About Me
Hello, my name is Kokomo, the bipawd bullie. I was born deaf and found as a stray in Miami about 5 years ago. After being bounced around from foster home to foster home, I found my way to my forever mommy. 2.5 years ago, I started limping and we found that I had osteosarcoma in my right distal radius (front leg/wrist area). After amputation and chemo, I was in remission for 2 years and 3 months. Unfortunately, 3 months ago, I fractured my left femur (back leg) and we discovered my osteosarcoma was back. My mom had to make a really hard decision of either putting me to sleep or amputating my second leg, and in the end, she chose the second amputation. We restarted chemo, but after 2 cycles of Carboplatin, my chest x-ray now showed a lung metastasis. We have stopped Carboplatin and now I am on Palladia. Please follow our journey as we battle this horrible disease.
