What's this?

Sorry to hear. No lymphoma, but have a dog that had Autoimmune hemolytic

anemia summer of 2015.
He was 8 1/2 yrs old at the time (peed bright red...not good for anything)

After $6000 (2 blood transfusions, year of steroid drugs), he's in perfect health today, shy of 12 yrs old. An 85 lb flat coated retriever.

Of course, most attribute buying him a new immune system did the trick :-).

So there is some good news, some times. good luck to you.
