Side effects of Chemo... Here they come


Got up to find that ernie had vomited last night….  L  a big huge wet spot on the carpet.  I found out because he was actually licking it up.  Bleah.

At 8:30am gave pred/anti nausea/anti diarrhea. And some tripe.  Showered and made eggs…..no go..  Was just getting ready to go to work and he was acting weird .. and then bleah…vomited.  It was at 9:15 so I was worried that he threw up his meds.  So I sorted thru tripe vomit … yeah, I did that.….   And didn’t find any pills.  So decided not to give him any more.   We went outside and he settled down.. then we came in.  I left him w/ some some Blue Buffalo dog biscuits and tripe and the eggs.

Came home around 3pm.  He had vomited again – on the floor and on the couch.  Probably came on quickly and couldn’t get up fast enough.  Poor bunny.   Gave him an anti nausea.  We went out back and sat outside for a bit.  Came in.  He started looking for food….  Gave him one biscuit and he ate it, so gave him two more.  He also ate some wellness jerky.  Left a couple of biscuits with him and went back to work.

Home from work late.  Gave pred at 8:30pm – at least got that on time.  Went to run a quick errand and brought the dogs.   Stopped at Mcdonalds to have an  ‘in case’ meal.  Up to now he really likes McDonalds hamburgers.  I really don't care what is 'healthy' or not....  Its all about him eating.  We stopped at his favorite park and he was so happy to be there! I thought maybe we would sit at a picnic table and eat but he wanted to chase his frisbee, So we chased the Frisbee for  a little bit, but became interested in the bag of food I was holding.  So we hopped in the car and headed home.  He ate some hamburger.  Ya. 

Today I bought some Blue Buffalo Wilderness.  I figured if he liked the Blue Buffalo treats, maybe he would like the food.  He ate 1 1/3 cups!!!  What?!?  Yes…  I hope he continues to like it J  it’s a very good food.

He is resting right now.   Tomorrow is chemo. As long as his blood values are good, etc.  I hope that his weight is ok…
