Cures certain types of cancer. Ivermectin does as well. Maybe a combo of the two? There is a vet on Youtube that recommends FenBen... You can get it on Amazon reasonably priced in bulk. Guy from OK who swears it cured his cancer - Joe something I think.

a friend of mines dog had bone cancer and it cured her.

as for me stage 4 papillary carcinoma of the thyroid with metastasis to esophagus, trachea, lungs, tail bone and brain stem. after radical neck dissection surgery that didn't get it all and then radioactive Iodine that didn't work. I decided to try Fenben on the advice of Joe Tippen . I stopped all other treatment .
the tumors in my lungs went from 18mm to small and vague. the lesion on my esophagus/ trachea went from the size of a silver dollar to the size of a pencil eraser. tail bone and brain stem no longer detectable . my last 3 scans have been NO EVIDENCE OF ACTIVE DISEASE (NED) . in july 2022 the Dr. said I would be dead by Christmas almost 2 years ago. I believe God answered my prayers because of the way I found out about fenben. I still have cancer but it is dormant for lack of a better word. my Dr. says if it ain't growing it can't kill you

Deramaxx is an NSAID that has an anti-cancer activity in dogs. I'm pretty sure it reduced or eliminated the tumor in my yorkie's bladder because she was able to pee normally after being on it for awhile and stayed that way. Don't know for certain as I never had another MRI done, but she stayed basically normal until I had to put her to sleep from kidney failure. The vet had been watching her bloodwork and kidney function long before we found her cancer.

She had transitional cell carcinoma in the bladder and it was impinging into her urethra. I thought for sure that was what would get her and watched her like a hawk when she did her business. I wasn't about to let her suffer a death of not being able to pee. Her struggling and making 6-8 attempts to empty her bladder went completely away and never returned.

I have known management in any company to take a pay cut, ever. I could be wrong, but I have seen it or heard about it.

The people making things happen tho, ya sucks for us.

Worked for an instrument company, servicing industry in Houston. I was hired to start repair and calibration service.

Sales office had been going for 20 years, office manager, receptionist, 2 inside sales and 2 outside sales.
I was hired and within 2 years had hired 9 repair techs.
Company was bought out, 1 inside sales and receptionist kept their job. Everyone else was terminated.
You never know if / when a buyout will occur or what the new owners have in mind.

Sorry to hear about your dog. Many times I have mourned one that passed more than I have most people.

Sorry about your dog. Losing a dog can hit harder than the passing of many people.

As to the job … keep your resume fresh and up to date. Craft a solid cover letter and touch base with industry connections to network.

Been through a few corporate buyouts and restructuring. Always best to stay ahead of them and being proactive with a job search. You will survive. Likely get you a bump up when it’s all done. Stay positive.

Company sales to a larger company never work out to the advantage of the staff.
Wife worked at Smith Tool in Ponca as an accountant for 46 years.
The company built 3 cone rock bits for the oil and mining industry. Top bit in the industry.
Average employee had over 20 years' service.
Management sold it to Schlumberger for a huge personal profit.
For whatever reason, Schlumberger decided to move the business to Houston. They paid some employees well to go to Houston and train the new employees. After two years of training, they left.
Not one single workable bit had been produced after they left with cost cutting, and the company folded.
Ponca put out over 300 bits a month for an average and was profitable with a workforce that was family. 300 +/- employees knew your wife's name, your kids and so on. Company events like BBQ's etc were heavily attended.
It's sad to see how a successful company with great employees can take down a company like that which was incredibly profitable, yet wages were high. Schlumberger thought getting lower paid employees would make a few more sheckles for corporate.
Bad decision.
