This is a long one, so bare with us....
To the Bippity Boppity Bark family, my wife was diagnosed w/stage 2 breast cancer at the beginning of August. This Past couple months have been a roller coaster of Dr. Appointments, emotions, zapped energy, while trying to maintain her passion for BBB. She loves what she does. She had her 1st Treatment on August 27th and my superwoman wife was wiped. She has a shot the day after the treatment and has to be on medication durin those weeks that takes it out of her. It takes about 7-10 days to recover after treatment day. These treatments are every 21 days. She recently went for her 2nd treatment September 17th, with 4 more to go beforre she starts Stage 2. Her 3rd and 4th are sheduled at the beginning and end of October. Its gonna be a rough holiday season for us with her 5th treatment around Thanksgiving and her 6th and last treatment of Stage 1 sheduled for the 10th of December.
We dont have a date scheduled for the start of Stage 2. My wife wants to be able to fit everyone in but its impossible. I witnessed the stress it has added between the 1st and 2nd treatment. She currently has a weight limit and her Dr. told us she MUST set aside as much stress as possible. Unfortunately she will have to limit herself at the minimum 6 months to a year. We dont want to loose any of our BBB family, but we have to scale down. Please understand, Tabitha's health has to come first. Unfortunately this will have to include any of our furry friends over her weight limit, and scheduling will have to be done in advance, she can not take call-ins anymore.
We will continue to offer updates when we can because we have faith that she will be back in full force in mid to late 2025.
We also provide updates on her Obsessed Originals . For those that dont know, Tabitha is very creative, an artist is what I call her. Please have a look. Right now this is her positive outlet. Maybe show her some love and support over there. I appreciate everyone in advance for any prayers and support you have for my wife. We all know she is an Amazing Person, She is also an amazing Mother and Wife and is trying to balance us all. She loves all of you so very much, trust me I know, I hear about everyone, lol.
Sincerely, Tabitha's Husband, Travis
