Just a quick shout out to my Rio-girl. Happy 5 months since your surgery! It's been an uphill battle at times. I know it hasn't always been easy for you, because it's been a struggle for me to watch you go through this. But you just keep getting back up, over and over again. You never give up, you never fail to smile, you never fail to interject a moment of silly into every day. You are my hero, you are my rock star!!!superstar

Thanks everypawdy! Five months and I'm feelin' fine! Well except I'm a little tired today. Momma said its cuz of the kemo. Whatever! Tomorrow, I'm gonna kick some booty! After my nap!

Monkeybutt-Bunny,
Just so you know, not only did Tosca have to have her neck shaved, momma shaved her butt, too. Something about T visiting the Bahamas and getting dreadlocks, I don't really know. But, talk about chicken legs!!!! Hahahahaha! Take that Monkeybutt!!!
