The latest....

Well I've had time to digest things and am in a much better place at the moment.  Beli and I went to the specialist this week; we listened to the options and have chosen what will work for us.  Treatments are of course expensive but aside from that I decided that only non invasive techniques would be acceptable for Beli and I.  While we don't have a great chance of the melanoma vaccine working that is what we are going for.  We get the first vaccine tomorrow and he started two meds today, a pain reliever cancer inhibitor as well as a anti-inflammatory.  We are hoping for a healthy immune response!  This is the best chance he has and I wanted to do all I could.  So we are living with cancer at the moment, I am fully aware that it could change at any time!
In other goings ons...  we are expecting babies!!!  Woohoo!  Bubbles was bred to JD (CWCCA Nationals WD), it helps to have something to look forward to:-))  So puppies are expected around Feb 17th, fingers crossed for smooth sailing.
We have had loads of lambs now too.  Two sets of triplets, 3 sets of twins and 1 single.  Still three mommas expecting, should be in the next couple weeks for them too.  They are eating us out of house and home now, this has been the driest January on record for us.  We are parched!
I will do my best to get pics over the weekend.  I also have dogs to wash and take care of and life to catch up with since I have been mentally unavailable:-))

  3. My first Cardi got a rare lymphoma on his lip at 14. We treated it with Prednisone and a pill form of chemo. He weathered the treatment pretty well for an old guy, and it held back the cancer. He made it to just short of 17! I hope and pray Beli has the same success and good luck we had.
