Today Moses had his second "official" post amputation, chemo (osteosarcoma) check-up by his specialist at Angell Memorial Animal Hospital in Boston. The doctor is less inclined to feel that there is cancer in the spine since Moses has improved and is more readily and easily ambulatory. So, we hope he is in remission. Xrays will be done every three months, with the next scheduled for May. Moses will continue receiving monthly check-ups at Angell for now. I believe that weekly aquapuncture is helping Moses a great deal. One of his nail coverings came off, was chewed off, who knows, so he will take an antibiotic in case of infection. Moses' attitude is wonderful. Minute by minute, I am inspired by his courage and optimistic outlook.
While we were in the examining room waiting for Moses' doctor, I became even more aware of the wisdom in the eyes of an old dog as I looked into Moses', such depth, so different from the gaze of a pup, who has yet to discover life's treasures and know its secrets.
