My rescue, Diva at 12 yo, has been diagnosed with lymphoma. Decided against chemo. She is on Panacure , fenbendazol, Astaxanthin, prednisone and some 6% hydrogen peroxide in her water. Glands have gone way down, almost gone. Praise the Lord!
How did you find this regimen and what amount on the doses?
My sweetheart Mylo was diagnosed last year. The chemotherapies and prednisolone gave him almost a year, but now his organs are too weak for more treatments. He is off chemos but still on 4 0 mg prednisolone. He is eating and still wagging his tail. He has started getting trouble walking and he keeps pulling me back home. The doctor gave us a few days. I wish cancer didnt exist, Mylo is a 3year old beagle 😢
I just lost my Lacey Bug on Good Friday to Lymphoma. 2 months from diagnosis
You are very lucky! Unfortunately my beautiful golden retriever boy passed of Lymphoma cancer at 8 years old.
This gives me hope. I got the news today my boy Hank has lymphoma. They don’t know what kind until I see the oncologist. It’s shocking. He has no lymph node swelling at all. It was just a small mass on his lip they removed and found it was lymphoma. He’s acting totally fine. I hope he is as lucky as your girl was 🤍
I followed most of what Dr. Jones/Veterinary Secrets. Antioxidant supplements and high protein, high fat, low carb diet. Benadryl. Blended it into a baby food basically. Force-fed her with a Boba straw and syringe. Thought she'd pass overnight 2 weeks ago. She's gained back her weight. The lymph node has gone from orange sized to almost gone. She's happy and sassy again. This was all before I started her on Panacur, a dog dewormer, that supposedly keeps cancer at bay. I do 3 days on and 4 days off. Right on her food. So far so good.
Awesome video! I'm picking up my first Boondock in a few weeks and this gave me so many great ideas, thanks for posting
Plenty of Turmeric in the diet your probably never see a tumour
I'll be buying a real mattress for whatever model I get, sleeping on thin pads is for younger people. I was surprised to learn how many companies make RV sized mattresses. Definitely an important upgrade.
nice.
Nobody may see this since it’s been a while since the video was posted, but the hope you give means a great deal. My little Isabel is showing cancer, mainly in a lymph node, but not the melanoma that was removed from her mouth. I’ve got a wonderful team of people working on it at a clinic in West Michigan, a friend who is helping with the expenses, because he’s the one that gave her to me when I got her at age 10 and a lot of people praying for her. The doctor said tonight we might be able to remove one lymph node and we know that this has not spread to her organs, but there is a high White blood cell count in her blood. I hope we have the same good results with whatever we have to do for my little Isabel. She’s known by many people as the station dog for radio station, WION, and she even has her own page on our website under the team members category… She’s also my constant companion for the past three years since she was saved from the pound. Thank you for an encouraging video that I really needed to see tonight in my research about dog cancer.
Thanks for that video. What was the treatment for Z? Thanks
We have been treating out 11 yo (approximately) rescue since January 2023 for lymphoma. She started out on chlorambucil with a prednisone chaser. Unfortunately, that protocol only worked for 8 months. We switched CHOP protocol and it seems to be working great. She has her next infusion tomorrow. It’s definitely not cheap, but I can’t stand the thought of her not being here.
Thank you for the video. Would you get the Tag XL Boondocks again? Are you still loving it? Please let me know. Thank you.
Yes. We still have it and love it. Over 4 years now. We can’t store anything outside so having it in the garage waiting for us is wonderful. We have been on lots of shorter trips and have done 3 long trips to New Mexico, Arcadia and circling Lake Superior.
Simply open up the roof vent when using the stove. Alde controls can be changed to night mode. We use the Tab as twin beds. We take off the backs cushions. And love the wet bath. And simply we can stand up.. Basically it would never work for you anyway, since you live in an HOA. Unless you rent storage? The Tag is a coffin. Listen that rear kitchen is awful on a rainy chilly day. Much rather have a Aliner fold-up camper then that coffin you stay in . Both have small fridges; We own two Travel Trailers a Grand Design couples couch and the Tab 320. Will be changing the Tab 320 for a Tab 400. We use the Tab for our winter camping outside of Florida. We had to spend 1,800 customizing the cushions in the Tab 320 for better sleep.
