dogboy maintains

He is still feeling good today. He had his cytoxin at 5:00. It is eliminated via the kidneys/bladder, so keeping him drinking like crazy and letting him out every hour or so is paramount, so he can get rid of the nasty stuff rather than letting it sit in his bladder (cystitis a usual side effect)...............

Tomorrow we go to our vet to get his blood counts, etc.................

Thanks!

I have been feeling pretty good, because *he* has been feeling pretty good. Then this morning I was looking over the paperwork from MSU from last week, and they downgraded his prognosis from "guarded" to "guarded to poor".....

That was a blow.

I was trying to hold on to him feeling good and believe that it has to be good that he's feeling better, and partially succeeding....

What a LOAD OFF to get the good news at the vet today. Normal white count for a dog is 6-17,000,
and his was 17,000 today! AND she couldn't feel his lymph nodes at all.

YAY!!!!!!! :-)

All the support much appreciated! :-)
