Celebrate with me! My name change is finally legal. Tanya Packer is now my pen name. I am rewriting my story. I am beginning again. I am claiming my power. I am healing. I am NOT my past. Today is my first day of my new story!

Oh my sweet boy. Who is going to comfort me through the long nights when you're gone? Theo update, my baby is starting 2 show signs of slowing down. He's still responding to meds & we are in ongoing consultation with the vet to do what is best 4 Theo. He was given 4 months 2 live & we are at 2

In a world filled with hate, the world needs Rainbow Dragon and friends! Growing up as a spicy dragon (AuDHD), I needed Rainbow. Encourage movement and bonding as your little dragons and little alicorns zoom, flap, and swish along with Rainbow Dragon and Ally Alicorn! mybook.to/AllyAlicorn

Lol Theo is such a mommy's boy and still trying to ride around on my shoulders. He's slowing down a bit, but still responding to his meds.

My handsome furbaby wants every one to know that they should buy my book. He takes his medicine well, so for the most part he's comfortable. We are monitoring him closely with the vets help. Love you Theo.

I am so grateful for the love and support I've had this week. I couldn't do it without. My big bear is a pro. I couldn't have done today without Ryk.

My handsome furbaby wants every one to know that they should buy my book. This is an old picture... he was having a bit of rough day today and just wanted to sleep. He takes his medicine well, so for the most part he's comfortable. Love you Theo.

Theo is presumed to have: Feline Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM). We will find out after we see the cardiologist. I am giving huge thanks for all your 💜 and prayers that helped him fight through this.

Poor Felix cried all night looking for his brother! That was the first time in 7 years they've ever been apart. Waiting to hear from the vet if Theo made it through the night ..... My beautiful furbaby is only 7!

It's been a year from hell. It's been a year of healing & new boundaries. It's been a year of choosing me. It's been a year of finding my voice. It's been a year of finding my truth. I am so happy 2 bring in this new moon, blood moon, & eclipse by cleansing, blessing both the house and myself.
