November 9 Final Update

I met with my oncologist this afternoon. He’s been out of they country visiting his parents.

He seemed surprised on some of the decisions that had been made in his absence. This unnerved me a bit. I like consistent results, even if I don’t agree with it.

Tomorrow I go for my next chemo treatment.

Danny Boy is proving to be a real joy. He loves to bounce up on the sofa, sit next to you and get petted. He seems pretty well recovered from his surgery. We took out his favorite toy and he was pleased. His favorite toy is a small pet bed. He loves to throw it into the air, shake it like he’s killing a rat and play tug-of-war with it. We kept it from him to not let him hurt himself while he was recovering from his surgery.

When we take him to the office, he now hops into the car and is ready to go. He seems to like almost everything.

He likes to leave the house for a walk. He likes to get back in the house from his walk. He likes to get in the car for a ride. When we come home, he loves to get back in the house. The only thing he seems to object to is on his walks. If he’s going down the sidewalk and we decide to turn around he fights a bit. But once we get him turned around, he happy again, just to be moving, I think. He has cute little doggie trot when walking on the leash.

He sleeps on our bed quite well. Although last night I got up to use the bathroom, came back and found him on my part of the bed. I am reluctant to wake him up at night, as he likes to lick any exposed skin.

Well I’m off to bed and looking forward to it.

I will be thinking of you as you begin your chemo treatment again tomorrow. I am hoping that they remembered to process all the chemicals through the "Miracle Dept". before sending it on to you. Praying for you Ted. Ruth
