Crushing Hope

As a man, I never thought I’d honestly be able to say that I had “Cancer of the Pussy”… but my beloved lil Slinker-butt has been diagnosed with what seems to be breast cancer…

Cancer Strikes Again

She has been a little withdrawn lately, hiding in the bathroom of all places despite her inherent fears of water. The tumor has been growing and shrinking on and off for the past year now. I was convinced it was a reoccurring abscess because it would shrink up a bit with some treatment, but after it became more of a cater than a lump, I finally caved in and took her to the vet. That’s when I got the bad news…

I can’t help but be reminded of that conversation with the Hospice Care Nurse when Trigger, Slinky and I moved in with my Uncle in what sounded to be a slightly more hopeful diagnosis, but… I’m also reading between the lines.

No one wants to be the first one to say it to someone who has never heard it.

Keeping Hope

She’s had better healthcare than I have since I found her behind that Chinese Restaurant nearby an old job I used to work at in my early twenties. She’s been to the vet more times I’ve been to the doctor… but this is the first time its every been such a serious feeling after leaving the office.

She still LOVES to be outside, but she just doesn’t have the same ambition to try and turbo leap out the door that she used to. She isn’t as interested in new people, nor does she eat as much wet food as she once did. All theses are things I’ve been noticing over the last few months changing with her. It truly breaks my heart into 21395078 dusty little pieces.

I’m not giving up on hope just yet though. I’ve recently found some interesting treatment options that are not full of side effects and chemicals. Can you take a guess at what they are?…

Did you guess weed?

You did, didn’t you.

Stoner.

But its not quite inaccurate either.

There is a somewhat newer process that can take the oils of an entire hemp plant and produce a high-CBD content oil. According to medical research, CBD oils work in the body of many mammals to restore natural balances. The balance of the body is imperative for fending off disease. In some cases actually shrink malignant cells and restore the body’s natural ability to maintain itself.

Male Versus Female Cannabis Plants & Byproducts

Since marijuana legalization is ultra slow in the world, it stands to reason such products are potentially dangerous option to use for non-health reasons. As it turns out, only the FEMALE plant is actually capable of producing enough THC to cause the euphoric effects of marijuana. While the male plant still produces most of the same CBDs, which in some areas of the world is actually legal where the female plant is not! It’s believe that components in the female plant have far more medicinal properties than the male plant, though hemp has always had many uses throughout history.

So… why not, right? Why not try it out? It’s a bit pricey, but it’s also a potential game changer for both myself and my kitty. And the stark reality is that my cat has been with me for over a 3rd of my life now. If she has cancer, there is a very real possibility that I could too. Or at least be at higher risk…

Could this save my cat’s life for at least a few more amazing years together? Could this potentially save my own life if there are things wrong with me that I don’t even know about?

I’m not afraid to hope. And there is no way I could stop loving this little ball of fur that has put up with me for this long. CBD, you better be the real deal. I’m putting a hell of a lot of hope in unproven testimony and anecdotal evidence.

Here’s to keeping our furry chins up, and never giving up on those you love.
