I met Fancy and Rocco at the Mary Elizabeth Miller Radiation Oncology Center (Dr. Au's office) in Leesburg, VA. Below are their proud Moms' stories. They are so loving!! (I think I'm going to sign Buddie up for training!)
"Fancy is certified by Therapy Dogs International (TDI). She also visits at the Morningside Assisted Living facility in Leesburg and the Nursing and Rehab section of the Leesburg Hospital. She and I have participated in obedience and agility classes with the Dulles Gateway Obedience Training Club (DGOTC). She enjoys outings in the country and fetching a tennis ball." Marion Lee
"Rocco tested for his American Kennel Club Canine Good Citizen at just 12 months old--which is very young. He is certified through Therapy Dog International and passed that test when he was just 14 months--again very young. Rocco was trained by me (I train dogs), so I'm very proud of him. Rocco continues with AKC obedience trials and is working on his Companion Dog certificate. Rocco works just at Loudoun on Tuesday afternoons. (We have been doing this since December 2009.) Anyone can become a friend of Rocco through Facebook by joining "Friends of Rocco". Annie Larson
And, now they are also models! You can find their cards under the Get Well section of my Doggy Greeting Cards on my website, www.kathykupka.com.

Pic of the Week - April 19, 2010
My brother says he enjoys getting my Pic of the Week because then he knows what day it is. Of course it's not Friday, I'm just late!
This week I thought I'd send you an image from my Cancer Patient Slide Show Presentation called "But There IS Treatment." The image above is in the beginning of my story. When I started to complain of back pain, I was told to stretch more before I exercised. (Back pain turned out to be crushed vertebrae caused by having Multiple Myeloma.)
Nando and Bjork were wonderful models. Bjork was a loving dog, and she just passed away at sixteen years old. As you can see, her great expression is helping me to spread the word about Multiple Myeloma through my presentation.
My next speaking event will be at the Middleburg Women's Networking Group luncheon at the Briar Patch Bed & Breakfast Inn this Wednesday, April 21, 2010. Still time to make reservations. The meeting is for women all over Northern Virginia.
If you know of a cancer support group or organization looking for an inspirational speaker, please let me know, or check my website for more information.
