Well, week 1 was tough – but we got through it. This weekend was real progress. Zoey is using the sling less and less. I still have to help her up the stairs but going down the stairs is a piece of cake (althought I still keep the sling around her belly just in case).
We got some liquid tramadol last Friday that is chicken flavor. It still tastes horrible to Zoey – but it’s easier to get it down – providing I can get the little syringe back far enough.
I brought Zoey to work with me because her staples are still in and I hate her wearing that satalite dish around her neck. Great that my boss loves dogs. Zoey is getting so much love and play time that she sleeps wonderfully at night. 🙂
Tomorrow staples comes out and Chemo begins. I am nervous about how she’ll do after the first round of Chemo.
Zoey’s human sister has been in Alaska for the last 2 weeks and hasn’t seen Zoey in this condition. I think Zoey has been depressed that she’s been gone. It will be good for the two of them to be reaquainted.
I am anxious to get Zoey back to her loving playful self. I miss that part of her.
Here’s to Zoey feeling much better once she’s off the meds and gets those staples out! Thanks for the update.
