LizzysDad,
He (Riggo) went through a very intensive week long treatment in late September followed by 2 mini cycles of chemo. We are battling cancer on 2 fronts; bone marrow and lymph nodes. Both the bone marrow and lymph nodes went into remission in November. Recently however his lymph nodes flared up again and I decided to put him though a mini-cycle again. This has been extremely tough on me as I am single and live alone and he is like a son to me so I wanted to do everything I could for him hoping for a very long remission. I've run into many other pet cancer patients at the clinic and most of them have reported long remission times of 2 years or so with their pets. He is seeing probably the top vet oncologist on the East coast in West Chester Philadelphia.
In general he has always responded well to chemo with some side effects of diarhea and vomitting although it hasn't really been that bad.
