So, for some of the 'old timers' on this forum, you may remember me. For a period of my life I practically lived on here but then for various reasons, life took over and then I find I haven't been on here in ages. I will try harder to visit.

Anyway, that isn't why I am here. Again, for those of you who have been around a while you may remember this thread:

http://www.theguineapigforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=4289

Angela was a freeads piggy who was found by one of the members of this forum (I think it was Hils, it was a while ago now). I collected her from her owners who no longer wanted her with the plan on taking her to Karen at Reading Guinea Pig Rescue. She never left me and instead became cage mates with one of my other rescues, Trixie (who came from starshine). Trixie has since passed away, however Angela was still going strong - until about 3 weeks ago when a mysterious lump appeared. Despite frequent vet visits and some attempts to reduce it's size using medication it appears to be some sort of tumour and it is getting bigger.

Angela will be going in for an op tomorrow to have it removed. I am terrified. I don't know exactly how old she is (being a rescue you are never sure) but if I take the word of her previous owner, she would be about 5 now. Anesthetic is always a risk..... Anyway, even though I have been rubbish at coming on here and keeping in touch with people I would like to ask for some vibes and for everyone to keep everything crossed that my girl comes out of her op OK tomorrow....
 
Very best of luck, and I'll be sending healing vibes from here of course. Hope it goes well.

Update on Angela - Good News!

Firstly a HUGE HUGE thank you for all the well wishes. Angela is now at home recovering. They managed to remove the tumour and whilst she is still looking very grumpy - bless her - she is eating again and moving around her cage. She has to go back to the vet tomorrow for an additional dose of painkillers but it is looking good.

Here is a piccy I took about half hour ago:

Again, thanks so much to you all.
 
I remember Angela (and the lovely Trixie of course) and I'm so glad she has come through ok!

Nice to see you back!
 
Thanks all!

Angela continues to do really well. She has had a follow up check from the vet who is very impressed with how quickly she recovered. She is pretty much back to normal now!

Again, I really appreciate all the comments!

Angela is gorgeous! Such unique colouring. I am so glad she is doing so well post-surgery.
