IT'S GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just got the call from Dr. Siva at Colorado State and he told me that he got 7mm clean edges. The cancer is GONE!!!!!!!!!

We'll be going in this Wednesday for the stitches to come out and to get a check up and then we go every three months for check ups and every six months for a chest x-ray and after two years of that, we can hopefully still be tumor and cancer free!

Dr. Siva is an angel and he saved my sweet Kelsey from that awful disease. I can't tell you how good it feels to finally be able to take a breath again! It's been a long two months (worst two of my life).

Finally, we're healthy and Kelsey is a true cancer survivor. I'm very proud of him and I draw strength from how strong he is. He's been through a lot and he's still got the fight to survive in him.

Thank you all again. We'll deal with not having a tail as long as we still have him in our lives and can love him. I won't ever take another day for granted.

All my love to you all!

Cody and Kelsey and the rest of the gang

Saturday

Huroo everypup! Kelsey here, feeling better each day. Mommy finally let me use the computer since I'm feeling better.

Hey, did you notice that something is missing from behind me? I can't find it! I also feel a breeze back there. Wait, my fluff is missing!!!! The pain meds are gone and I'm back in the right frame of mind (whatever that means). I thought I was hawoooocinating before when I looked back there, but even without the pain stuffs, I see the same naked back end.


Anyroo, I am gonna go take a nap and wanted to say hi and let you all know I'm doing pretty good. Mom hasn't cried for a couple of days, so that's a good thing. I even spent some time outside on Thursday with her and dad while they swam. They haven't let me get back in my pool yet though. Mom says something about stitches so I guess I'll be patient and go in there next week if they get it out for me.

Hope you are all doing grrreat!

Hugs and drool,
Kel (seriously, if you see my fluffy tail can you send it back to me?)
