They Talked!!!!

Adrienne's onc (Dr. Dang) and the urologist (Dr. Leo) touched base this morning. While Dr. Leo thinks this is cystitis, he can't be sure that she doesn't have bladder cancer. Oh great. We don't for a minute think this is bladder cancer but we'll continue to play the game. Adrienne seems ever so slightly better, and if things continue to improve, she may be able to skip Friday's biopsy. We're just going to play it by ear for the next few days.

Saturday night was Light The Night here and the turnout was amazing. I had been to two in the Bay Area and they weren't nearly as large. They even ran out of balloons before we got ours, but all that matters is that the fundraising was successful. Gus came along too. I don't know if he enjoyed himself but the socialization was good for him, and he laid in Adrienne's lap the whole time while we ate dinner. He's such a good puppy.

Hi Alison - you just took my breath away for a second when I read the beginning of your post! Glad to hear Adrienne is feeling even slightly better. So sorry we missed doing your LTN event with you on Sat night...we had a team of 11 and 2 dogs (including Jenny and family) walking with us on Sunday night ( 2.75 miles). I'm paying for it today since it was too much for my leg...but the night was warm and pleasant and there was a large crowd. I'll post a pic on the forum.

Glad your LTN was a great success - and that Gus was a good wee boy!!

Still hoping that all this bladder stuff gets resolved quickly and have got fingers crossed that the biopsy will not be needed.........love as always........Vx

Gus is obviously a dog superstar!

Take care . . . hope this bladder thing can get worked on so you can move on to treatment again.
