Sammy became a tripawd at the age of 11. I was a poor college student at the time and so scared for his osteosarcoma diagnosis. The Tripawds Foundation really helped me though the decision to amputate. It was the best decision I ever made!
I got to keep my best friend around, cancer-free for four extra years. He passed away peacefully at a month shy of his 15th birthday, one year ago today (April 23).
In his memory I am donating $60.00 – the cost of his adoption from the city pound where I found him at age six. He was my best friend, my protector, my adventure buddy.
I love you Sammy. You are so so missed. I know you are waiting for me just around the trail bend.
This is sich a beauiful way tompay tribute to your precious Sammy. And love his photos too. The photo of him. Aammy stood so proud on that stump with his smile and adorable ways the ears were “standing”. You picked perfect memories to share.