Thank you for sharing your story. Our little honey Pepper was just diagnosed with lymphoma out of the blue. He was fine and perfectly healthy on a Sunday and by that Tuesday, I noticed lumps in his throat and a very red (what looked like a rash) near his nether region. I took him in on Wednesday and his vet performed bloodwork and took a sampling from the enlarged nodes that were now noticeable all over his body. His bloodwork came back normal, RBC-Red Blood Count (normal, 6.23); Lymphocytes (low, .81); Platelets (normal (253); WBC-White Blood Count (normal, 14.44). His bloodwork is better than mine. He has an appointment with an oncologist on Monday. Please, if you could be so kind, send positive thoughts for our baby boy as he goes through this trying time. We want to continue to spoil him rotten for the rest of his life's journey.
Thank you for sharing your journey. How is Pepper doing now? Sending all the love to you & your family. 🖤
We're starting the same journey today with my Beau. January 2024 his bloodwork was described as "absolutely beautiful". In March I knew something wasn't right, but no swollen glands and still "beautiful" bloodwork, but he would sometimes gag a little after eating. He's always been a bit of a pig even with a slow bowl, so we blamed the occasional gag on that. June 6th the vast majority of his lymph nodes were swelling fast. Over the course of 3 days they were affecting his ability to eat, drink and breathe. On the 3rd day he saw the vet and we got the bad news. Searching for options now to keep him as comfortable as possible for as long as possible. He's a big boy and 14 years old, so we're blessed that this didn't occur until now. I'm not going to put him through chemo and tons of appointments at this stage, but I would love to slow it down if I can do so without causing him additional discomfort or stress.
Thanks for the comparison. As a single traveler I think the TAG XL will work for me and my Subaru Outback can pull it without a problem. I loved the ending of you video, too funny!
We have had a Tag and now have a 2018 Tab. The Tag worked for a few years. It was light weight and easily pulled behind our Tacoma 4 cylinder. The main problems we faced were 1. no bathroom or shower, not a big deal unless you camp in a state or federal forest campground, and 2. As you get older, the Tag is harder to get into. We like the Tab better because you can stand up in it, you have the bathroom, the heating system, although the Aldi system takes awhile to warmup the trailer, and you have more storage. It pulls easily with our 6 cylinder Tacoma although the gas mileage drops about 4 mpg. We have to store it outside, the Tag fit in the garage even with the truck and Prius. I wish our Tab had the cassette toilet. There are many more reasons we like the Tab over the Tag. They both are built well and require minor maintenance.
February 26, 2022 my soul dog was diagnosed with lymphoma and he was in such a bad way, March 5th 2022 he started a series of chemo treatments and actually did really well, today he is here, happy and active as can be for age 11. He had an appointment today and is still in remission. He receives maintenance chemo at a low dose every two to three months now and he still handles it well. It is hard to say with lymphoma and we are so fortunate to have had 19 months and we hope for at least a few months or more but I take it day by day. I hope for everyone going through this you know it is not your fault and that all you can do is take it day by day and love every moment you have. There is hope.
Thank you for this in depth comparison. I'm actually visiting an rv dealer and will test a tab and a tag to see which is a better fit. The inside bathroom might deal the deal. (But wish the toilet was cassette...) Cheers and happy travels.
