TESSY Update...Could use some thoughts, prayers and vibes!

 Oh no! Sending so many good vibes for healing and strength and health!! Tessy is such an inspiration, such a fighter, and is ridiculously lucky to have you on her team--kicking butt is nothing new to you guys : ) Please keep us all updated--thinking about you!!

Again...thanks a million everyone.  Tessy and I really appreciate the support here! 

The two nodes have grown in size since yesterday but just by a bit.  It all but confirms a lymphoma relapse!    I've been really trying to hit it hard with the herbals and will be adding a couple others tomorrow.  I just got done talking online with a great holistic vet who is gonna walk me through the steps to try a holistic approach to treatment.  I'm both excited and nervous at the same time. 

This whole thing has really thrown me for a loop! 

Have I ever said how much i HATE cancer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks again.  I'll keep you all posted.

Absolutely -- that truly is the best best thing you can do for her now.  *hugs*

Oh no... I'm sorry to hear all of this. Tessy is so lucky to have you. I'm with you on hating cancer, we're about to lose one to it here and it seems so darn senseless and aggressove. What did you do the first time Tessy had lymphoma? How was it trated then?

 I am so sorry Johnny - sending our warmest hugs and strongest vibes to you and Tessy!

Thanks again everyone.  The nerves are better today than they were yesterday!

What did you do the first time Tessy had lymphoma? How was it trated then?

I decided to use the MW Protocol the first time around consisting of various chemotherapeutic drugs...with nasty side effects.  Luckily Tessy handles these drugs very well and only showed few side effects.  This time around money issues won't allow me to follow a similar route so i'm left with treating holistically...which makes me nervous of course.  I've read quite a bit about these techniques over the past year so have a somewhat good understanding of what would be used and how.  I was in contact with a holistic consultant yesterday and started Tessy on a plan last night.  The lymph nodes haven't shrunk any but they've only grown just a little bit.  I'm really really hoping this new treatment plan works an dI can heal from the inside out.  Everything's closed around here until Tuesday so can't start on some things till then  I'm hoping things stay at bay till then.

I'm pretty sure my head is gonna explode!  LOL  I'm thinking i might get some rescue remedy for myself to calm me down some.

Anyhow, that's where we stand at the moment.  Thanks again for the support.

 Sorry this is happening. I hope you are able to help Tessy.  As someone who has had dogs with cancer, I want to share this with all.

There are some charitable entities that might be able to help people whose dogs have cancer.

{{{{Johnny and Tessy}}} You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Tons and tons of prayers for your little girl. (((HUGS)))

John I keep thinking of you and Tessy today *hugs*

 (((Johnny))); sending all my thoughts and prayers.

Well, we're a week into treating the relapse holistically and so far i think it's just slowing the relapse.  The holistic vet said that it could take a week or two for everything to start working so i'll give it a bit longer. 

I think she's taking years off my life!  LOL

Just want to thank those who sent their thoughts and prayers.  I don't know if she quite understands when i read them to her but it's helps relieve the stress for me! 

I'll keep you posted on how things go with her.  Thanks again!

I truly hope this works for her. Please keep us updated... I check this thread all the time!

 Just seeing this now!!! Hugs and strong vibes headed your way from all of us.

Johnny I continue to say prayers that this treatment works. Tessy may not understand all the words you sad but I have no doubt that she feels the love and care from you. (((Hugs))) for both of you and be sure to take care of yourself in the process of taking care of her.
