Why am I writing this?
I have known many, many people who have had their dogs die from cancer. In many cases, the cancer was too far advanced to treat. Of those who did treat, you don't know the details of what they went through. It sounds quite simple when summarized with 'we went though chemo and he lived 2 years'. There is a whole lot more emotion and decisions to be made. Treatment is not always simple.
This blog is my own personal experience. Some days are filled with frustration, others are filled with laughter. If anyone is offended, I can't apologize for my emotions. I typed what I felt at the time. It does not mean I feel the same today. If you want clarification, just ask. No matter my frustrations, I know my vet and oncologist are doing a fantastic job of caring for Arri. He just is not co-operating by being a 'typical' case.
Fabulous photos of handsome Arri, Dee. Thank you for sharing these, and thank you more for your honest blog. I have really enjoyed being a part of your journey--especially because I lost my beloved Rodeo to this hideous disease. I feel like you and Arri are saying "Eat garbage, cancer!" to you both!
