I just saw this from a friend on fb...

FORT COLLINS - A penpal program through Children's Hospital Colorado is making sure kids are not alone in the fight against cancer.

In honor of Pet Cancer Awareness Month, Colorado State University is pairing pet cancer patients with kids battling cancer through a pen-pal program called Youth and Pet Survivors.

Cool idea!

Adelaide is a young tripawd Husky, from an injury.  Her amp was on 10/1/12.  She has 4 sisters, Aissa (a senior border collie/chow), Maggie May (a puppy Great Pyrenees), Mathilde and Morrigan and 1 baby brother, Bagheera.  We are all watched over by our angel Brendol, who was dx with OSA 1/30/13, amp on 2/6/13, and left us on 8/20/13.

That's so cool, thanks Karma! Yes, YAPS is a terrific group. We have a member who belongs to that organization, we can't say enough good things about it.

This is a wonderful idea I sent them an email I would love to have Jill participate!!!

Jill is a 9-year-old tuxedo kitty. She was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma in June 2012 on her toe in her right hind leg. Her leg was amputated on 12/12/12 and she completed four rounds of chemo (2 of Carbo, 2 of Doxy) in April 2013.
