Today is my little girl's TWO YEAR ampuversary. It feels surreal to type those words. I am so extremely proud of Jill and don't know how or why we are one of the lucky few, but she continues to amaze me everyday. (much more about all this on her blog!)
Please celebrate with your kitties and doggies today on Jill's behalf! Lots of treats and extra good nom noms as treats are Jill's favorite thing in the world (besides snuggling).
Thank you all to those who have been with us along this journey, we would NEVER have gotten through it without your support.
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.

Franklin, he was the Happiest Dog on Three Legs! Diagnosed 09/26/2012 with Osteosarcoma, amputated 12/4/2012. Had a wonderful 5 1/2 months painfree until he ran for the Bridge on 5/15/2013. Always in my heart, and always a guardian angel of my pack... You can follow his Tripawd Adventures, before and after, in my blog, Frank'n'Farter!
VERY happy news .... we always need good news but two years! Amaze-balls!!!! This is wonderful and thank you both for always being such a great support system for all of us here! We love you!

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
A VERY BIG CONGRATS SUPERGIRL Jill & Erica (and you too Jack!), this is a GREAT reason to pawty and a huge milestone for this community as well, we all jump and hop for joy right there with you!!! Osteosarcoma is a very scary disease and you guys handle it like the supeheroes you are!
