Oh this morning was stressful that is for sure. I cried in the car which is unusual for me...I knew something was up and I wasn't happy that Mom put me in my dreaded carrier and in the car...
Once at the Specialist we sat for a little while to wait for my turn to see my Vet Specialist...the vet tech came and got me along with Mom, hooray Mom is going with me, maybe it won't be so bad.
My vet tech's name was Holly she was so nice and I could tell she loves me, she asked Mom how I have been doing of course Mom told her I have been doing really good and I seem to be feeling like myself once again...
I got weighed today and I did loose a little weight, now Mom is getting concerned because I am 6lbs. 9 ozs. Holly didn't take my temperature because when she lifted me up and had an accident she thinks she scared the poo out of me...
My Doctor Specialist came in and said he is real impressed with me and he thinks I did super through all of my treatment and he still thinks my prognoses is really good, he told Mom the next 1 1/2 to 2 yrs will be crucial and if I get past that I will live to be very old...so Mom is so happy and is praying for the next test to be good..he told Mom that I should regain my weight in the next couple of months.
Now here comes the Vampire tech to come get my blood, oh no oh no, Mom don't leave I don't want you to leave and no way do I want them to take more blood and run the test on me....more blood what gives didn't I give you enough blood in the last 3 months....those vampires I think they love getting my blood.....
Good news all my test came back great no signs of kidney damage, I do have a heart murmur....so I am good to go and I don't have to go back in til the end of January...I will have to give more blood and get a chest x-ray then, if all is good next thing for me will be dental work by a vet dentist that is next door to my Vet Specialist....Mom took Xena there to have her dental work done so Mom wants to take me there too...Vet says I will more than likely have to have some of my teeth pulled...
Hooray I am ready to go home with Mom and you know what when we got home Mom and I fell asleep in her chair, I had a pillow and even the doggies Milo slept with us....NOW IT IS UP TO ME TO STAY CANCER FREE AND FIGHT THIS
Oh my friends I am getting nervous, Mom told Dad tonight that she has to take me to the Specialist tomorrow morning so they can do a test or more to check on my kidneys to make sure the chemo treatments didn't do any damage....& to see how I am doing.
Just when I thought I didn't have to go to the Vet here I go again....now what will they do to me....my hair is finally growing back to the point where it is almost hard to tell I was shaved for the surgery and my legs are almost all grown out too. I don't look like a poodle in the legs anymore...and I am eating better most of the time now too....
At least in the morning I will get to eat, hooray I don't have to go without food, Mom called today to make sure and they said Mom can feed me before I have to go....will update when we get home tomorrow...
Mommy has been so busy she hasn't had a lot of time to help me get on the computer, so as soon as she got home today I jumped right on her lap and told her you know we need to let all of my catster friends know how I am doing, at least give you all an update.
I am back to myself, I am doing better at eating, even ask for more some days before Mom leaves the house. I still don't like her putting my medication in my food, I can tell right away and then I turn my queen nose up at it. Mom bought kitty milk just for me and she told me she will try getting me to drink it and hopefully I will drink with my medication in it. Will let you all know when it happens.
I still have trouble with my favorite scratching post, I don't think I will be able to do the scratching on it for now or if at all, I do have a new one that I use now it is slanted so I go to town on sharpening my claws on it...My right arm just hasn't been the same since my surgery cause they had to take some skin so Mom says it looks like my flexability isn't what it used to be.
I am now jumping, running, playing with the doggies and running away from Zeke when he wants to bite me, he loves to play like I am his prey, not MOL...
Mom just told me I have to go back to visit my specialist next Tuesday so they can do test to check my kidneys to make sure there is no damage from the chemo treatments. Kidney damage on no, there is nothing going on with my kidneys they are working just fine...or I think they are....good thing about going in is Mom will have the day off so I will get to spend time with her and sleep on her lap all afternoon.
Best part of being well is I am sleeping on Mom every night, she gives me lots of kisses, hugs and love...my Mom loves me and cherishes everyday she has me here with her...Mol Mom really does love me she tells me all the time.
Queen Tallulah is doing fine and is cherished by Mom