WE’RE LIVING YOUR STORY TODAY! We rescued our Saint Bernard Rex in January 2018 and were told he was approximately 4 years old. His papers at the Humane Society had many warnings, so we took him on a trial basis. We know he was an outside dog, but we want our dogs to be used to being indoors also. So, when we brought him into our house, he was a little uncomfortable for a while, but loved it after about a half hour. He was so chill and loving, so we adopted him. We had one scare in July 2020, when we drove him from Washington state to Phoenix where we were moving to be closer to our daughter’s family. We weren’t at her house in Phoenix for more than an hour and Rex was obviously not doing well. We hauled him to a vet emergency clinic, and he was diagnosed with a flipped stomach. They ended up doing emergency surgery, and the recovery went well. In March of 2023 we took Rex in for routine shots. The vet was concerned about a lymph node and took a sample for a biopsy. The test came back positive, and we were told he had 4-6 weeks to live. We took him to an oncologist the next week where we were given a prescription of 40mg a day of Prednisone. At the time Rex was doing fine and we thought we just caught it early, so the vet said to start him on it using our best judgement. We came home about 4 weeks later and one of his jowls was swollen and hanging down 2-3 inches lower than the other side, so I started him on the steroid. In hindsight, I wish I’d held off a couple days, but I panicked, and we were already 6 weeks since they took a biopsy sample. In early June, 12 weeks after the biopsy, we took him into the oncologist to find out all but one of his lymph nodes had shrunk. They renewed the prescription but changed it from 40mg to 30mg. Then in July, 16 weeks in, they renewed his prescription again. We went in again in August, 21 weeks in, where they did bloodwork to make sure all his organs were working properly being on the steroid, which they were. Now the concern is Rex had gained a bunch of weight because we have been spoiling him for the last 5 months, and we were told to try and bring it down. Every day we feel like we’ve gotten bonus time with Rex. Now your story gives us hope, although our day-to-day feelings will never change. We’ve always thought he was a special dog, and he’ll be treated like one until his last day. Thank you for Sadie’s story. It gives us hope, but we will always cherish our bonus time with our family member.
My sweet girl, Hailey, was just diagnosed with Lymphoma. She is only 5 y/o, I can’t believe she is going. 😢
My heart goes out to you and to others whose lives have been affected by this disease. One of my little rescued dogs developed lymphoma. Due to a delay in diagnosis, I felt I had to get started on treatment right away. I had only got her when she was 5 years old, so I wanted to give her --- and me -- more time if I could. She tolerated the chemotherapy well (except for losing a lot of her abundant fur) and she was in remission for longer than expected -- I think it was 2 years altogether. When the cancer recurred, we restarted the same treatment, but she had a bad reaction to it this time. She pulled through that crisis, with supportive treatment. After that, they said she was not in pain, so we let the disease run its course. After a sedative, she passed away at home in a comfy bed while we all watched t.v. The treatment was expensive, but my mantra is "it's cheaper than buying a new dog." Since that time, I tell gardeners not to use Roundup in the back yard, The yard does not look so great, but my other dogs are safer that wa
Is it painful on their last day of life, if they are on Prednisone. What do I look out for ?
Thanks for sharing. Blessings.
I really like the silverware holder and the small tongs for your toaster. Thanks for the mods. Your camper looks great
And she says in the tag we have made covers for the lights but bitch about the 320 lights doesn’t make sense sounded like just wanting to bitch
So cute!
Thanks, a video that shows real world use of the campers is to rare here, this is valuable. Looking to pick up a tag 320 at some point - bathroom, fridge and I am only 5’6”. I wish it would fit in a garage - only downside for me. The new tag barefoot looks great, almost same floor plan 320 so I am not sure you’d sleep better in that and I don’t think they are available just yet. Thanks again!
Your fur pal looks just like mine down to red color. You are so lucky. Mine had mast cell tumor. He was so miserable. It was so sudden and little time to make decision. He just collapsed on Tuesday. I set him free on Thursday. I just had tumors xrayed and checked and on Monday when vet told me they were fine. Then this new tumor just appeared 7 days after xrays. He was playful day before. I am still in shock but the vet and I agree it was best to set him free. I am devastated. 😢
My two and a half year old pug was diagnosed two days ago. Waiting for more lab results. She was a rescue from South Korea one year ago. Hoping for the best.
Hi there, any updates on your sweet pug?
My pug was lucky and we found out she has indolent T-zone lymphoma with a 2-4 survival average. She is seeing an oncologist and is on prednisone and chlorambucil. Doing well.
Correction.... that
Hat is a good testament to pet owners. Never euthanize immediately with bad news. Our dogs deserve a second chance.
Thanks for sharing in the market for a t@g now. Videos like yours have helped us in our choice for a t@g. Thanks again
I saw this and watched because I'm currently going thru this with my 6 year old German Shepherd. He has B cell and we did the 4 month Chemo Chop Therapy. It was terribly expensive (over 20k) but I'd rather have the dog than the money. Well, one month after Chop, it's back. They gave him 2 months to live, I'm on week 6. His neck is swelling again and he's panting alot. I'm just spoiling him until I can't anymore...
