Tripawd Dane Nova and Sue

I can breathe a sigh of relief, for now anyway!  Nova's chest x-rays today went great, the doctor said there was no sign of anything in the lungs and the swelling in the neck turned out to be nothing. He said the panting is likely due to the heat, but it's certainly not from lung mets because there was nothing visible whatsoever.

Whew!  Next milestone is in 3 more months when they will repeat the x-rays.  I am hoping she can be like Tazzie and make it to 1 year (November 11).

We stopped at the park on the way home from the doctor to take some fun pictures:

Sorry, I can't figure out why the pictures don't appear.  I've done this before and it worked.

That is so weird. They don't appear on my screen, but if you can see them then that's fine!

YEAH! We are all breathing a sigh of relief, been thinking about you all day. This is wonderful news, and we hope it gives all the worried Tripawd pawrents out there the strength they need to think pawsitive and not focus too much on little things that worry them until they see a vet.

Wooo hoo!!!! You two look so hoppy. We fixed the photos for you. Did you remember to put them in using the Photo Editor tool?

Many hugs to you both.

Is the photo editor tool in the task bar above?  That's what I used.

Yes, the little photo button. When you pasted the URL in, did you paste the whole URL? The ones that were on the original post were abbreviated.

Sue and Nova,

Words cannot express our joy at your great news. We have been very concerned since we have not heard how Nova was doing for some time now.  We are on our way back from a four week long trip to Yellowstone where our WiFi was marginal to non-existent. We now have a good connection tonight at our RV site, logged on, and could not have had better news.  From my last viewing of your blog site, I know that things have been tough for Nova, so this new is even more precious for us.

We look forward to the next ampuversary with great anticipation remembering that Cherry is approximately one week behind Nova (November 19, 2008). When I get home, I will post a summary of Cherry's 7 month ampuversary in Yellowstone, and the bone cancer TriPawd parked just next to us at our RV Park. (Rear leg a month ago) What a small world!!!!

Again all the cheers, popped corks, and long distant hugs we can forward your way.  Your news really is the highlight of our day.

Bob & Cherry

PS: The photos are comming through and they look great!!!!! Not sure who looks the happiest, Sue or Nova, but it really does not matter.  You both deserve all the fullness of happiness possible.

YAY Nova!!  Awesome news.  I am jealous Winker  She looks so happy and stylish in her little harness!  Let us know how her panting is today since it's much cooler than it has been (about time, huh?)!
