8 1/2 Months... (Stanley Update)

8 1/2 months since Stanley was diagnosed with a brain swelling and put on a steroid to reduce the swelling. He is still going strong. No dizziness since February and we've been able to keep the pill at a reduced enough level to not affect his liver and sugar levels.



Just wanted to update everyone every few weeks on his progress...



I am heading to Norfolk for a work conference tomorrow thru Friday and it always makes me a little nervous leaving now that he is on strong meds, but I have a wonderful professional pet sitter who did a great job the end of August when I had to go away for a week. She keeps his schedule perfectly.



It will come back with a vengence when the steroids no longer work, but so far he is beating the odds. It is great he still has no symptoms.
