Ally update

Hi Everyone,
I wanted to wait until after her checkup at Tufts today...
We've had 2 rounds of the 'new chemo' and it seems to be working but it is hard to tell. Our oncologist says that the tumor doesn't look smaller but, given where it is, it's really tough to tell. Her appetite, energy and weight are stable (actually good!) and so we continue.
We know there's been positive change-because we SEE it in her.
Please continue the thoughts and prayers as they ARE working. We know so many of you ask about her, think about her and support us and we are SO thankful, we can't even tell you in words.
The oncologist is heartened by her condition and so are our own vets at the FABULOUS Countryside! Dr. Dawn, Dr. Brian, Dr. Jackie, Dr. Julie, Dr. Kerry, Dr. P.J...they've all taken such wonderful care of Ally. (Along with Joan, Mary and Lee of course!) We know that all the support Ally receives from us, her doctors and all her Jazzerfamily IS making a difference. LOVE is the strongest medicine there is so thank you, thank you, thank you for giving her so much and please, don't stop now...
We love you all.
