I am so excited, I get to be a trucker dog again!!! My avatar picture is of the last time I got to go in my Dad's big rig. The trip was last summer after my diagnoses of cancer way before my surgery when my Dr. told my mom that I wasn't a candidate for surgery just take me home and enjoy the time I had left. This picture is very special to us, I am doing my second most favorite thing I am traveling, my first is eating! In my picture I am happy and the leg you see is the leg I eventually lost. That summer was a long painful time for me, twice I was taken home to spend one last week at home before that dreaded day. Now we know what made me so very sick was the anti fungals that I was on. Enough of remembering a time of such pain and sadness for all of us.
So anyway things are Great here today and come Monday morning if you are traveling anywhere in Arizona to central California look up as you pass a big rig and if you see a big black head sticking her head out the window with a smile as big as Texas on her face, Honk, it will be me YAY!!! On the road again!!!

Oh that is so exciting Tasha!! You can bet that we'll be looking for you with that big Texas smile on your face. Be sure to take lots of pictures. We want to see Tasha the Trucker on the road again! 
Kami (Mackenzie and Kobe's Mom)
My sweet golden Mackenzie. She became my angel on Dec 29, 2010 at the age of 8 1/2 although she was always my angel from the time we brought her home. She was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in Sept 2009 and officially became a tripawd (front leg) on Nov 5, 2009. She will be forever in my heart and now she's running free with all of our other tripawd heroes. I love you Mackenzie!

It really is uplifting isn't it! I'd love to see that happy face looking out that great big window.

Fun! You're sooo lucky!
Hey Tasha, maybe we'll meet up at a Flying J or Cracker Barrell sometime, that would be cool. Otherwise we'll see you in AZ this winter, for sure.
Have fun Trucker Tripawd!
