It was great fun but Wednesday’s birthday, Thursday’s one year ampuversary, and Friday’s two primary veterinary care provider’s party really tired me out.  I think that I should name Friday’s celebration as a “Get Out Of Jail” anniversary because it was a year since Mom and Dad brought me home following surgery.  They bailed me out of jail.  In the case of my oncologist and surgery staff (one facility), this was the first time that I had seen them since January, but we see our local vet regularly.  All were surprised when we showed up with a sheet cake but I am sure all enjoyed!  At least one ride each day, a trim session on the grooming table, lots of hugs, lots of treats, special foods, special toys, and a new TriPawd sweater.  Can a girl ever have too many sweaters?  We even went to Baskin and Robbins for a soft serve ice cream cone.  Dad spooned it out into a dish for me so that I did not make what he would call a mess.  Mom was in charge of photos so that means tons of photos.  Dad has posted a page detailing the activities, posting photos, and acknowledgements.  There is a special paragraph to this TriPawd community.  Please visit the Cherry’s Celebration Page.

Many times during each of these three days we paused for a quiet moment to give thanks, to ask Him to watch over our friends who, like me, are still on this journey, and hold very tightly all our friends who have crossed over the Rainbow Bridge to wait the day of joyous reunion when they will never be parted again.

PS: Dad also updated my Avatar – what ever that is.

Whoooo hooooo!  Wow, Cherry, you really know how to pawty.  Congratulations and a big sloppy Great Dane kiss from Nova on the PAWESOME occasion of your 1-Year Ampuversary. Let's keep doing our part to inspire other Tripawds and their pawrents and give them hope for the future.  It's been a pleasure being your pawpal for the past year and we look forward to another hoppy, healthy year ahead.

Bob, she's GORGEOUS!!!!!  What a beautiful dog, and what a happy dog as well. You must be so proud :)  I loved the pictures, especially the one of her at the top of the screen (with her hair pulled back) and the one of her lounging on the grooming table.  What a great, great celebration!!!
