One very bored dog waiting for his 15th chemotherapy session - I guess you can call him a chemo veteran. He tolerates it really well thank goodness. Monthly scan showed no tumours, blood tests still show lymphoma so we continue searching for remission.

Our week off chemo with our dog Ringo and what happens? He develops an abscess on his ear where he has had a tiny lump since he was a puppy (sebaceous cyst). Back to the vet (again). Bacterial infection probably caused by immune system suppression because of the splenectomy and chemo. Abscess sorted, treatment explained, check up on Sunday at next chemo treatment. Every picture tells a story!

I mentioned that our dog Ringo has lymphoma and has been undergoing chemotherapy. I thought there might be people in a similar situation who might appreciate reading about our experience. So I have written two blog posts.

The first talks about how the lymphoma was discovered. You can find the post here: shannathshima.me.uk/artblog/ou.

The second goes through our experience to-date with chemo and you can find it here: shannathshima.me.uk/artblog/ou
