I'm so sorry to hear about your Westie's cancer. Our Golden/Brittany mix got that and we also opted for chemo. If I'd have known then what I know now...check to see if you have a holistic vet in the area. You might want to consider acupuncture, chiropractic and/or Chinese herbs to help with the nausea and not-wanting-to-eat issues that come with the chemotherapy treatments.

Our English Shepherd, Gypsy, developed liver disease, and with the acupuncture/chiropractic/Chinese herbs we were able to keep her 22 months longer than our traditional vets expected.

LSAggie thank you for letting me know about the holistic option. My husband just wants to work with the chemo route. I wonder if she will make it until the start of the chemo. Tonight she is just not herself at all. Scared and sad.
