That put a smile on my face! You're a great dad!

Steve I am so glad to hear that Carlo is doing well. Sending Carlo prayers and good thoughts to help deal with the chemo. Best wishes. I hope all is well with the rest of your family and that the in laws are doing better.

Steve,

Even though you have had so much on your plate these days...you continue to take such excellent care of Carlo, it's no wonder he is doing so well. I am so happy for you he is truly amazing.

Great news, results are great....and in what 89 hours the other little guy will be raising hell again...and you'll have the whole group running you ragged.

By the way you have bragging rights...the yorkie in Sharpay's Fabulous Adventures is Basil's cousin.

Wow... Did you read that Steve? You might have a star on your hands!

Thanks for the update on Carlo. I think about that big guy often. I hope he continues to do well.

Basil does have star potential. We just need to find the right venue for him down the road.

Basil amd Maxine got into a "Bark-Off" tonight, and Carlo just sat and watched. Basil is back in the pen, Maxine is on the couch, and Carlo is on his bed snoring.

I would love to have seen that! I'm so happy to hear Basil is a star!

Sounds like the bark-off has turned into doggie bliss. Just love your descriptions.

Also, glad the report for Carlo is positive.

He is doing great 1 day after the pill/ I know 48-73 hours after taking it he does slow down a bit and becomes somewhat anxious, but that dissaptes after the first week. Next week he will go back for a blood test. The Vets are amazed at how well he is doing, and that he is still in remission with a strong heart and Internal organs. I wish I was as healthy as Carlo. Heck, I wish I looked as good as he does.

You are certainly #1 in the Parent Furbaby Community! You are very intuitive and in sync with him and he is right there with you in mind, body and health with your decisions. You have the gift. My prayers and thought are with you while you are walking this path. Mary

Just gotr back from the Vet with Carlo. He got a complete exam, and a bunch of Blood tests...
CBC
Chem 15 Catalyst
LYTE 4 Catalyst + Panel

All tests came back with in range except his BUS (Kidney) was a tad low, but the vet waS NOT concerned. I said you may not be concerned, but Carlo and I sure are. Over all, he is hanging tough.

kjc · 05-05-2011, 11:50 AM

Glad to hear the old man is hanging in there! Keeping Carlo in my prayers...
