Ta da!  Never thought I'd see the day..........after two postponements due to low neutrophils and white blood cells, Jill has completed her four course chemo treatment!!  I haven't picked her up yet, but the word from the vet was "everything went perfectly."  Much better than the last doxorubicin dose!  Yipee!

So, Part 1 and 2 of Jill's Journey is complete!

Onto part 3........here's the plan.  In four weeks, we will go to Jill's regular vet for a physical, CBC, Chemistry and maybe an x-ray (the onco left this up to me, bc she knows I'm a paranoid freak).  If all looks good, we will start her on metronomic cytoxan.  She didn't tell me the dose, all she said was "we will have to order it from a compounding pharmacy because Jill is a "little lady."

In two months (one month off the cytoxan), she will go back to the oncologist for a chest x-ray (which is why she really doesn't need it in one month, but of course, my paranoia.......), a cbc, chemistry and exam.  If all is good, we'll continue with the cytoxan.

So.  That's the plan!  I'm so proud of my lil baby girl.  She has really handled this thing like a little pro.  She's even gained 8 ounces since her surgery (that may sound like a tiny bit to you dog folk, but in a 10 pound cat it's a good amount and I was told to watch it and not give her so many treats).  If you would have told me I would have made it this far with my sanity still in tact, I would have laughed, but it really was this community that I owe about 90% of making it through this too (my friends and family the other 10% ).

So....I can now breathe a sigh of relief...........for now.............
