My dog, Bo, is around 11 years old (adopted, 3.5 years ago), a st. bernard/husky mix, about 100 lb.
He was recently diagnosed w/ lymphoma, probably stage 3. Comprehensive chemotherapy really isn't much of an option for us. So, prednisone alone was an option, and prednisone along w/ another med (a type of chemo) was an option as well, but obviously considerably more expensive, and I am moving in a couple of weeks, so somewhat unmanageable (that's not to say that I won't do it...just considering options).
Bo isn't showing any signs or symptoms, aside from the swollen lymph nodes.
I'm basically looking for any and all suggestions short of chemo that maybe the vet left out.
I'm also looking for any stories, good or bad, that people have that will help me be aware and help increase his time and improve the quality of his last days, whether it's a month or 2 years.
That is all, thanks for the replies.

I live in New England where it doesn't normally get that hot, but this year it's already in the 90's and its only May. I need to keep the rooms upstairs cool without use of an air conditioner. Every room has a fan and we have coverered up all the windows with dark fabric to try to keep the cool air in. But its still HOT. Any ideas?

Especially if you were gareenteed an immidiate decrease in your current bills by having the rent lower then the costs of grid power where you are by 10 or 20 percent? Especially if it was hassle free? Would you do other green upgrades to your house or business if it lead to lower monthly bills like this? Should companies sell there products like this, sort of like car dealerships?

I had posted earlier about my state tax payment for 06 not being cashed yet. I received and email that said they had a backlog in opening returns and checks at the time of filing I sent my check on the 16th of April). The customer rep said " As of today, our records do indicate your payment being received. However,
we are experiencing a backlog in opening returns and checks mailed around
the time of the filing deadline. I would not be concerned at this time
that your check has not cleared your bank. It is recommended that you wait
a few more weeks before taking any further action."

I used a reputable accountant and I trust what she did and I know that I have proof for everything that was wrote off.

I am wondering how many people out there are experiencing their checks not being sent to the bank yet? Should I be concerned?

Placebo is such a great name for a band. In case you didn't know placebo was a 'medicine' that doctors used to give patients when there was nothing really wrong with them, just to make them feel like something was being done.

A militant Islamic group in Iraq recently issued a fatwa, or religious edict, to the Assyrian Christian residents of the Baghdad suburb of Dora: Convert to Islam within 24 hours, or face death. At the same time, Muslim neighbors were instructed, over the loudspeakers of local mosques, to confiscate the property of Christians and enforce the edict.

Meanwhile, christian and Jewish American soldiers stand by and do nothing. Just like they've been ORDERED to do. bush is no christian, he is a bought and paid for puppet for the saudi arabian empire, and this entire war has been for their benefit.

Cause in the past Prophets had many wives and now only Muslims have this great favor !!

God took this away from the Christians.


Deut. 21:15 If a man have two wives, one beloved, and another hated, and they have born him children, both the beloved and the hated; and if the firstborn son be hers that was hated:
Deut. 21:16 Then it shall be, when he maketh his sons to inherit that which he hath, that he may not make the son of the beloved firstborn before the son of the hated, which is indeed the firstborn:
Deut. 21:17 But he shall acknowledge the son of the hated for the firstborn, by giving him a DOUBLE portion of all that he hath: for he is the beginning of his strength; the right of the firstborn is his.

Smoking is just as harmful as any other drug. Why do we continue to allow it? It no only is harmful to do but it harms the people around you....

If you two men were put in front of you, and they looked equally good but the only difference between them was that one is black and one is white. Which guy would you pick if you were a white woman or black woman? It's ok if you pick someone of your race. it's not being racist. It's just your preference.

Which one would you be more attracted to?

My lawyer who was working and was hired by my POA whose powers have since been revoked,is now asking to verify authenticy of my emails to him (the lawyer). ie. he wants to know whether I, his client, is actually writing the emails to him. What are the laws governing the authenticity of emails and their acceptibility in the Indian courts for any pending cases?

This is a serious matter and would like to get replies from those who know and can cite laws pertaining to the admissibility and authenticity of emails.

Thank you.

First let me state that I fully appreciate that the vast majority of Christians do not take Genesis literally and accept evolution as science. So this question is really for the bible literalists only.

1) Do you actually believe that ALL animals were orignally herbivores according to Genesis 1:30? Lions were eating grass? Tapeworms were sucking on mushrooms, mosquitoes were sipping nectar and sharks were munching on kelp? If so, why were they designed with sharp canine incisors and not the crushing grinding teeth found in cows and horses? What about their lack of a digestive system to deal with an all-veg diet? Why are their very design so well adapted to being the predators or blood suckers we know them to have been for millions of years?

2) Do you believe plants were created before there was sun for life-essential photosynthesis according to Genesis 1:11? This is especially for those who believe the "days" were actually ions of time?

Scientific answers appreciated.

I just need some opinions because I can't afford to get an autopsy from the vet. I just found him 20 minutes ago. Nothing was broken as far as I could tell and there were no bite marks. He had fresh bright blood trickling from his nose. He was still a little bit limber so I'm guessing he died maybe 3 to 4 hours ago. I don't think he was poisoned or that it was his food because he hsan't been acting funny and I know he wasn't hit by a car because he was inside the fence. If you can think of anyhting it might be let me know. He was only 3.

In most languages, especially in Spanish, when an "a" is added to the end of a name or anything else, it becomes femenine form. Do people know this? so is Allah a girl or a boy? I speak Spanish so everytime I think of Allah, I think of a girl..

My wife commited adutry and i had it all on tape. During our marriage she cheated 3 freaking times that i know about but i forgave the first two. We have 2 children. During the divorce i was strongly hurt. At first i had the kids (2 girls). But i couldn't trasport them to school and back and do the regular activities due to my job requires some travel and some long hours also it's in another town. So with this and her pleading i told her she could have them back. I mean girls should be with there mother right? Anyways, I have been pretty successful through my career due to my hard work ethics and strong determination to get them everything they need plus my spouse while she worked a minumal job making just over the min wage. I paid for her to go to school which she dropped out! Now i'm finding out that basically i'm in finacial ruin. Instead of living off of 3500 a month i'm now going to have to live off of 1200 a month. With this it may cost me my job since commuting is a daily task

The question "Should religion be banned because it is the cause of most wars?" gets asked a lot on this site. If religion was the cause of most wars, why do so many major wars in history seem to have no link to any religion?

Examples ,WW1, Vietnam, American War of Independance etc.
