Can't post pictures because my computer is on the fritz and pictures don't work from an iPad. But I have 3 great cats and and a beloved cream colored Pomeranian named Sasha who turned a year old yesterday. The Pom in my avatar I miss so much- she was with us 14 years.
I love all the pictures and stories here- thanks for sharing!

During my six months of chemotherapy, I actually gained weight. I would be sick for days during/after, but would eat whatever made me happy once the nausea went away and I started to feel better. Plus the steroids mixed in with the chemo ****tail also kept the weight on. Here I was hoping to get through the process looking like Skeletor, and it didn't quite work out that way.
