Hiya all,

Just thought id let you know how my boy Charlie is.... (he has lyphoma)
On Monday i took him for a check up as i was concerned about the amount of panting he was doing. He went back yesterday for xrays plus blood tests.
I was told to expect bad news :( ie a tumour somewhere
He hasnt!!
The blood tests showed his white blood cells were not normal, which they wouldnt be would they?
Also that the treatment he's been on has caused liver damage. I knew this was a risk....
His medication has beed decreased, now.
Wondering if anyone can tell me if i should give him thistle's milk?
I guess you might be thinking a bit late in the day... BUT i never give up hope and while theres a will theres a way!
He's fine in himself and i thank god for every minute he's with me. Every second is precious

Thanks
Donna and charliex (murphy toox)

Not sure what Thistles milk is ?

I am glad he is still rallying and seems to be OK in himself and still enjoying life. Hope this continues.

Milk thistle's good for liver problems, if that's any help. Even doctors recommend you take it to help cure a hangover....not that I'd know anything about that ;) !

Hi
Anything is worth a go , lyphoma sufferers can have many yrs after diagnos, so why not try it if it makes you happy.
Love to charlie xx
