We grow old

It was a tense week here at the manse.
I had taken Bellie to the Vet at the Humane Society on Macklind for her annual checkup. I felt that something was amiss with her skin and askd the Vet to check which she did. She said all was OK.
I didn't feel secure with that though, and the next day I had Bellie shaved at the groomer.
I noticed an odd, penny size, hairless growth on her thigh.
We went back to the Vet.
She had a mast cell tumor. The very next day she had surgery to remove it.
It was a cancerous mast cell tumor, low grade.
The surgeon called yesterday to tell me that she's missed some of the cells.
I don't get it. If you knew they were there how were they missed?
