Here we are at Wednesday, a week and a half after Raven’s diagnosis. So far I am very pleased with how she is going, there’s room for even more progress but that would be like a lottery win I think. She had her 2nd chemotherapy treatment Monday. I took her into work on Monday morning, …

Early Days
Well so far so good. It's Thursday, 4 days after Raven's first treatment last Monday. So far the only side effects I have noticed is on Monday night her increased frequency of urination and pooping. All outside thankfully, though I did not get much sleep that night! I am sleeping in our lounge at the …
First Win Under Her Belt
GREAT NEWS! Raven's bone marrow came back clear of cancer along with her blood test, so her marrow and blood are still very much cancer free YAY!She is lying at my feet on her favourite Snooza Pet Futon, feeling very drowsy and tired but contented to be home. The other two youngsters Cypher and Spryte …
Raven’s BIG Day
Raven goes in for chemo and a marrow aspirate today. It's 7am right now and I am wondering what exactly her day will be like when I take her into Murdoch and leave her there. It sounds horrible "leave her there", but according to a number of sources and basic logic really it would be …
Saturday update
Raven still looks okay today. She had one upchuck in the afternoon but nothing serious just a bit of yellow bile. She kept a whole large chicken wing down without any trouble afterwards and was harassing for more! I think the lymph nodes in her neck are now just starting to slightly irritate her throat …

CAWA State Titles Wrap Up
So last weekend (Friday night and Saturday) was the CAWA State Agility titles. For such a small state we had a good entry of over 500 runs across the two trials. Friday evening went well for me. I had Cypher in Open Jumping first up and he did a nice run for a 9th place …
Ok…time to bite the bullet.
I'm going to be brave and finally post a video or two. These two runs are of Cypher from last night and of Raven from last November (we missed getting her Masters Agility run from last night).Cypher is doing his Masters Jumping run (4th place) and Raven is doing a Masters Agility run (1st place) …
Raven has a win :-)
Tonight was Perth Training’s Agility and Jumping Trial. We definitely fared a bit better this Saturday than last! Raven was a star again and took 1st place in Masters Agility. It wasn’t smooth sailing in a number of places but her speed compensated for that. We had a brilliant run in Open Jumping apart from …
