Default Kaiser has hemangiosarcoma of the heart

Unbelievable. Kaiser was diagnosed last night with a Cardiac Hemangiosarcoma. It's basically the same thing that killed our Casey only the tumor is on the heart instead of the spleen. The sack that the heart is in is filling with blood and putting pressure on his heart. We leave for the University of Florida, Gainesville tomorrow. An oncology surgeon, who has performed this operation, is going to remove the tumor. He's actually going in Monday, when they're closed, to do the CT scans in preparation for the surgery. We're numb.
He was in ICU last night and today. Leaving in the A.M. for Gainesville. He had a 6 mos geriatric check up last week and all checked out. They didn't do any xrays though. We just lost Gypsy 3 weeks ago yesterday and Casey from hemangiosarcoma on Oct 20. God please have mercy on us already.
