One year ago today, June 27, 2012, I was sitting in my office, nervously waiting for the vet to call to tell me whether Jill’s lungs were clear and if they could proceed with the toe amputation.  I did not know at that moment, it would be the first of many times during the next 12 […]

Filed under: Uncategorized — rica55 at 12:11 am on Thursday, June 20, 2013

It was one year ago tonight that I came home from work to find Jill finally out from under the bed after hiding there for two weeks.  It had been the first time my parent’s puppy Belle was visiting, so I figured she just wasn’t a fan (now we know different, as they love to […]

HAPPY SIX MONTH AMPUVERSARY JILL!

Wow.  6 months already?  How did that go by so fast!?  When I sit down to actually look back on the last 6 months, I really only see improvement after improvement and belly rubs and purring and kisses.  Not any recovery, CBC’s after CBC’s after CBC’s, x-rays, chemo, vein problems, peeing issues, supplements, metronomics.  And I […]

One of a Kind

Filed under: Uncategorized — rica55 at 4:00 pm on Monday, June 10, 2013

One year ago this month, I brought Jill to the vet for an “infection” on her toe.  Everything seemed to turn upside down, topsy turvy real fast from there.  While we’ve been on our tripawd journey for almost 6 months, it’s been almost a year (celebration to come in a few weeks) that we’ve been […]
