Just brings up a blank page - so I hope whoever emailed me sees my response below! <br />-----------------------------------------------------------------------<br />Hi there! <br /> <br />Sorry, just not seeing this email. I don't check the site often anymore. With cancer in the mouth and nasal cavity, it will get really nasty with Neo BUT it can save your dogs life. I would encourage you to go out to the Neo website and take a look at the photos and read the stories of other dogs that have been treated with Neo for this type of cancer. The images are quite graphic, but it will prepare you for what you'll face if you chose to go this route. The dogs make a full recovery and while there will be some scars, the puppies don't care. ;) <br /> <br />It really is an amazing drug, but you have to follow the directions to the letter and you can't back off when things get nasty and they will with topical applications. If your vet decides to go oral, you probably won't see anything. Just don't make our mistake and make sure the does is high enough. Many vets not familiar with NEO with opt for the more "conservative" does and don't ever take your dog off. It's a life long treatment orally. That's why we lost our puppy. <br /> <br />If you decide to use it (and I would for stage 4 - there aren't many other options besides putting your pet down which is of course very humane) then be aggressive and see it through to the end. <br /> <br />Here's the link: http://www.buckmountainbotanicals.net/ Look under 1.) Relevant Neoplansene Documents - All are good to read, but Discussions and Case Studies will show you what you're up against and include the picture, so you can make a better decision. You're best bet if you don't want to read the entire document is to simply search for the related words, like "nasal." <br /> <br />Let me know if I can provide anything else for you.

I hope you still have time.

How frustrating. I found your blog post via a Google search for Neoplasene. My cat has oral squamous cell carcinoma and I heard about Neoplasene, but the vets at Univ of Tennessee will not help me with it. They act like it is quackery. Did the vet at U Penn facilitate your use of it? Could you possibly provide a name so that I can get the vet here to speak with a colleague? I feel I am running out of time and have not found a vet around here with any experience in this. Thanks ... and my condolences to you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4205860339639250755.post-32535524329849300972012-02-29T12:13:25.111-05:002012-02-29T12:13:25.111-05:00Jennifer, I am so sorry for your loss!

He had to be taken off his meds for 5 days. During this time his cancer took hold. He passed after a day of playing ball and swimming.<br />You and your family are in my prayers!<br />RIP sweet Indy!<br />JoanneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4205860339639250755.post-80364443474323997992012-02-28T12:25:12.773-05:002012-02-28T12:25:12.773-05:00Hello.

I lost my girl (also named Indiana Jones) to hemangiosarcoma. There was no option given to us regarding neoplasm, we were only offered surgery and chemo. We didn't have time for either; she was gone in 19 days. I'm glad you had a bit of extra time, and I'm glad so many have shared their stories so in the future we can all be better prepared should we once again face this illness. <br />My heart goes out to all who knew your Indy. ♥ingridhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04712353333013047156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4205860339639250755.post-59946655986410476602012-02-26T22:28:31.418-05:002012-02-26T22:28:31.418-05:00So very sorry you lost your guy.

I only wish I had known about the Neo treatment when my dog was sick...I didn't and we lost her quickly...almost as soon as we found out what she had...she was gone. I guess the only good thing is that now we know the right things to do.<br />RIP Indy.Cowgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18003194379100043721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4205860339639250755.post-87544789259191220542012-02-25T20:26:15.358-05:002012-02-25T20:26:15.358-05:00Thank you.

We just needed to be on a higher dose. The vet in Value told me this would happen if we didn't increase it. We tried to heed his warning, but the pancreatitus stopped us from being able to react fast enough. He was on just enough to be barely holding it off. He went from clear and clean to gone in 3 weeks! It's just so hard to believe. I really pray that someone learns from our story. We got some amazing photos and some great days and appreciated every extra moment we got and that was all possible because of you and Addis's journal. Thank you from the very bottom of our hearts for giving us the extra days. His quality of life was better in the last 7 months than it had been in the last 2 years. Worth every effort and every penny. Thank you again.Jennifer Indys Momhttp://indyandcaninecancer.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4205860339639250755.post-79418047957259067132012-02-25T14:54:07.384-05:002012-02-25T14:54:07.384-05:00I am so, so sorry to read today about Indy.

If there is a bright side - it is that it was working. That seems obvious. <br /><br />Please take comfort in knowing you did everything you could for Indy and gave him 7 additional months that he would not have had. 7 wonderful months.<br /><br />I know these time is difficult, but know you did everything you could.<br /><br />DeniceDenicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06501386569433149700noreply@blogger.com
