Tai is celebrating her 3 month ampuversary today with intermittent snoozing at my feet, which she is doing currently, and gopher (our prairie equivalent of a squirrel) chasing. I am so glad that she has battled the cancer long enough to see the emergence of spring. It was my first goal when we started down this road at Christmastime. She has been a huge source of inspiration to me and I love every minute that we get to spend together. Now if I could just get her coat to grow in evenly big-blink (she's missing blotches but I think that's thanks to the chemo).

Tai would like to let you know that she is getting extra treats (although not too many as she's trying to watch her waistline a bit) and loads of tummy rubs and ear scratches.

 

Tai – 9 yr old lab. Diagnosed Osteosarcoma Dec 18/09. Front right leg amputated Dec 21/09. Started chemo Jan 7/10. Lung mets discovered Sept 16/10. Valiant to the end on Oct 26/10 when cancer reappeared in a leg and we made the decision to set her free. Forever in my heart where not even cancer can take her from me.

Way to go Tai.  Three months is a great time, and chasing gopher in the springtime is just a great way to celebrate.  Here's wishing you many, many more!

Tai and family,

Every day you can be together is a day to celebrate, but reaching a milestone as great as three month ampuversary is a reason to PAWRTY! Very glad to see that you will be getting extra attention, a few treats, but for me I most appreciated the ICE CREAM. Spring will be full blown soon and you can chase the gophers. Hope that you have your Summer plans well in hand because you will be needing them sooner than you think.

Celebrating with you vicariously and looking forward to more of these great ampuversaries!
