Day 3 Update

Oakley is pretty tired today.  I think perhaps that he didn't get his treatment until later in the day.  He seemed like he just sort of woke up from anesthesia or something when I saw him after work.  John came home from his business trip and was able to pick Oakley up on his way home from the airport.  They said everything went great again. 

He was very hungry and very thirsty, so at least he has his appetite and he wanted seconds.  I just can't wait for the weekend so he'll have 2 days of rest.  He really needs it - we all do!  I don't think we'll be going for our evening walk tonight.  Even though I know he would go, I just think he needs to relax tonight.

Honestly, I just can't imagine that even when we are done with this week we'll still have 3 more weeks to go!!  I just keep reminding myself that if we can get through this treatment process, and he starts to heal, he will hopefully get back to his regular self, because he really isn't right now.  But, we are giving him lots of love and affection and I hope he's comforted a little bit.

Here is today's picture.  It is a great one!! :)

He actually looks fairly happy and upbeat in this picture, but unfortunately his demeanor is anything but. As it is right now, he's kind of lost that twinkle in his eyes.  I know he's just not feeling himself or very well, and I really think right now it is due to the fact he has to be at the hospital all day long and because of the daily anesthesia he receives.
One more day and then we can all take a little break...at least until Monday.
Good night!!
