Ahh, Summer’s on its way…

We opened our pool early last week, just in time for a springtime heatwave!  It was 90 degrees here over the weekend!  Though neither of the dogs are swimmers, they are not often very far from the edge when people are in the pool.  Our nephews came to visit,  so there was plenty of action at poolside – splashing, barking, wet noses and wet paws!  Ahh, summer…I can feel it…just around the corner.  🙂

Ginger was back for her second round of chemo today,  and seems to be doing quite well.  She isn’t as tired this time, which is nice.  This was her second dose of Carboplatin.  She gets one more of those, then 3 doses of Adriamycin and then we’re done.  She was on antibiotics last week due to a low white blood cell count discovered during one of the interim blood tests,  but everything was in range today, so she got her second dose.  

Except for the ride to the hospital – which is a nightmare – everything is going very smoothly, so far.  Ginger has had lots of energy, and has a great time rolling and running in the yard.  It is really hard to believe that she is sick!
