Wow....a change in course

Well Jack has been looking well overall. Just finicky with eating. He ate ok this morning but as the day went on my daughter noticed things that worried her. He was coughing, seemed a bit weak, wouldn't eat treats (which never happens!) and just seemed out of sorts. I decided to take him in just in case. Good thing I did....when I got there he had a fever of 104.5 and they were worried he had pneumonia. They did blood work and chest xrays. He was due to have his weekly blood work tomorrow so it was just a day early and he was due for a round of xrays next week so that was a week early. The xrays came back clear...no signs of pneumonia and no signs of new cancer!! yeah!! But by that time his temp was up to 105.3 and his WBC was at 1000, normal is 6-16 thousand! So he ended up having to spend the night where they were going to add Baytril antibiotics and give him fluids. I went to tell him good night and when I left (of course he wanted to go too!) he was wagging his tail, standing on his hind legs, whining :-(. I know it is better that he is there with them, but man it was hard to leave him. His oncologist will be in tomorrow and we will go from there. This really isn't unexpected but we were really hoping he'd continue to breeze thru this!!
