I agree with Jerry so much, you know Brandy better than anyone, and it looks like you have done your research and feel comfortable with your decision. You also have my support and positive thoughts for a speedy recovery and success with the wheel chair !

I, too wish only the best for a speedy healing for Brandy.
Comet - 1999 to 2011
She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.
My prayers are with Brandy and your family too. 4 years old is so young! Let us know as soon as she is out of surgery, I will be thinking and praying for you all tomorrow. We are with you and support you 100%!

Sadie is my 9yr old Rott/Shepherd mix. Diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her right scapula 1/28/10. Our brave girl had her amputation 2/13/10 and her last chemotherapy on 6/6/10. Unfortunately, a tumor appeared in her back right leg and on 10/7/2010 Sadie's earthly journey came to an end. On 10/24/2010 we adopted Ranger, a handsome Rott/Lab mix tripawd (got hit by a car) I think Sadie sent him to us.

I think the thing going for Brandy that most of us don't have is age. Brandy is very young, where the majority of our cancer victims are approaching their elderly years.
Sending tons of good thoughts for a successful surgery and a speedy recovery and adjustment period. You guys will definitely be in my thoughts.

Teresa,
So will Brandy have her two right limbs remaining?
Please check out my dog Fifty - facebook.com/bionicfifty
he's a 5, almost 6 year old pitbull with only his two left legs. He has no cart and gets along just fine (lost his legs 4 years ago).
He's in the process of learning how to use a prosthetic for his right rear amputation which was done just above the knee.
I hope watching his videos and seeing how well he gets along makes this easier for you too. You might not need the quad cart!!
Sincerely,
Kelly, another bi-pawd mama
WIll be thinking of Brandy.
Wishing her a speedy recovery, continuing doing things which she loves!
Cheers.
Hello everyone in Tripawd land,
Thank you again for all of your love and support,
Teresa, Brandy and the family
I'm so sorry you find yourself at this point in your journey with Brandy. Although no amount of time ever seems enough, try to find joy in the many months you have had, as well as those to come. Sometimes these most difficult days help us take the greatest pleasure in the smallest routines...those that help fill our hearts in the future.
Relish your time together, enjoy her and love her....that's all Brandy asks of you.

I didn't post earlier but just held hope in my heart for Brandy.
I am sorry to hear the decision was made for you!
Just keep loving her.... in the end it's really all any of us can do ....and continue making those close to your heart holding memories
And I will keep holding hope in my heart for her.
I am so sorry to hear this news. It is so hard to get to this point, but you have the right attitude. No one knows how long Brandy will have. That simply means you enjoy each moment you are given.
Sending good thoughts for Brandy in the days to come. Fight hard sweetheart.
