Thank you everyone! We changed Sky's appointment and are going to the oncologist in the morning. Please keep Sky in your thoughts.

Well we went to the oncologist today and after an ultrasound and aspirating Sky's lymphnodes we decided to try chemotherapy. The ultrasound looked good and the oncologist thought the lymphnodes looked clear. We sent that out for a biopsy and will know more next week.

The treatment consists of 4 treatments with an injectable chemo drug and a decreasing dose of prednisone. After that a new oral drug Palladia for up to six months. We could not do radiation because of the tumor was under the tip of her tongue. If we did nothing the tumor would grow back in 2-3 months.

Sky has a lot of life in her and we wanted to give her the best chance. I pray we made the right decision. The oncologist agrees that we can stop treatment if her quality of life decreases. Please keep Sky in your thoughts and prayers.

We will keep Sky in our prayers. Hope that the chemo works and you have lots of quality time left with her.
