So I took Sydney to her first chemo administration today. I dropped her off at 8:30 am and the vet's called me at 11:30 am so she could go home. Last night Sydney managed to pull out one of her stiches and she started leaking mucous out of the top of her nose. The vet said that this was actually not a bad thing because it let out some of the drainage and pressure - and suprisingly, I could tell that she felt better last night. So I went and picked her up and she was near panicing. She kept banging her face into the carrier and trying to escape. It was so hard for me to watch. The vet said because of the chemo that she is to stay in the carrier till 3:00 pm. She was so upset. I ended up putting her carrier in my room with all the lights off and my little fountain turned on to try to calm her. I additonally cut up the egg shell matrice on my bed to help as a padding for the front of the carrier. I just hope she is able to calm down. She is miserable and it is absolutely horrible to watch. The only reason I am not totally upset and loosing it is because she has finnally got some treatment. I just wish it didnt make her feel so horrible. Luckily, next week, she doesnt have to go in there for chemo, I just give her a pill. That is much less traumatic for her. I just hope she is able to calm herself down, I worry about her heart. My poor baby.![]()
