I actually took the advice from a moderator! at beardeddragon.org of giving her organic maple syrup + aluminum-free baking soda + water mixture which is proven to kill cancer in humans, but it ended up killing her after a week. I suppose it's not meant for dragons. This is the 3rd time I've taken advice from the community when reptile vets couldn't help and it ended up killing a sick dragon. Never again. Painful lesson learned... I was only trying to help her. I checked some old documentation and it turns out she was 12, not 9 - I was only guessing. At least she lived a long life. She probably only would've had a few more months to live anyway with her cancer. I'm constantly trying to remind myself that, even though I'm kicking myself. I should've just tried the high PH fruits and vegetables. It's always difficult when your beardie passes on. Even harder when you have to bury them...
