On 01.02.02, I was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. Too late for surgery, I had chemotherapy, which failed. In May the chemotherapy was changed and I was soon in remission which was celebrated and welcome and lasted nine years - until October 2011. There was progression in 2011 so more treatment was indicated and I am now back in partial remission. But I'm not only a cancer patient - I also enjoy my family, walk my dogs and am learning to draw and paint. Life is good!

Puppies here, puppies there, puppies everywhere!

One of my friends takes care of Buley, a breeder dog for Canine Companions for Independence, an agency that breeds and trains dogs to be service animals for the disabled (usually wheelchair, hearing disabled, autistic, etc.). Here's Buley:



Buley produced her first litter of ELEVEN pups about five weeks ago and I was invited to meet the puppies! They were calm until we approached and then the scene looked like this -- the picture of greedy puppy hunger:



So wonderful Buley nursed her babies, all eleven of them:




And then they received their mushed up kibble:



And then we held them:



And then they fell asleep, all eleven of them! End of story.....Awwwwwwww.
