Hamlet's Weekly Update - 03/22/10

Meesh · 03-22-2010, 04:43 PM

Happy Spring to everyone! Today, Hamlet was at Penn for week 7 of his chemo treatments. They also checked his bloodwork. His counts are "unremarkable", his anemia improved slightly, and the liver enzymes improved A LOT again this week! Yay! He is almost 75 pounds which is his average pre-diagnosis. Some of his nodes are still slightly enlarged so they won't say he's in remission just yet but they did say that the nodes have improved with every week he's been in. All in all, he's doing great and everyone is pleased with his progress...especially mommy!

He even wore out my parents' younger dogs playing this weekend. Thanks to everyone for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers.

Michelle, Rufus & Hamlet (dx 01/29/10 tx 02/01/10)
