Thanks so much for thinking of us!  I had heard of this herb from the canine cancer yahoo group I belong to and many people there feel they've had success with it.  I do think I can find it here, Taos is a very herb-friendly place, like Madison I would think.  Thanks again for the information.

Beth,

So very happy for you that you and Tshuvah made it back home together.  Such wonderful news about your sister and baby.  What an amazing sister you must have. Congratulations on your niece – I'm sure she's just beautiful.  We will keep you all in our thoughts and prayers. smile

Kami (Mackenzie'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!

Beth, so glad you guys made it back. Don't these guys just amaze us. I know it is a bittersweet thing but I know how much it means to be home when that time comes. I agree with jakes mom about pictures, we could never get many "action" shots of Gus , he was so spontaneous that by the time you got the camera the event was way over, but I decided to buy a video camera about six weeks before he died and was able to get some video of Gus, and I will tell you that is priceless to me, it has helped me so much since he died, I just love to watch them, of course I wish I had more, but then we never imagined losing him that young. Cherish every hug, lick, wag, bark, poop on the carpet and anything else she does. Hope all goes well for your sister also, paws up, Spirit Gus and Dan 

My buddy Gus had a left front amputation on April 7, 2010 and lived a great life until July 26,2010

what an amazing story/journey….it is unreal that they can do   chemo on a fetus…just amazing and what a blessing to have a healthy new baby and hoping your sis makes it thru this next process and comes out cancer free.

 

I love the story of the kitty going along….when I would get Magic up to go outside before I opened up the pet door again, OJ would wake up, go out with us, sit on the patio while Magic did his thing, walk back in, up on the bed, back to sleep.  Until he died, OJ seemed to share a lot of Magic's time after the cancer diagnosis.  Casper was starting to do the same thing when Magic went downhill and they both seemed to know that play time was over.

A story whose ending hasn't been written yet!!!   I agree with Dan…these guys/gals just amaze us all the time

I, too, am glad to hear you are back home and also that things are going well for your sister and her baby.  If you haven't already done so you might want to consider making a plaster of paris cast of Tshuvah's pawprints.  The hospital did Emily's and I treasure them.  Build memories in your heart.
