First visit to vet on 9Mar after I notice swollen lymph nodes on her neck, sample extract surface test high chance cancer. Asked to go back on 11Mar am to take blood test. Refer to VES. Result out 18Mar. Cancer marker "Very High risk"
20Mar, first visit to VES w Doc Koo. Took blood test n sample extract for detail test.
21Mar am. Received call from VES. Confirm cancer lymphoma. Rush down meet Doc Koo to discuss n understand the option we have for her treatment.
(1) 19 session chemo @ est $800 each. Exclude any possible complication incur along the way. Est another 12mths life( from tdy) -- we can't afford. So this is out of our range.
(2) 5 sessions chemo @ est $800 each. Exclude any possible complication incur along the way. Est another 6mths life ( from tdy) -- doc advice set aside $6k due to other test or complication along the way. N each time need IV drip n do blood test. If white blood cell fail, then need return another day to redo test n consider do tat session chemo.
(3) Give her oral medicine steroids daily. Est 2-3 mths life ( from tdy)
After discussing w Seng n Chloe. We decide to go for opt 3. Avoid all the further testing. Just to extend another 3 mths life via all the chemo. Not worth to go thro the pain. Mayb some might think we are cruel to give up treatment. But it's really not an easy decision.
Album created to record her progress... N keep all the memories we hv w her for the last stage of her life. Hope she will go through easily w least suffer in final stage.
