I haven't been here much but when I have been... I've been seeing a lot of Ted ... The banners bring me SO much joy! Those that I "knew" ... those that I never knew and of course, my beloved. ... always visiting & sending signs!
Shelby Lynne; Jack Russell/Shiba Inu mix. Proud member of the April Angels of 2014.
October 15, 2000 to April 8, 2014
Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife
Awww that's nice to hear Alison, thanks.

I love the banners too! We were all so connected through this journey, and so many of the dogs hold such as special place in my heart, even those that were angels before we joined.
Otis - 106 pound lab/Dane mix, lost his right front leg to osteosarcoma on Febuary 9, 2016. Four rounds of carboplatin completed in April, 2016. Lung mets August 25, 2016. Said goodbye too soon on September 4, 2016. Lost his adopted sister, Tess, suddenly on October 9, 2016. likely due to hemangiosarcoma.
Wherever they are, they are together.
I just got Ted!

Yes, the banners are a wonderful tribute to our babies, all of them, and Jim is amazing at keeping their true nature and spirit immortalised.
What you did with Miss Cow was really special I was truly touched by how you captured her goofy, playful spirit in just two shots.
Thank you 💗🐮✨💫🌟🌹💗
