We talked it over. We believe that Carlo is not ready to leave us, and will make one last attempt to get him cancer free again. We will have a larger tissue Biopsy on Friday with the Specialist and Radiologist. We agreed that we will not be just increasing the Prednisone doage as that makes him drink gallons, pant constantly, be become agitated and anxious. We will go for the Chemo round after we know fir sure if it is Lymphoma or Mast Cell Cancer as the drug treatment is different. He still has a lot of life, is not in pain, loves to be with us, and is active as a 2 mile walk today testified. Looks like I will be going a while longer with no new Harley. So far, we have laid out close to $17,000 for everything pertaining to his treatments. Heck, if I did not spend it on him, my best buddy, nothing else would really matter. Dogs can be expensive, but they are family and you sacrifice. Thanks again for the well wishes, will keep you posted as we find out more after the next Biopsy. Maxine still gets in his face and lets him know that sick or not, she is still the dog boss. |
