It's been a while since I've posted a diary entry, but I wanted you all to know that I'm doing really well! In the 3 months since my last entry, my prenisone dosage is now down to just once a week! I take one prednisone pill on Tuesdays, and I still take my azathioprine on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I take the pill in some soft canned food that I think is just yummy! I want the food every day, even if I don't have to take any pills! Sometimes my daddy gives some to me, but I always get a cookie in the morning!

I'm so happy that my health continues to be good. The doctor is very pleased! In about six weeks, I'll go back for another set of blood tests. I don't like going to the doctor, but I always go like a good girl! If the next set of blood tests are good, then I won't have to take any more prednisone! That would be so wonderful!

The doctor says that I can stay on azathioprine for as long as I need. It seems to be doing what it should to keep me on the right track. I'm so glad for my wonderful doctors and helpers at the hospital. They have done such a great job taking care of me and making sure I was well!

Thanks to all my friends on Dogster for keeping up with me and wishing me good luck! You are wonderful!
