Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife

ANONE HAVE AN OVER ABUNDANCE OF FREE AIRLINE MILES???

We have a couple of out of state beloved members who are trying to figure out how to fly here.

I saw something in the news about "free passes" (and leggings 🙂 and it came to me that POSSIBLY there may be some air miles floating around out that that could be donated.:-) 🙂 O someone who know someone who works at an airline who knows how to get "free passes".

I have no idea how that woukd work, but just thought I'd throw it out into our "collective consciousness"

EEEEEPPPPPIIIIICCCCC 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

Wanda wa ted some information on the Tribute Leash that Karen started. This link pretty much contains everything. This will be a great FYI for a yone who wants to add a ribbon

The ribbons can also be for any dog or cat currently in this journey. Whenever they do transition ( a hundred years from now!), Karen ties a lovely white ribbon on top of the other ribbon to acknowledge they've become Angels.

Karen has thought of everything in her Tribute box she's ki d enoigh to send for our Pawty. It will jave ribbons, scissors, rulers, colored pens to write kn the ribbon, little stick ons, etc .

So bring any special things to attach to the ribbon. I attached little plastic M&M guys to Happy Hannah. Kathi attached a plastic green bean to Murphy's. Anyway, you get the idea!

Karen, feel free to elavorate, or add any additional links, etc! 🙂 🙂 🙂

AND WANDA!!! YOU'RE BRINGING JOE, RIGHT?? AND THE, CROWD ROARS.....PLEEEASE!!! 🙂

Sally, I think you covered it all on the Leash!

For anyone not able to attend the Party of The Century you can send me a ribbon and it will be added to the Leash before it makes it's way east for the party.  I would want to have it by the first week or so of May.
