    Chemo Round 2 is tomorrow. They're going to cut back the drug that caused my ear pain/ringing by 20%, we'll see if that helps. Head shaved last Monday, today, the fuzz that's left is falling out like snow falls. Still have eyebrows and eyelashes for now.

    Thank you all for your support and kind words. I truly appreciate the time you take to lift my spirits. I'm feeling very alone in this and rereading your comments helps when I'm down.

    Dear Gayle, we're sending you loads of love and good wishes that Chemo Round 2 goes smoothly and that the ear ringing and pain will be less with the cutback on that drug.

    I can't imagine what you are going through but maybe one day I will. So sorry for all the freaky stuff you must endure but it seems to be the best protocol Drs. have to offer and I am sure you will get through this with flying colours. You just hang in there and know that we all have your back here at Pet Talk and are wishing the best for you every single second. Sending the biggest, heartfelt hug,brave girl 🌹❤️

    I've reached the half way point. Tuesday's chemo will be Round 3. After that there's just 3 more treatments.
