I love how Flippy's siblings are cheering her on along with us. That's my kiddos. :-)

 

Flippy, all your mommies love you beyond words, and we know you are going to be cancer free soon. Many hugs and scritches to you, plus some big hugs for your Mama Denise for taking such good care of you.

Denise, I'll be following your Journal for Flippy and praying that the chemo works and that it doesn't make her too sick.

This girl sure has lived up to her race name - FTH Thrillseeker. Always keeping everyone on their toes, this one does. Must be why we all love her so much.

Hey big goof, Tiger!!! I can take you, even on a bad day.

 

Thrillseeker fits this girl!! She is such a tomboy in the yard, and a princess in the house.

Sending hugs and prayers for prettiest girlie.

 

Denise, my angel B had one dose of CCNU. Only issue he had with it was, @ 7 days after dosing it REALLY toasted his white count. IIRC it took @ a week for it to climb back to where he had some immunity again. So that is something to watch for.

I was warned about the wbc dropping. The oncologist drew me pictures of how the wbc would start falling around day 5 and reach it's lowest peak around day 7 and come back to normal at day 10.

 

He sent us home with 5 days of antibiotics to help her during that 5 day window when she'll be low. She starts taking the antibiotics tomorrow and she'll have a blood test this weekend to check her wbc. If it's too low then the CCNU dose can be lowered. My vet said he didn't want to see it below 8000, but the oncologist said if it gets to 1000 then the dose should be adjusted, and/or we give her antibiotics after each treatment. She's in greyt shape physically, so hopefully she'll do good with this 1st round.

 

The next couple weeks will tell us if she can continue the CCNU or if we'll need to switch to vinblastine. I'm praying she can stay on the CCNU because I can give it at home and she won't have to make trips for an IV. She'll only need a trip for bloodwork before each treatment to check her liver values.
