Weight Gain

We found out Rumble gained 0.25 pounds this week.  That's great; a fourth of a pound in a week is awesome.  He now weighs 0.1 MORE than he did when he went in for surgery back in April.  We are on an upward slope and climbing steadily. 

Chemo was good.  "Unremarkable" is always the term you want to hear.  That means his blood was within normal parameters and chemo went just fine.  I always enjoy it when my checkout papers say "unremarkable" at the top. 

Two weeks off and we start round 5.  Then our vet thinks Rumble will get a month to 6 weeks off, we will bring him in for his ultrasound sometime, and decide after all that, what to do.  Maybe chemo once a month?  Who knows?  Let's all just cross our fingers that he has another great two weeks off during his drug holiday and gains at least another 0.6 pounds like he did last time.
