Learning one's cherished dog has cancer is a common experience
among dog owners today. Upon diagnosis, veterinarians may suggest
surgery or chemotherapy. But, our dog's cancer was too widespread
for surgery, and the harshness of chemotherapy seemed inappropriate
for this gentle-natured golden. Instead, we chose to celebrate the
life and spirit of our beloved pet each remaining day left with
him. What happened next is an adventurous true story of love and
courage. Last Summer with Oscar is a narrative case study about a
9-year old Golden Retriever's response to cancer. While my husband
and I came to grips with his diagnosis, Oscar made an amazing
discovery. Nestled among a patch of young trees were Slippery Elm
seedlings, and eating them became his choice of treatment. Oscar's
determination to live enabled him to return to this patch to eat
the leaves, thereby regaining his strength for continued walks with
his littermate, Winston. Oscar, the teacher, found new ways to
communicate with me, his student. Together, we explored
little-known remedies for cancer. The goodness of the journey
elicited kindness and goodness from others. Last Summer with Oscar
is filled with anecdotes that inspire love and a true belief in the
potential of humanity.
