I had posted a couple of days ago and wanted to let you know that I
called my vet about chemo.  I live in the Harrisburg, PA area and he
stated that I would have to travel to Philly to have it done.  That
isn't going to be possible, especially since it isn't a one shot deal.
Also, he mentioned that it is VERY expensive and estimated that after
we were done it could be 3-4 THOUSAND dollars?  He also didn't seem
impressed with results he knows of from the past.  I am disappointed
but wanted to see if anyone had any advice or experiences they want to
share?  Thanks.
