Guest EmbersDad Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 (edited) ember and i are off for her 2nd round of chemo tomorrow. this dose will be the carboplatin and im hoping she handles it fine. the doxyrubicin made her a bit lazier than usual and diminished her appetite for about 5 days but she has been a huge bundle of playful energy recently, chasing squirrels from the bird feeder and playing with her stuffies. wish us luck. PUPDATE 11-21 no interest in breakfast today. did eat the peanut butter glops that hid her cerenia and antibiotics. i forsee a trip to mickey d's for a cheeseburger from the dollar menu Edited November 21, 2008 by EmbersDad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest EmbersDad Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 How's she doing this afternoon? came home and slept a bit. she ate about 1/2 cup of her usual meal around 3-3:30 and wanted her walkies. we did 8 blocks. she wasnt fed this am per the doc's instruction so im hoping she will eat tomorrow. i left what was in the bowl in case she wants to pick thru the evening. i have been very lax with pics lately, and want to snap some new ones of her fur growing back in. the scabs are finally falling off around the incision site.
