Awesome news Nat. I am so glad Desi is doing so well 
Hoppy Ampuversary Desi. I can't believe it has almost been 2 years since her amputation. Way to kick some major butt.

I am so sorry to hear that about Desi. I know she will be greeted by Sassy, Brendol, Happy Hannah and many others. She will be healthy & happy and waiting for you at the Bridge. I know this won't be easy and it will take awhile for the tears to stop and to smile again. She will be a guardian Angel over that new little of bundle of joy that will be joining this world soon.

Oh Nat, I'm so sad to hear this. She has come such a long way, it's sad to know that she's not doing well. Whatever way things go, I know that the love you and her Dad share for Desi will keep her comfortable and at peace right now, and through eternity. Please let us know if there's anything we can do to help OK?
All our love & strength is going out to you across the ocean. {{{{hugs}}}}

We've been with you and Destiny since the beginning of this journey and we're still right by your side, especially now.
She's quite a ROCK STAR around here and it's so inspiring to know that sweet little grey muzzled girl jas been able to live life to the fullest on tnree legs.
We certainly hope for the very best for Destiny. Hopefully there can be some things the vet can do to make her feel better. Regardless, you will do what's in Destiny's best interest...you always have, you always will.
Whenever her transition takes place, she will be surrounded by love and a celebration of a life well lived.
Give jer a kiss for us...and know that the whole community is wrapping you up in a group hug.

Destiny knows you love her and she knows you are always "with her"...just like she will always be with you. You are not saying good-bye...you are saying "til we meet again", because you will. We will all join up at the Rainbow Bridge.
And we will all be by your side, just like we have been for two years. It has been such a privilege to travel with you and Destiny on this journey. And what a great journey it has been! Destiny loved being loved by you!! You made her so happy when she could cuddle and snuggle with you!
Holding you in our hearts tonight...and always.
Love to you...

I am so sorry to read this about Destiny......She had a long and great life with you, but I know it still is never long enough. She was also definitely a cancer-kicking pup for sure.
She will leave this world to live over the Bridge, but she will always have you within her heart.
Thinking of you,
Bonnie, Angel Polly, Pearl, and Zuzu
