Bevd Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share Posted November 29, 2007 I forgot to say earlier... When Marc came to collect me from the red cross, he brought Duffy with him. Often, Darcy comes but today of course she was at the vets so Duffy came instead. There's a market on every Thursday outside the shop but today, we didn't half confuse people.... A few people did a double take (and a leg count) and one man asked how 'she' was doing, whilst gawping at 4 legs and looking perturbed (Yes, he thought Darcy had magically developed a new leg or had a strap-on one attached or something) Quote Deerhounds Darcy, Duffy, Grace & Wellington, Mutts Sprout & Buddy, Lurchers Ned & Jake plus Ella the Westie + cats.

Bevd Posted December 3, 2007 Author Share Posted December 3, 2007 Any more mouth squeaking problems? Nope And so far, she seems to be doing OK after her 2nd Chemo (which was on Thursday). The only thing we've noticed is that yesterday morning, she only ate half her breakfast and yesterday evening, I thought she was going to refuse her food altogether but once I'd added some tasty bits, she did actually eat it all and licked the bowl clean.

Guest grey_dreams Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Hoping she just had an "off" day. Maybe because of the low pressure system that's been hanging around?

Bevd Posted December 6, 2007 Author Share Posted December 6, 2007 Just a little update as it's a week today since Darcy had her second chemo. Once again, I'm delighted to be able to report virtually nothing in the way of side effects for Darcy. I think this drug was tougher on her than the previous one in that she's been a lot more tired (as opposed to just lazy) this week, particularly the past two or three days and there has been a decrease in her appetite. Yesterday she refused her breakfast for the first time but did eat some cheese and then some cr@p from McDonalds at lunchtime (not an ideal diet but I wanted her to eat *something*). Today thought, she seems to be back to 'normal' and has eaten very well this evening. At one point, I went up for a bath, came back down and saw (without taking much notice) a big grey thing playing with Ella. I couldn't work out why Marc was making faces and pointing - until I looked closer and realised that the big grey thing playing with Ella was Darcy, not Duffy! Tried to get some video but its very dark and not very interesting to anyone other than us She goes back to the vets on Monday for blood tests to check her various levels and if all goes according to plan, I think the next chemo will be 21st December.
