July 19 would have been Xanadu’s 13th birthday. We lost him just over three months ago to bone cancer. I miss him so much, and have found that participating in Morris Animal Foundation’s K9 Cancer Walk helps to keep his memory alive. I joined the planning committee last year just after Xan’s diagnosis. This year, even though he is no longer with us, supporting this cause is just as important to me. I have Xan’s best friend, Zoey, to worry about and a month ago, we adopted Buster, a 11 month old Yellow Lab. I don’t want to face cancer with either of these dogs and I don’t want any other family to have to go through what our family went through with Xan’s diagnosis, amputation and eventual death.
I hope to raise $1,000 to support Morris’ Canine Cancer Campaign. You can help support my efforts by joining the team and walking virtually or making a donation of any size. Please visit our walk page at: http://tinyurl.com/xan2011.
Thank you.
