| Willow's
Story
In August of
2001, I went to pick Willow up from the vet where
she had been groomed. The vet tech said she had found
something that I needed to see the vet about before
I left with Willow. I was in a hurry and thought is
was nothing. I did stay and talk with the vet and
was told that Willow had a mass in a very bad area
and that we should biopsy it right away. On August
18 I got the news that Willow had a very aggressive
type of cancer. I took her to a surgeon that removed
as much of the mass as she could. She offered me no
hope and very little time with Willow.
The next few
days I was immobilized. Then I was a woman on a mission!
I learned about dog food and how to read a dog food
label. I contacted a doctor of Chinese Medicine and
she put Willow on three types of herbs. And I prayed.
I started making
the Liver Cookies of Love to coax her to eat. It also
helped me to feel like I was doing something loving
to help her. I have a doggy day care and started selling
the cookies to my clients. Soon they were encouraging
me to market my cookies.
I am happy to
report that as of March 25, 2008 Willow just turned
14 and is a six year cancer survivor. She still dances
for her cookies everyday.
