    YAY for clear scan!!!!!!!

    Amelia, you work it, girl!  Valet service for stairs and caviar for breakfast!  Whatever you want, they HAVE to give it to you.  :)  

    Isn’t that the truth!

    I went out to dinner last night and brought her home filet!!!

    She's still ahead of Willa, who has literally never even seen our upstairs! :lol 

    We did scans every other chemo appointment, and now we're on a three-month schedule, which is great. I get to space my panic attacks further apart! :P

    Watching her go up the 5 stairs she could easily do the 9. And she comes down the 9 stairs by herself which I thought was going to be more of the issue!

    I'm hoping the scans space out to at least every 3 months or so.

    Thank you all for asking for an update!

    Now we only have 2 chemo treatments left!
    And I guess scans every so often?

    She is doing so well! 
    ONLY thing not back to "normal" is she isn't going up the big set of stairs, even though she can physically.
    So we are still having to carry her up at night.

    Everything these folks have said!

    I will say that scared feeling will go away... don't let go of the leash, but as you form a bond with your hound, and they settle in, you won't feel like you need a death grip on them.
    They will stay with you. 
    We have always had our greys on leashes outside of our yard, and will continue to do so. You many critters and cars around. 

    On another note, if you do adopt a grey, you are gonna fall in love!
    Good luck!

    :banana We only ever needed nausea meds for Doxorubicin, not Carboplatin. Sounds like Amelia is handling it all like the champ she is.

    Please keep the good news coming! We need as much as we can get after Cindy lost her boy Zeke today to this horrid disease. Six years old. :cry1

    Poor Cindy and Zeke… I am so sorry to hear this.
    Run free sweet Zeke :grouphug

    Good morning grey peeps!

    Hope everyone had a nice Easter weekend.

    Update: Amelia was able to get her 3rd chemo treatment this morning.

    Next treatment she will get a chest scan to make sure all is well and treatments are working.

    In the meantime, she is very much her usual self these past couple weeks.
    Amazing how she is acting like nothing has happened!

    When all her hair grows back in I think she’ll look more ‘even’.   And yes.. she’ll develop more - different - muscles as she gets fitter.

    Our first front-amp boy had no shoulder blade and he always looked a little ‘off-kilter’. 

    Joshi still has her shoulder and from above is quite even. She also has lots of hair to hide any unevenness.

    Hair is slowly coming in.
    She doesn't have a lot to begin with LOL so hopefully things cover a little.

    Well, after my freak out today I have good news!

    Went out to dinner, when we got home we let the girls out.
    Their MO is is to sprint from the door to the far corner of the yard chasing shadows or goblins.
    Amelia has always been faster than Carmen….

    Well wouldn’t you know it. She STILL beat her!

    Here are 3 pics I got:

    53599789801_bbba8cddcb_c.jpg

    53598920047_821c7a8f7f_c.jpg

    53600123649_27f207935a_c.jpg

    The first pic shows it the best. But it runs along the white fur, next to the scar line that runs right where the red fur is. Not sure if the surgeon did that on purpose but it sure hides the scar well!

    I do recall the “bulge” a bit when we had her shirt on, etc. I think I am being paranoid at the moment. But a second, 3rd, 4th set off eyes from you all is great. 

    Thx!

    Ok gang,

    I need to be talked off a ledge…

    This morning I noticed a bit of a “bulge” on the right side of her neck. It’s not huge, it’s not hard, and it’s not super soft like fluid.
    It is right in front where her stitch line is/was on her shoulder.

    At first I panicked, but then I’m wondering with a lot more activity, is it just her muscles developing asymmetrical on her right side now?
    I mean, she isn’t the on both sides anymore, holds her head a bit to the right, etc for balance.

    Appetite, activity, etc is all good and normal.  

    Anyone experience this?

    Of course we will be watching this for any change.

    I can take a pic for location reference if you all want.
    Thx.
