durabolin


this was added to her treatment since she is becoming a rare case, with still no regeneration in the marrow.
its a human anabolic steroid that took some major effort to get my hands on.
she was given her first shot on wednesday and at this point will receive a 15mg dose once per week.
im praying something helps soon...

body changes

these are tough images to look at...
unfortunately, the prednisone and other meds used to regenerate cells will cause side effects to the animal.
this is the nature of the beast, and you have to always remember that the goal is to make sure the red blood cells begin to recreate.
it is hard to see your dogs body break down in front of your eyes but they will regain form when the cells react and you are able to then ween them off the meds.
sway is still in this stage, but i talk to many people who have been there and got thru it, able to see a better day, so i will try to stay focused.
