Thanks to each and every one of you who have prayed for us. Please continue. This is going to be a long 25 weeks. I have a lot to learn about chemo with a patient who can't talk. Can someone who is more familiar with YorkieTalk tell me the best way to find out if there is someone out there who might have experience with chemo and could give me some pointers such as things I can do to protect Gidget during her chemo. I have friends who are all to eager to give me advice as to what my vet should and shouldn't be doing but that I don't want or need. I trust my vet, and he has told me things like keep her away from anyone or any animal with infections just like a person on chemo. I guess I would just like to talk with someone who has been there. Thanks again everyone!
