Laurie,

Your book is fabulous. I would recommend it to anyone for any reason, not just because their dog has cancer. There is a wonderful story in there of the love & care you gave Bullet. You two had an amazing relationship that is worth reading about. I'm so glad you shared it.

While we had intended to try chemo with Toosox (primarily BECAUSE of your book!) her reaction to the prednisone really turned us against any treatment. She always was very sensitive to any drugs. We felt that ultimately the chemo would be too much for her.

Your information gave us the knowledge to make the decisions we had to make.

Kim and Toosox
