I am amazed at how well my boy Marley is doing after 7 days! He is so happy and has made SO SO SO much progress! I was so upset and emotional just a few days ago and would hide from him in my room to cry, now it's like a switch came on and he is almost back to him old self... It makes me very happy to report that he is getting around very well and he is getting quicker everyday! Thank you all for your support! I couldn't have made it through without you... I can't wait to share my story with others when they are need to let them know that it really will be ALRIGHT big-grin

YAAAAAAAAAY!!!!! WE LOOOOVE UPDATES LIKE THIS!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂

GOOD JOB MARLEY!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 GOOD JOB MOM!!! 🙂 It's sooo hard to be positive and confident during the initial rough part of recovery. The Surgeons just really aren't avle to prepare us for those first several looong days and sleepless nights. It's so scary!! Having the support of others who have been through it really is invaluble.

You've gotten through the most stressful part of this recovery journey and you did it with flying colors! 🙂 🙂 Hope you are avle ro catch up on some sleep now!

Now, the next victory we need to celebrate is you posting pictures of this cutie pie!! 🙂

Your post made my day!!! 🙂 🙂

Lots of hugs!! 🙂

Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle and Frankie too!

Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!

And he will keep getting better!  So glad you have made it through the hard part.

Otis - 106 pound lab/Dane mix, lost his right front leg to osteosarcoma on Febuary 9, 2016.  Four rounds of carboplatin completed in April, 2016.  Lung mets August 25, 2016.  Said goodbye too soon on September 4, 2016.   Lost his adopted sister, Tess, suddenly on October 9, 2016. likely due to hemangiosarcoma.  

Wherever they are, they are together.

Isn't it wonderful when they turn the corner? It just makes all that anxiety and doubt go away. Keep up the good work!

Kathi and the Turbotail April Angel...and the Labradork

Murphy is a five year old Lab/Chessie cross. He was hit by a car on 10/29/12 and became a Tripawd on 11/24/12. On 2/5/13, he had a total hip replacement on his remaining back leg. He has absolutely no idea that he has only three legs!

UPDATE: Murphy lived his life to the fullest, right up until an aggressive bone lesion took him across the Rainbow Bridge on April 9, 2015 and he gained his membership in the April Angels. Run free, my love. You deserve it!
