Guest tanner Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 How is he doing today? My little girl, Lady just passed in May from cancer. I know how you feel. You and Scooter are in my prayers. Deb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer Posted October 1, 2007 Author Share Posted October 1, 2007 (edited) I wanted to thank everyone for their kind thoughts and prayers for Scooter. I am certainly not alone in going through this with him and I am grateful to be surround by such kindness. I wanted to update everyone on his well being..... right now Scooter is in good spirits and seems to be relatively painfree with the meds he is taking. He has spark in his eyes and he still has his appetite. He tires easily, as can be expected. He has significant swelling in his leg so we are keeping that massaged and elevated to help him to be more comfortable. Thankfully it's not to extreme at the moment. I did contact Dr. Couto in Ohio and he was kind enough to reply to me about some other treatment options availible for this type of cancer and the location that it's in. However, Scooter is not a candidate for amputation and chemo (for the amount of time it prolongs) is not something I am willing to put Scooter through. So I am spending the rest of time I have with him making him as comfortable as possible. ***Dewey is still being decided on. I've been offered an overwhelming amount of help with Scooter should we decide to come. This will be the last Dewey for him and possibly the last for me as well....at least for the time being. I want to do right by Scooter so it will be a gam time decision as to whether we show up or not. So that's where we are for the moment. Thanks again for all your thoughts and prayers. They are a huge comfort to me and Scooter during this time. xoxo- Jennifer & Scooterman Edited October 1, 2007 by Jennifer Welcome home Quixote (formerly known as Whytell Mango) My Beloved Scooterman October 16, 1998 - October 11, 2007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jennifer Posted October 1, 2007 Author Share Posted October 1, 2007 Perhaps I should add a side note here: I am taking everything into consideration in the event I do go to Dewey. I will not be doing anything to endanger Scooter's well being.

turbotaina Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Jennifer - talk to Deanna about the cart she had for Frazzle. That would be a wonderful way for Scooter to get around should you decide to go to Dewey. At least it would keep him off his feet. I think she got it at Lowes.

Jennifer Posted October 1, 2007 Author Share Posted October 1, 2007 IF Scooter and I attend Dewey, Scooter would not be leaving the condo. That is out of the question. He would be parked on the couch the entire time, there will be no activity outside the condo for him. The cart is a good idea though.

And while you're on the sofa, Scooter can catch a front row seat at the POTC marathon, right? My heart goes out to you both - I know these are tough times, but I'm encouraged to hear that he;s comfortable Edited October 1, 2007 by jodyksam Mom to Daisy (1999-2012), LB (aka Little Bit), and Sammy James (aka Sammy or Buddy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