@lt dan - my dog is going through chemo now too. She's on her 2nd month of chemo (doing chop also) but still has not gone into remission. Dr. said most dogs would have gone into remission after about the 2nd or 3rd chemo visit. But she seems to be comfortable and enjoying life so I am continuing with the chemo which will be about 19 weeks. Did your dog ever go into remission? If the chemo stops working does the dog live feeling sick? I really dread when that time comes.
I've had my boxer girl on Apoquel for a month and she has developed very large lymph nodes all of a sudden. I read that lymphoma can be a side effect. I feel so guilty for putting her on it... I've discontinued it but I'm praying that her lymph nodes will go back to normal as before and that no permanent damage was done. 😭😭😭
We gave our 12 year old 2 drops of Rick Simpson Oil daily and after 2-3 weeks, her lymph nodes went back to normal and she started acting like a puppy again
That's so awesome! We're going through this now with my 8yo baby pup and want to try the Rick Simpson Oil but want to make sure we get the best one. Where did u buy it from?
Is your dog detected with lymphoma... this oil have THC which is dangerous for dogs, is it true?
@@mohitsingh5665 Yes
@@cnoodle7650 How's your dog doing.... do this oil works?
@@mohitsingh5665 She’s doing great. Hungry all the time now. Just has the munchies. Lol
Great
You are lucky- lost one to give lymphoma and now one is end stage from cutaneous lymphoma. Cancer sucks.
How is Sadie today? Our almost 13 year old dog was diagnosed in November but is still going strong in late January. I am hoping she has T-Zone type lymphoma. I didn't expect her to be doing so well at this point. I am not sure at her age if they will excise the lymph node. I feel recently it is smaller however. Hoping for the best
You can modify the sleeping but you can't fix the garage fit.
We have the 320s BD. The stove issue. There is usually a glass top on that but looks like taken out. Can use as counter. We have a special flat cover on top of glass. We do not cook much inside. The bed we find if you open the cabinet in back it gives you not such a closed feeling. Some have taken them out. We can also sleep wheel to wheel. But yes still working on finding the best most comfortable way. All them light issues can be solved. We are in total blackness. Radio light can shut off. We use a power strip in outlet for microwave. You can keep it off or just pull plug. There is a switch you can get that you can hook to back of tv and then you can turn that blue light off. The compartment in the very back. Took off that one piece door and custom made three separate doors. Did not put them on hinges. Just finger lift them. Or just don’t have a door and use little baskets. I agree with garage issue. I think you have two kids. In that case I would look at the 400. We like the ability to make twin beds also with the 320. We also have other brackets to locate lagun table in different spots but it can also hook up outside. Made another table top for that. The BD version also gives you places to set stuff.
Ps… the light on thermostat can turn off also.
I bought the bins from your Amazon link to go in my 2022 NuCamp T@g XL microwave & they are too big. ☹️
Thanks for the video. We just bought a 2018 TAG that was never used. Ready to figure out how to doing this in the winter and gear up to see if it it for us next Spring. Looking for some great close locations to explore.
Thank you for this video, I still have a hope. Just waiting back the diagnosis but Im devastated the fear is bad but Im trying to stay strong for my precious Trinity (my Staffordshire bullterrier) Im so happy that your lovely Sadie is a survivor , bless her heart Xx
My dog had a history of benign MCT's and had an allergy to wheat and gluten. When I took him to the vets January 2022 because his skin flared up on his back paws, the vet prescribed Apoquel. After Two years of this lump/tumor growing on his tummy, it took only weeks for it to grow to a point where it affected his ability to walk. He had an operation to remove it and it was successful. The vets picked up that his lymph nodes in his thighs were raised but didn't suggest any type of treatment for him. Within a couple of months he died of lymphoma. Now the vets are saying it wasn't lymphoma but that the tumor, (two yrs benign) had spread and that's what killed him. Either way, giving him Apoquel is what caused the problem. I hope your dog is still going strong.
Bless u all. Glad she's still going
How did the Tab 320 pull compared to the Tag? Have you looked at the Tab 400?
you have good hint thank you. I like little guys I have a mini. i feel compliable what your group has more to offer Us
Damn, I thought there was something in this video that would help my dog. But nothing but rubbing it in my face that my dog is still going to die soon.
Hi and search some videos where natural remedy proven to help in lymphoma
