Poor Mr. Bojangles had a large mass in his ear.  We helped him get it surgically removed, but the entire mass could not be excised, so it is growing back.  We are helping his mom get him the ongoing treatment he needs so that he can continue to enjoy life despite his ear issue.  If another surgery becomes necessary, we stand ready to help, but for now it can be managed without surgery.
