Hi all, well I don't know where to start or really what to say. Our Ryder went for his 3rd chemo therapy session this afternoon and oncology doctor decided not to give him the chemo because he has at least 4 nodules in his lungs. Last xray 9 weeks ago was clear. I am devastated and don't know where to turn. Grasping at straws and seeking advice ... we can try another modality (chemo at home with pills) but not sure what to do. He has just started to play again with our 1 year old puppy and seems very happy. We were totally knocked down by this outcome as we were beginning to believe that he was beating this osteosarcoma.

P.S.
Just got the email from oncology dr. Medical options are: Doxorubicin chemotherapy (sounds very extreme and dangerous) PR Metronomic chemotherapy.
Neither one will rid him of the cancer, just buy him some more time.
Georgiana, please see your other duplicate post for responses.
