Lounging Jacket October 27th 2011

Its that time again on the east coast of the United States - fall, quickly followed by winter. As the days started to cool, I remembered how much Princess liked her jacket. Last weekend we dug it out of the closet. One of the key phases that she definitely knows is; " you want your jacket?" most days in the winter months  I'm working in the house in full winter garb and Princess is in her jacket.

Princess is about the same today, we just went for a walk around the yard and she pretty much walked on "the leg".  It's been a couple of weeks since she even put it down so its gotten pretty weak. Her left leg is strong as a bull frogs leg from all that hopping.

Its been 10 days and 19 doses of Navy Protocol Drugs since Princess's diagnosis. I can say without a doubt that she has improved steadily each day. We can't see what's inside her leg, but she does not appear to be in any pain and she's starting to walk on it. Soon, we'll be taking her back to our primary vet for a check-up. I think he'll be impressed!
The speed of this turn-around is astounding. If  Best Girl can live out whatever time she has left in this condition, it will be a miracle.  Even if the cancer has not abated, the Navy Protocol routine has brought her back to a pain-free happy state for these last days. But we're hoping for better. Not just for Princess but for all of your dogs out there. Stay with us and I'll continue to document her progress and pray for her recovery.

Best Girl Ever
