wuv,
Gus and Waldo
Randi, my dearest looky like friend, I was very upset to read your news, and we hope the results of the biopsy are good! Our paws and fingers are crossed for you Girly!!
We will keep looking in to check you are ok!
lots of healing licks, Marvin xxxxx
and lots of love from Jeannie too
ps from Jeannie
It must be a very worrying time for you, and my thoughts are with you. Marvin had a few fatty lumps removed a while back and I can remember how anxious I was until we had the results of the biopsy.
As for the rubbing of the bum on the carpet, have you had her anal glands checked lately? Marvin does this when his anal glands need expressing by the Vet, it could just be this which is causing the irritation.
Not that I know much, just trying to put your mind at rest I guess.
Sorry if you have already had this done! I don't mean to be a "know all". ;0D
Thinking of you, and lots of healing hugs to Randi!
Keep this in your heart, something I read on the internet somewhere "worry solves nothing - it just takes away the joy of being".
I wish you worryless days in future.
much love and light,
Jeannie xxxxxx
We've got 8 paws crossed for you hoping for good test results.
Princess Eva

Hey there randi, we have paws crossed for you and now are a bit nervous about moose's lump removal. Not worrying until there is something to worry about is a great plan but I bet it is easier said than done! Sorry about your sibs too. Hope your brother makes it through ok. hang in there and we are glad that the removal part went well, that is good news for now!
