Continuing our series on our Embraced pet parents sending in their pet cancer stories, here's one from Kay, one of our long-timers at Embrace.
Hello everyone at Embrace,
Your article couldn't have said it better. After loosing our last rottie to cancer, I knew before getting my next pet, I would invest in insurance.
I found a lump in Boss' rear leg and took him to the vet and they took a fluid sample and it came back positive lymphoma and the most aggressive kind. We were sent to an specialist to see about treatment. We did not have insurance on Boss, but with or without it, I would not take back one dollar I spent. Some pets are lucky enough to have full remission, Boss' remission lasted for 2 years before the cancer came back and we lost our battle. We got to enjoy 2 more wonderful years with him and have never regretted it.
As all pet owners know, their pets are special, but I have always told everyone, Boss was not my pet, I was his human. The technicians at our oncology clinic could really tell some stories to confirm that.
Take care,
Kay
Proud parent of one spoiled Bullmastiff, Amos
