Listening to Daisy

This was Daisy's first day back at agility practice since the stitches were put in 10 days ago (after a biopsy was taken for the "lymphoma vaccine" by Morphogenesis Inc.).  She walked off the agility course half way through....picked up her leash and put it next to her crate.....had she had enough?"  The trainer, Chris Septer suggested lowering the height of the poles because she felt Daisy was likely too hot and over exerting herself.  This solved the problem and Daisy enjoyed the next two runs after that :-)  I will continue to take Daisy to agility as long as it is enjoyable for her.

  

Daisy Learns to catch "Frisbees"

Daisy had to wait for her stitches to heal before she could resume her normal activities:  I took her to watch a DiscDog competition and it turns out she loves catching Frisbees!!

Daisy begins "Lymphoma vaccinations" by Morphogenesis Inc.

Daisy began her first day of the Morphogenesis treatment (lypmphoma Vaccine) today.  It is an experimental treatment however controlled studies reportedly will being at F.I.U. as per Dr. Pat Lawman Ph D and CEO of the company.  Daisy's oncologist Dr. Lurie sent a biopsy of Daisy's lymph node to the Morphogenesis company last week.  After irradiating the sample they then create a "lymphoma vaccine" which is then injected back into the dog (Daisy).   Daisy received her first dose today and will continue to get weekly doses over then next 8 weeks.   The vaccine supposedly  causes the cancer cells to be identified by the body's immune system which then allows the immune system to attack and get rid of the cancer cells.  I talked with Dr. Pat Lawman today and she said that I will likely see changes after several weeks or so.  Daisy's lymph nodes under her jaw area are enlarged and she has one behind her knee.  Daisy will continue to receive chemotherapy concurrently.  I continue to use the rife machine when needed/appropriate.  Daisy continues to love the Cornell University "cancer starving" diet.
Daisy I love you my baby :-)  

Daisy is on the Cornell University "Cancer Starving" Diet

I'm just now getting around to blogging about this. I started Daisy on the Cornell University Anti-Cancer diet...... well over a month ago.  She loves it!! The diet consists of about a dozen fruits and vegetables, brown rice, wild salmon, almonds, safflower oil and salmon oil.  Added to the diet are vitamins and supplements (zinc 250 mg, vitamin B12, caltrate 600 mg calcium, vitamin D). You can download the Cornell Diet in Pdf format at the bottom of the page.


Now...let's see how she likes it:

Daisy has a groovy time at "Woofstock"

Daisy my little philanthropist!

Daisy helped raise money with the Dog Scouts of America Troop 157 in the "Walk for the Animals" Broward County Humane Society fundraising event.  She had a blast too!  Thank you Louis & Ileana Lafontisee, Bill Geese, Nancy Dawson, Giovanna Fernandez, Nancy Portolesi, and Jenny Christobal and "anonymous."  The money goes directly to helping the homeless animals in the shelters.
