Nacho

Nacho

Nacho passed away on 12 May 2024.  He was rescued 14 March 2024 because he had multiple tumors, some were due to TVT, which is highly treatable, but he also had Squamous Cell Carcinoma in advanced stage.
We were treating him with chemotherapy but as some tumors were diminishing, others were appearing. We were in the process of discussing how to proceed with treatment when he died.

One of the dangers of chemo is that as the tumors get broken down, toxins can affect organs.
We believe this is what happened with Nacho.
At least he had 2 months of good food, love and care, and sponsors who were cheering him on.
Thank you to his sponsors for helping us give him the best chance.

Run free, I hope Max and Shaun were there to meet you as you crossed.
