Talked to the vet today, he said that we need to give it some more time. He did say that it is good that she is eating more, almost to the same amount she use to eat and drinking lots of water. But her activity and stamina should be more then what it is. He asked me how her days were, and well to be honest she has had one good day where she looked happy, but only wanted to play and be outside for about 10 min. I do know the prednisone will help make her hungry and thirsty. So he wants me to give it a week and just she if she starts to have more better days then bad days.
I am on a roller coaster ride with my emotions right now.
So hard. We all want for you and Trix both to be ok.

So sorry you're going through this. Do give the prednisone a chance if you think it may help, it bought my Seamus a year an a half of happy good health.

well, i don't have any new pictures of the little shit because she's up in utah with her mom.
but they both came down on tuesday for gracie's final appt w/her oncologist. he said "we hate to use the word 'cured,' but i'd say she's...........CURED."
what a ride......we just hope and pray it never comes back. or, if it does, lets wait another 10-12 years!

Yes, it gets easier, but it takes too damn long, doesn't it? I thought I was doing okay (almost two weeks since Ernst died) and I walked down the pet food aisle at the market and burst into tears.
And my daughter (who has cried and cried) is finally starting to ask about getting another dog. Asking in a good way, I mean. And we talk about how we'll never replace Ernst.
Oh, dear. I meant this to sound uplifting - yes yes, it does get better.
so on our evening walks up here, norm has to check out the rabbit hole on the slope...tonight, we saw the rabbit run out of it's hole...thankfully, i had the little hunter was leashed so he couldn't go running through the forest :twisted:
but he did spend a good 5 minutes checking out the rabbits hole
