Doing Fine…
So Raven is doing excellently well right now. Last Tuesday her WBC was up over 6, she got her dose of chemo and was right as rain the next day. She had an absolute blast on the weekend reverting right back to her young feral self, being a complete b&^%h to me on the start …
Ups and Downs and Roundabouts
Well it’s been ages since I last posted. Real life has gotten a much firmer grip this last week or so. The weekend before last I took the dogs for a long walk out at Jandakot Regional Park. It’s a massive area full of natural bush and dirt trails to follow which are sometimes lined …
Trial-free Weekends
So no trials for the last two weekends in a row. I feel quite strange...and so not physical in any way...think I better do some serious running this week at training or else I am going to be completely exhausted after one run next trial! Raven is again of the "no news is good news" …
Weekly Update
So no news for a while – but that’s a good thing. We went to the trial Sunday and Raven was knocking bars, sliding contacts, barking her head off and face planting after jumps….and I just smiled through all of it! The old Raven is resurfacing and boy does she feel good! She only had …
Exciting news on the Lymphoma front!
Now I have tried for the last three nights to find Raven's lymph nodes to assess their size and for the life of me I cannot find them! I keep looking, much to her bored disgust, but I simply can't feel them - this, I believe, is an excellent sign. Complete remission will not be …
Bandanarama!
Got these personalised bandanas sent over from Germany by Tim's Mum for my birthday. Had to do a spontaneous photo shoot of course. They all are looking a bit too intense - as in "Must stare unblinkingly - treat may disappear!" Might have to try and get one where they're all looking a bit more …
Small Setback
For the most part this week Raven has been going well. We went to training on Tuesday night and she was jumping out of her skin so I put her over a simple novice jumping course a couple of times. She was starting to show her old self again and was barking at me too. …
Raven: AKA Cancer Arse Kicker!!!
YEAH!!! Raven's white blood cell count back up to 2.5 today...which is excellent since they only need it to be 2 for treatment and last week it was 1.4She is still in partial remission and the oncologist reckons she's getting there. The nurse who discharged her today said that often the first three treatments will …
Trial today
Only took Raven to the trial today. Cypher is having a break fo a weekend or two. I had entered Raven in a couple of runs and decided to play it by ear. She was certainly well enough today so we went - it was an afternoon trial again. Her Masters Agility run confirmed how …
