Sam has completed her scheduled treatments over the past couple weeks. She had another treatment today. One more next week and then Dr Landry has mentioned that we can officially say that Sam is in remission. How cool is that!!! The treatment pattern, after next week, will then fall into once every other week.
We had our usual ritual of a Chick-fil-a stop today, post Chemo treatment. She absolutely loves the grilled chicken nuggets. It is funny, the drive through employee usually asks if I would like a dog treat for my dog, waiting patiently in the back seat. I tell them, no thank you... that is what I purchased the chicken for. They usually look at me kind of odd. I don't take the time to tell the employee that she is working through a cancer treatment. She gets whatever she wants.
Sam was a bit grouchy from the IV port today. The facility had to wrap up her leg before we left. But, as I settled in at the home office to start my evening work, I noticed Sam had pretty much unwrapped the bandage by herself. Tough to do without thumbs and only teeth. Grin. Smart Corgi.
Our morning and afternoon walks are beautiful now that the weather is finally into a summer pattern. In our rural home location we now have to watch for snakes. Sam especially likes to venture into the ditches. While Taz prefers to stay out of the mud and on the gravel our asphalt. Sam is more of the "Tom Boy" female Corgi.
I have just ordered another 12 pack of the Kong squeaker tennis balls. They should be here in a few days. We can never have enough of those... they tend to end up under couches and beds. Both the Corgi's absolutely love them. Sam is especially proud of them when she chases them down. She loves to prance up the driveway, carrying the tennis ball. Squeaking them occasionally with her jaw as if to communicate in some sort of code. Grin Proving that she is the boss of all things tennis ball related.
