I would love to post a video and some pics of Millie's recovery....

What a greyt update, thanks! laugh

In the forum post editor, you will notice a few small icons in the tool bar for managing photos and videos:

One with a small tree, use this one to add photos to your forum posts. If necessary follow these instructions for adding images to forum posts.

The Insert Embedded Media icon, with the small filmstrip, or the small HTML button can both be used to add a video here that has been uploaded to YouTube or other online video sharing site. Here are the step by step instructions for adding videos to forum posts.

The easiest way to share photos and videos with the Tripawds community is to post them in Millie's blog. There, you can add viseos to forums posts just by pasting a YouTube view page url on a line by itself, and you can upload photos directly to your Media Library. See the Help videos for detailed how-to tutorials.

Hope this helps!

WooHoo for good updates.  It is amazing that you get to this point and reflect back and think that maybe without this decision they wouldn't have made it this far.  It is really humbling.  Keep up the great work, Millie!

Can't wait to see those pictures.  Love the gracefulness of a greyhound.

Finally got round to working out how to post photos. This is Millie, one week short of 3 months post op. She is doing so well and is just back from her first vacation of the year. Her fur has all but grown back and it now looks as if she never had 4 legs. 4th round of chemo tomorrow, so still a long way to go and important to not lose sight that it is still one day at a time.

best regards to all

Yipee! Another fantastic update from Millie!

So let's see, that makes it about four months since her surgery...and she's doing great!!! Love those pics, thanks for sharing. It's so nice to see/hear the pack is returning to normal.

Thank you for continuing to share her story and giving hope to so many others. We send our best wishes for an uneventful chemo session tomorrow. Let us know how it goes.

Hi, this is Millie's 3 month post op photo, taken on Millie's lawn, This is a plastic lawn, thanks to Millie, who in her 4 legged days  turned the real lawn into a mud bath. A happy day, helped by an appearance of the Sun, a very rare occurence in England.

I wanted to share our latest picture of Millie - one day after her #5 chemo session and nearly 6 months on from her first symptoms of osteosarcoma. She has made it through to Spring, something unimaginable 4 months ago.
