Jill's Journey

As we begin 2014 I wanted to put together a special tribute to our tripawd heroes.  I know for me, Jill has shown me the true meaning of being brave this past year.  This was the original song I wanted to use for her one year ampuversary video, however, she wanted to show off her […]

Jill’s one-year Ampuversary is this Thursday, 12/12, which meant it was time for her one-year check up!  Off we went this morning in the snow to the Animal Medical Center.  She was her usual self, hugging everyone…and I was my usual self, nervous and anxious.  This was a big check-up!  It would be her last […]

Back in February, I began a mission to collect 1 postcard from each of the 50 states (https://jillsjourney.tripawds.com/2013/02/05/a-get-well-project-for-jill-help-us-reach-our-goal/) by Jill’s 1-year ampuversary (12/12/13). Well, WE DID IT! and more than one month ahead of schedule!  I cannot even begin to explain how humbled, honored and loved I felt for Jill everytime I went to the […]

Jill Here.  I’m a little bit confused.  Mom put these costooms on me last night but I know today is not an ampuversary or a birthday.  Sigh.  I did my best to cooperate.  She says its Halloween and I need to dress up or I don’t get my treats!  So Happy Halloween everypawdy!  Eat lots […]

Off we went today to see the fine folks at The Animal Medical Center.  Jill had her 6 month post chemo check up (for those of you who aren’t counting that’s 6 months post chemo, 9.5 months post amputation, 15 months post diagnosis) today which meant the dreaded chest X-Ray.  Yet again, Jill decided she […]

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 […]

We’re just about 6 months away from Jill’s one year ampuversary!  Which means we have just 6 months to go to get all our postcards in to complete Jill’s get well project!  To remind you about the project and where to send your postcards, please go to https://jillsjourney.tripawds.com/2013/02/05/a-get-well-project-for-jill-help-us-reach-our-goal/ We are still in need of postcards […]

Jill here.  First, my mom forgot to write me a blog post to celebrate my five month ampuversary.  Next. My brudder’s lack of decency and pride just keeps going down the gutter.   Oh the shame and horror of it all……I’m going back to bed.  

Jill here.  Mommy and I had a fun staring contest this morning.  It’s my favorite game to play!  She is getting pretty good at it though, so I had to come up with a new strategy this time.  Mom says I must be feeling not so tired from that chemo I had because I’m being […]
