This is such great news, it's what we were hoping for. You sound so good, and so does Wookie, and for today, for this moment, that's all that matters. What a beautiful update.
This is what we mean by Being More Dog. Congratulations, you've graduated!

Hooray for Wookie feeling good!
Abby: Aug 1, 2009 – Jan 10, 2012. Our beautiful rescue pup lived LARGE with osteosarcoma for 15 months – half her way-too-short life. I think our "halflistic" approach (mixing traditional meds + supplements) helped her thrive. (PM me for details. I'm happy to help.) She had lung mets for over a year. They took her from us in the end, but they cannot take her spirit! She will live forever in our hearts. She loved the beach and giving kisses and going to In-N-Out for a Flying Dutchman. Tripawds blog, and a more detailed blog here. Please also check out my novel, What the Dog Ate. Now also in paperback! Purchase it at Amazon via Tripawds and help support Tripawds!
So glad that Wookie is feeling better. These are the moments to savour.
Karen and Spirit Magnum
Magnum: 30th May 2002 to 5th May 2012. Lost her back left leg to osteosarcoma on 5th Sep 2011. Lung mets found on 20th Mar 2012 but it was bone mets in the hip that ended her brave battle. Magnum's motto - "Dream as if you'll live for ever, live as if you'll die today" (James Dean). Loyal, loving, courageous and spirited to the end. My beloved heart dog, see her memoirs from Rainbow Bridge ...... http://princess.....pawds.com/
I love hearing he is feeling better and enjoying the park with his friends. Here's hoping you see many more happy days ahead.

I'm glad that Wookie is feeling better! I know that it is very hard not to try and do just one more thing to try and defeat the evil cancer. Do you have a holistic vet in your area? There is an herbal formula called Stasis Breaker than can help fight cancer in general and it might slow things down and has minimal if any side effects. I used it for my Pitt Kona when she had intestinal leiomyosarcoma and the metronomic chemo I was giving her wasn't working. I know that OSA is probably more aggressive and your boy is in a different situation but as a vet you can order it yourself. PM me if you need more info.
