Apologies to all who have been wondering and perhaps worrying about me. I am still doing alright, I just let time get away from me. Mom had been busy with her sister in town whom I haven't seen in a while; since we lived in Kentucky. And work is that ever present being sucking away time from blogging. And sun bathing! And she doesn't let me blog unless she's there. Someone should tell her I'm nearly ten which makes me nearly twice as old as her in my human years!
I had a few more appointments at the vet as of late. A couple of weeks ago they did the more extensive examination where they took a urine sample and did a broader blood panel. Everything came back looking good and we are waiting on the blood work from yesterday, but I imagine all is well.
All this is to assess the reaction I may or may not have from the Palladia. The main reaction that I have not had which we were hoping for of course is that it would cause my tumor to shrink. It has not.
It has not and rather has continued to grow just a little bit each week. I have now gotten the urge to scratch at it with my back claws. And now I have made a sizable scab. It bleeds sometimes. Sometimes mom tries to put a band-aid over it but as soon as she comes home, guess who's rubbed that band-aid off... at least half way.
Today mom ordered some soft paws which are little vinyl caps that can be glued on the ends of my nails so that they have blunt edges that can't scratch. They are pink!
We'll let you know how those go over!
