Update on me

We went to see the Radiation Onc at the University of Miami for a consultation today. I had lots of questions that I needed answered and went there even though I knew that I would probably have rads done a little closer to home. Because of the issues I had while taking chemo I wanted to be sure I was getting honest and truthfull information. I am trying to schedule an appontment with the Radiation Onc that she recommended. He works at a hospital about 24 miles from our home. Hopefully all will work out as it should and I will start rads before the end of this month.
Now about the dog. We took Lucky to the vet and had them give her all of her shots, worming, Heartguard and Front line. Vet says she is about 9 months to a year old, weighs 49.8 pounds and is a Catahoula Hound. She is a hunting dog. I thought sure she would have a chip but no chip. We are having her spayed today and then we will try to find a good home for her. There is just too much going on in our lives for us to keep her. She is a good dog and very affectionate but we want to travel when I retire in Sept and it would not be fair to her to board her for weeks at a time. I have a couple of people at work that might be interested and I am going to post a pic of her at the vets office. If I can figure it out I will post pics on the Expressions Page.
Welcome to all the newbies.
Hugs to all

Donna, I was really happy to
Donna, I was really happy to read that things are progressing for you. Before you know it, you will be finished with rads. I sure do hope, for your sake, that you get to do the rads closer to home. But, most importantly, is to do them. As far as Lucky, all I can say is she has a very appropriate name. Lucky for her you came along and got her all straightened out and ready to enjoy the rest of her life with a new family. You did good!! Take care and keep us updated as you progress through rads.
