And although Batman was only given a prognosis of 10 months to live after the successful operation, he stayed with his family for another year and a half, cancer free.\u00a0 In the end it was pneumonia that he was not able to beat.<\/p>\n
University of Minnesota researcher John Ohlfest called the dog, “a champion for science, but an inspiration for all dogs and humans alike.”<\/p>\n
We agree.<\/p>\n
