This is very much a repeat of part 22 ‘remission again’ from earlier in the year.

The fifth protocol has worked, and once again everything went smoothly until the visit to NDSR for Epirubicin where we had to delay things a little whilst his neutrophils recovered. I should probably pay more attention to the treatment tracker spreadsheet to adapt things to past patterns so we’re not wasting time and money on vet visits.

Past parts:

1. diagnosis and initial treatment

2. first setback

3. back on track

4. second setback

5. easing the pace

6. counting the cost

7. fat boy

8. done CHOPping for now

9. scans

10. relapse

11. remission

12. complications

13. more H

14. three

15. scans (again)

16. relapse redux

17. remission redux

18. OK but delays

19. four

20. extended remission

21. CHOP #4

22. remission again

23. five

24. fifth protocol
