I am really touched by all this outpouring of love and support for Mick, and I absolutely LOVE the ribbons and signatures.

You guys make this whole thing a little bit easier to deal with and it means a lot to me.
Our oncologist is (Thank God) a great believer in dietary supplements and has given me a list of things to get... she was also very glad to hear that Mick is on RAW already. She has called twice to see how he's doing... so I am very happy w/my choice of doctor for him.
His next chemo treatment is this coming Tuesday and we will try to wrangle Baby Cow into submission without sedation... he has to hold still long enough for blood work and the chemo therapy... I am so grateful to his doctor for trying to come up w/a feasible plan and for working w/me, since Mick is not the easiest patient on a good day.
He has had really bad diarrhea since last night (I've started him on meds for that), and has had a few accidents in the house - which makes him positively miserable. He is one of those dogs who get absolutely mortified when pooping/peeing occurs in the house, and I feel his pain... I haven't made a big deal over it, but he "crates" himself and it took me a while today to coax him out... poor guy... he just breaks my heart.
