Raven: AKA Cancer Arse Kicker!!!

YEAH!!! Raven's white blood cell count back up to 2.5 today...which is excellent since they only need it to be 2 for treatment and last week it was 1.4
She is still in partial remission and the oncologist reckons she's getting there. The nurse who discharged her today said that often the first three treatments will place them into partial remission and that the fourth treatment (with the strongest drug Doxorubicin) will just kick them into full remission. The Oncologist was happy with how good she was looking (this week just gone was much better than the week before that) and went with the same dose today as she got the first time. It was the Vincristine again, and as she'd had a mild reaction the first time he'd decided not to raise the dosage.
I can barely find the lymph nodes behind her stifles now which is a very positive sign. She was very happy to see me once again when I picked her up, the Nurse said she was a model patient, and very good to treat and a non-barker which every vet industry worker would appreciate I guess! So definitely good news! Monday's have a certain sense of trepidation about them now and the news at 3.30pm is something I think about most of the day. I just hope everything goes as smoothly as it has so far.
