Kiity,
   That is great news that he is eating. WIll keep Mick in our prayers

betsy
It may be cancer, won't know til he goes in and it is growing fast. It's a
few inches long by a couple inches high and has a pocket of gas inside. A
strong possibility is that it's wrapped around the intestines or vice
versa

and can't be removed or that if the mass can be removed it will set a lot

of

seed cancers which would be disastrous.  It's not related to the

heartworm,

but wasn't easily detected a month ago (when HW was detected) because the
mass (if it was there then) sort of pulls up to a hiding place.  However,
now it was easy to find because he'd lost more weight and when he's laid

out
flat for the xray, it comes down and is more easily seen.

I specifically asked about his strength level as to surviving surgery, and
Dr thinks he'll be ok. Today he ate a whole slice of roast beef for
breakfast and anoher for lunch. It's not a lot, but it is protein, and it
is something. I just hope it's enough.
Thanks for your concern.
