Please send positive thoughts . . . first chest X-ray for Jet, and first for Casey in about 5 months happening Monday afternoon.
I've worried about Casey's apparent shortness of breath on exercise, but then we've always told him he has locomotive breath. Discussed this with our oncologist last time Jet was in and he asked how Casey's appetite has been, and said appetite loss is an early warning sign for mets. Well, if that's the case, I shouldn't even bother with scans . . . Casey always thinks he's starving. Always!

As posted in Casey the Pirate's Blog . . . ALL CLEAR, BOTH DOGS, AND YES, I'M SHOUTING. Casey is nearly 9 months from diagnosis, and Jet 3 1/2 months, and with a hemangiosarcoma diagnosis, that's huge.
Casey's vet, who gave him 2 weeks to 2 months back in December says he's a miracle dog, but we knew that already.
Lots of happy around here!
Biggest grin here... so freaking awesome!!!!
❤️
Hugs,
Jackie, Bo, Andy, Oscar, Phoebe, and the coolest feral tripawd kitty Huckleberry
