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

Merry Myrtle is so precious! She is bright and cheery, and seems to love Santa! This costume is not quite as adorable as her Halloween costume of Raggedy Ann, but she is still the prettiest doggy Santa helper ever!! <3
Sally, I do hope your day was happy and M Myrtle was spoiled even more, and that Happy Hannah's eternal guiding light was with you today.......
Much Love,
Bonnie, Angel Polly, and sweet Pearl

Love the pics!!! Merry Christmas, Sally!! Sending our love to you & Merry Myrtle.
Love,
Joan and Lily
Our beautiful Lily was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her front leg on 12/14/11 at age 8 and had amp on 12/16/11. She completed 5 rounds of carbo. She was so brave and kicked cancer's butt daily! She lived life fully for 4 years, 3 months, and 15 days after her amp. My angel is a warrior princess. I miss her so much.
