WHHHOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOO!!!

Not really sure if there is anything that can better state our feeling on this ocassion. This is great news and a true song to our ears. We hope that the QUEEN will continue to push those life expectency numbers for the "November Five". Every time you and Trouble can celebrate, it lifts our hearts and should provide inspawration to the entire community. As Pat (Brody's mom) said, "Hang in there…whether it be days, weeks, months or years." Queen Nova is showing the way, even if she freightens the pudding out of mom.

Please take note of our earlier posting regarding what the chemotherapy may do to the immune system. Hopefully, we will get Pam (Tazzie) to comment on this. I always appreciate her viewpoint.

Seven days past the 16 month post-amp.  Perhaps this is just Nova's way of reminding you that you needed a 16 month PAWRTY? Regardless, we will be celebrating.

Love to all the family,

Spirit Cherry and Dad

Sue and Nova,

I just read through all the postings and at first I was alarmed… but was so happy to hear about the results! Yay for upper resp infections and a super clean lung x-ray!!!   There is definitely a great reason to celebrate!!! Hope you get a bit of time to pamper yourself now… and give that big, beautiful girl of yours a big kiss and hug from all of us!!!!

Sue–

I've been trying to keep up with story. I'm so happy to hear the latest. YAY!

Nova is incredibly awesome, she's on my hero list!

Congratulations with the good news!

I was at work yesterday when my wife read the news about Nova, so I found out via her text message.  I was incredibly relieved then, and after reading your post just now, I’m even more amazed.  The fact that this was a mere respiratory infection is already great news, but when combined with the fact that there’s still no sign of cancer after SIXTEEN MONTHS it's absolutely stunning! I hope you stuffed that dog chock full of buffalo last night, because she deserves it!  Speaking as proud parents of one of the November Five, Diane and I couldn’t be happier for you.  I don’t know how Nova managed to beat cancer so thoroughly so far, but there’s no doubt she’s an inspiration to everyone.

Who would have thought that a booger could be a sign of good news?
