Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to let you know I will be on the Radio Pet Lady Network tonight for her Monday night show with Dr. Sue Ettinger to talk about Jill's story. Jill recently won a photo contest that was sponsored by the Radio Pet Lady Network and she invited me on to talk about Jill's rare OSA case. The show will air at 8:30 East/5:30 West. You can listen live here:

Just click in the upper right hand corner where it says listen live. I'm not sure it works on all tablets - I have a hard time listening on my IPad.
Enjoy!
Erica
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.

Thanks! I wish we would have had longer to chat about why I didn't amputate right away and how OSA is treated differently in cats than in dogs but oh well!

Thanks Erica. This was very informative! What a pity you didn't get more air time...you did great though!!! 
SUPERSTARS!! We've got two SUPERSTARS in tripawd land!! We are sooooooo lucky to have such an articulate, well-informed human and an adoravle, loveavle, huggable, snuggable cat as the face of victory for tripawds everywhere!
I also, wish there had been more dialogue withnyo and Dr. Ettnger and a little less verbage from the host. You realy made good points though.! Even when asked which toe it was, you kept your focus and stayed on track!
Thank you...AND Jill...for takng the time and energy something like this requires of you both. Just KNOW that it's making a difference. Just KNOW that someone is in the process right now of giving their dog or cat a second chance becaise of the hope Jill gives us all.
Sending you and Jill and extra dose of love and hugs tonight!
