Anticancer Diary of Soybean 2: Chemotherapy Effect and Second Chemotherapy
5.31 Tuesday 3rd day after first chemo
The overall state of mental appetite is good, and I slept all day during the day.
But I found that she always likes to lie on the tile next to the litter box when she has nothing to do. Does she want to squat at any time? Sure enough, after a while, I went to the toilet and pulled a little blood.
I played with her for a while at night, and my interest was not as high as before.
6.2 I can finally leave the community on Thursday
Doudou didn't have any blood in the stool yesterday or today. I pray that the next chemotherapy will be as effective.
Sleeping a lot is good, but eating less, I don’t know if it’s a picky eater or a bad appetite. She often eats what she wants to eat every time she meows, and she only eats a few bites when she is given. She can only change canned freeze-dried meat for her to eat. I don't like it much if I eat it again for the second meal.
It is very difficult to change the eating habits. I originally planned to feed them three meals at a time, but Doudou always doesn’t eat it when it’s sitting, and eats a few mouthfuls every two or three hours. Occasionally leave it there for her to eat freely.
Regarding taking medicine, she is too smart to feed her. At first, she wrapped it in cat jump wraps and let her eat it by herself. After two days, she stopped eating the cat strips I fed. Then I started to grab the medicine feeder directly by the neck, cover her mouth after punching it in, and let her swallow it, but sometimes she struggled so hard that we couldn't catch it, so she turned her head and started spitting up the medicine, which is probably very strong. bitter. Sometimes she would pretend to keep her mouth shut and we thought she swallowed it and let it go and then spit it out. I tried to give her some water to swallow before I finished the medicine, but I found out that it didn't work at all. In the past two days, I learned to use cat strips to wrap the medicine in it, and then I force-feed some cat strips after scratching her throat, so that she won't feel too bitter when she sticks out her tongue after eating. However, it is not always successful. Today, Doudou has suffered, and after feeding it twice, she still spit out white foam.
6.3 Conditions continued to improve on Friday
Today, Doudou's little friends are in very good condition. Last night, they were normal💩💩. After not eating cat food, it only happens once every three or four days. 🤣
After talking about what to eat, I changed to a new brand of canned food today, and I always like to eat the new canned Doudou. A total of about 110g of canned food and a small half bowl of freeze-dried food were eaten today. The spirit is very good, and she has been asking me to play with her. It's like a healthy cat, so I always fantasize from time to time that she doesn't have this terrible disease.
I watched the video on feeding cats on the helpful Vancouver vet channel today. Our previous operation was right, maybe we just need to slowly get Doudou used to it, and then we need to be more proficient.
6.4 Saturday overcast
It was very difficult to feed the medicine today. I ate a few pieces of raw beef in the morning, and the beef was accidentally cooked at night. In the end, they were all eaten by Xu drinking water.
I gave the medicine at night, and it took three more feedings to succeed.
In the middle, Doudou pretended to swallow it, and we spit it out again as soon as we let go. Fortunately, the third time it was successful, and she went to eat after feeding, which did not affect her appetite.
It's really strange that Doudou 💩 twice in the evening, each time there is only a small piece. The second time, he kept calling us, but I didn't feel uncomfortable, and the speed was quite fast, but the cake was dry and hard. Consult a doctor tomorrow.
The weather is hot and I start to lie on the floor and eat the fan wind >.<
6.5 Sunday
The canned food that Doudou likes, Xu drinking water will do the action of burying the cake, the taste of the two cubs is really much different. Today, the medicine was successfully fed twice. Doudouzai found that now she will satisfy her every time she calls us, and now she calls more 🤣
I pulled another piece of Baba around 11 o'clock in the middle of the night. It seems that I have adapted to eating canned food recently, and there are more Baba.
But why have I slept in my dad's room for the past two days, not next to my pillow😭
I really like to lick fans, and I don't know why. I'm going to go for chemotherapy ➕ check up tomorrow, I'm a little anxious.
