'The Truth of the Matter'

It’s hard to admit but the tumor looks bigger…in comparison to older pictures I am almost sure of it. As speculated earlier, I may have been observing Pudge too closely to notice a difference in size, it was confirmed when I took a step back and looked at some earlier pictures of him. In contrast to Pudge’s initial faster growing tumor, the changes in the second tumor were almost invisible on a day to day basis. I could hypothesize that the Phycotene treatment may be having a small amount of beneficial impact, perhaps at very least stalling the tumor growth, however at this point I don’t know how this can ever be confirmed.

We are continuing to watch Pudge to see if any behavioral changes occur. On the good side of things Pudge continues about his daily activities and still loves his fresh veggies, especially his new favorite: Tofu.
