Thank you so much!  If all goes well, I'm told we will bring her home the same day, wow!

 

Rugs in place....check.   Yummy, nutritious people food ready to cook....check.   Mom's nerves.....um....well...laughing  I will certainly keep everyone posted.  Thanks again!

 

 

Liberty (Libby) was diagnosed with OSA on 1-22-13.  Right front amputation on 1-31-13. No IV Chemo. Metronomic Therapy started 2-19-13 along with supplements and some home cooking. Lungs clear until 1-06-14.  She's still her happy, hoppy, bossy self.  Living the dog life to the fullest and a proud Winter Warrior. :) RIP my Libby 4-21-03 to 3-19-14

Hello,

Just new here,but read through your posts. I assume by now you had a sucsessful amp....fingers crossed! We are meeting with the surgeon on Monday to discuss amp for our 9 yo Golden Ret who has PAHS in his front elbow.  I look forward to hearing about your successes and likely lessons-learned.  This site has some wonderful inspiring, and helpful, stories to pick you up.

Best of luck! Stirling and Tahoe

Welcome Stirling & Tahoe!  Yes, please follow the link Jerry provided for Libby's story.  Also, if you'd like to read more about my Libby, click on her picture there and it will take you to my profile.  You can then click on a list of topics I've started to follow her journey from beginning to present.  By the way...Libby is 1/4 Chessy too.  I think her personality is 100% Chessy though. :)  I look forward to your updates as well.