6.6 Monday morning chemotherapy No.2
When I woke up in the morning, Xu drinking water was already anxious to eat, so I put rice for the two of them, and Doudou ate a small half can of about 30g. Then off to the hospital for a second chemotherapy. The doctor said that the tumor has become smaller, the blood test data is ok, and the leukocytes will continue to be transfused. Hope it will continue to work. Come on, Beanie!
Originally, Doudou was not so nervous, but there was a puppy in the hospital's inpatient area that kept barking, and now she was meowing again, and she was very anxious and pitiful. Feedback to the staff, I don't know what happened to the puppy.
After ten minutes of calling, it finally stopped. Now I can only hear the sound of the hospital machine running. I am really sensitive to noise. Doudou's hearing is so much better than me. It must be more troublesome.
6.6 Monday night
After staying in the hospital for 3 hours, I finally came back. Doudou was very nervous due to various noises and unfamiliar environments in the hospital. After opening the cat bar, I kept smelling it but didn't eat it, so I gave the super small poor stray cat that the uncle next door rescued. Doudou shouldn't blame me for being so kind. During the period, I also saw a pet family who came to send a pennant to our doctor, haha, thank you for the old furry child during the epidemic. very nice.
In the middle of the infusion, Doudou also relaxed a little, and was kicked by the old father. However, it is still very nervous when there is a noise or the barking of cats and dogs. Fortunately, he immediately relaxed after returning, inspected the house, said hello to Xu Dishhui, and went to rest.
The old mother's knees are getting worse recently. She can't take Doudou to chemotherapy on a bicycle. She went out in the evening to get a small electric donkey. Afterwards, Doudou can be a small electric donkey and go out. It should be more comfortable than walking.
I put the medicine in an empty capsule at night. I don’t know if it’s luck or if the capsule really makes such a big difference. Ah, I regret not using it earlier. Doudou swallowed it before she could react. She didn't spit out like before, and she didn't taste the bitter taste. She felt that she was also confused, eh, why is it different from the previous two days. 🤣
The cyclophosphamide I used today was given anti-emetic injections and liver-protecting drugs. Hope it's as useful as last week. Come on Beanie!
The old mother no longer wants to defeat cancer. I hope that cancer will be merciful, give you more comfortable and happy time, and let us spend more time with each other!
6.7 Naughty day on Tuesday
I was chasing the drama in the middle of the night last night and forgot to write Doudou's diary. Make up.
Yesterday was a rare naughty day. After climbing the closet, I was afraid of the shoe cabinet. Doudou has always had a soft spot for the smell of shoes. She often likes to hug our shoes and roll around, but she usually doesn’t smell too much. It’s not clean. , but recently she has been rummaging through the shoe cabinet in the middle of the night. In fact, the shoes in the cabinet are also kept in the box. I opened it today and let her go in and explore a few times.
There is too little vertical space in the home, so occasionally let them go to the top wardrobe to take a look. Xu drinking water is so good that he can jump onto the 1.8-high wardrobe by himself. Soybean can only meow and wait for me to hug, and when he comes, he will also wait for me to take it down. Trust me every time you hug me. ❤️
Yesterday, the feeding of the medicine was still very smooth. It seems that the feeding of the medicine in the empty capsule is really smooth. It is recommended for parents who need to give medicine to try it.
I didn't eat too much yesterday, and I don't really like newly opened canned food. Every time I took out the chicken breast, I ate it twice and spit it out. I don't really understand it. I remember eating meat before and she liked to play with meat as a toy, and was trained. I used to like freeze-dried the most, and I don't like it very much these two days. Doudouer has been a bit picky eater recently. Fortunately, the cans I bought are coming one after another, so I can take turns eating them with new flavors. ✌
During chemotherapy, I always hope that Doudou can cheer up, respond to chemotherapy, and make the tumor smaller. But think about it, it’s okay to not work hard, as long as the tumor doesn’t grow any more, it will be nice to be able to live happily, happily, and mischievously in the future like now.
Like my work? Don't forget to support and clap, let me know that you are with me on the road of creation. Keep this enthusiasm together!
