Oh, I am not sure what to do!! Just brought Hubby home fro hospital yesterday afternoon. An infection, nothing contagious, in case I DO come. He says I should go, I am concerned about being 3 hours+ from home. He s improving I just have to play nurse every AM with I V antibiotics for 2 more weeks. Hey, I have experience right? I just keep going back and forth, I really want to go. Just not sure I should. Ugggg!
TY GUY, Best Black Lab ever! Diagnosed and had amp in January, 2014. Kicked MRSA's butt. Earned his angel wings on April 16, 2014. Run Free my boy and don't forget a shoe. Ty is a proud member of the " April Angels". Ty sent us Daryl, a Tripawd rescue in Sept. of 2016. Daryl is 5 +or -. We are also Pawrents to Chandler, a Border Collie mix who is 15 and 1/2, Lucy, a Corgi who is 7, 2 minis, 2 horses, and a feisty cat named Zoe. Zoe had a non skeletal Osteosarcoma removed in July 2015. No Chemo, she was at least 16. She is going strong although she is now completely blind. She is now close to 20 and her hobbies are eating and sleeping in front of her personal heater.

We missed the start but we'll be there tomorrow afternoon. We'll get to the hotel late tonight, probably around midnight.
I do need to warn everyone. Nixon may look a little scary to you because he still has ascites as his liver is still not quite right and he is painfully thin. He's under medical care and he is not in any pain that we are aware of BUT his is extremely out of shape as he went from bed rest to gaining 12 lbs almost overnight and had a tough time with muscle wasting for a few weeks. He is also going to be 12 in August and he is actually in better shape than many 10 year old greyhounds we know. In case he does get over stimulated and refuses to lay down, my husband will take him back to the room to rest.

Here is Admin guy helping Sally with her "tavlet". We were all witnesses when he said that it wasn't HER afterall 🙂 I wanted to post this so all who were not there, and won't be there today, can see how big and adorable Myrtle is. Can't wait to see everyone else today too....Bonnie, Cheryl, Lori (we hope you can make it) and Ingrid!! OH AND, Zepplin is home with Rachel and Ariel! Hopefully she'll post some pics soon. If there is any reason to miss the tripawd party, it's to adopt another tripawd 🙂

Looks like everyone was having a great time. 🙂 I am glad that Jim said it wasn't Sally and it really was her tablet. Sally has really been ready to pull her hair out
