Day: September 16, 2011

yesterday was charon’s birthday – she dare not even think about september when the news of gayle’s melanoma diagnosis came last december.  but gayle is a warrior, and again, she sat by her charon’s feet, napping and having puppy dreams, as the tap, tap, tap of the needles celebrated the day.

tomorrow will be gayle’s 17th ampuversary – another blessing for us.  again, gayle just won’t let the numbers and percentages and statistics rule her destiny.  she remains happily living in the moment, enjoying the treats and naps that each day brings.

on sunday, we will walk in knoxville’s first morris animal foundation k9 cancer walk.  althought we haven’t quite met our goal, we have raised a lot of money to help MAF kick cancer’s butt.  this was made possible by our friends, who are also our blessings.  thanks you so much!!!!!  wonders never cease for us – this afternoon we received a donation from diane hollenbeck aka maximutt,which got us to our goal of raising $1000!!!  and the donations keep coming, we are now exceeding our goal – tripawds really, REALLY rock!!!!  definitely you are all angels!!!
