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

Oh, it's just a southern thing. In high school when someone was mad or sad we would take our fingers and tickle under their chin to make them smile. This rhyme would make anyone cackle once you processed the thought.
In the photo it looked like Elly was serious and she needed her chin "tickled".
LOL!
