Hi pals, I am also not going for chemo - too expensive in South Africa, so mom is just feeding me a healthy diet.  They took xrays of my lungs on the 9th of May and it was all clean.

Good luck with the chemo!

Lotsa licks and lotsa love, Dee xxx

Hi Lauren...I'm not sure we can ever know if the cancer is "cured", we just have to listen to our hearts and do what we feel is best. If your gut tells you to get a second opinion, then do it. I was fortunate that my best friend is a vet and another very dear friend is also one...so I had 3 medical opinions and they all agreed on the same course of action and treatment. Still, I was petrified about going ahead with amputation and with chemo, but my heart was telling me it was the right thing to do - and so was zeus in his own way. I took a leap of faith and so far, it has all worked out better than I could ever have dreamed. One day at a time Lauren as it sounds like you know. Scout is an absolutely beautiful wonder dog...look into those eyes that love you so much and you will find your answer.

Lots of love,

Heather

Good luck Scout...you'll do great ~ I'm glad to hear that mom got away for a few days, we hope it was for some R&R..the pawrents need rest too. Mom is leaving tomorrow for 9 days and my grandpa came all the way from Ohio to watch me and my brother so mom didn't have to worry or cancel her trip that has been planned since before my diagnosis. I'm so excited to spend time with grandpa - he loves us up SO much and I know that mom needs a break - she's exhausted...I'm doing so well and there are no mets that I hope she can have a good time and get some rest.

We're with you all the way Scout and know, that even though you won't hear from us for a little while that we're thinking of you and praying for you.

Much love,

Mom and Zeus
