for people dealing with a pet going through chemo? These groups can be a real God send with loads of information as well as emotional support. I got such an amazing experience joining a Yahoo group when my first dog got diagnosed with sebaceous adenitis and don't know what I would have done without it. There's sure to be several groups online you can join for people with pets going through chemo. These special groups or forums can be just a well spring of help and support.
