A wonderful thing happened to me last week. First, our dog got sick, which wasn't wonderful, but since she's fine it's just a circumstance for this story. When I found out that the Angel (aka the dog) had a large tumor in her stomach, I fell apart. I left the doctor's office crying and tried to squeeze some words through the tears and into the cell phone where my husband, who was at work, was waiting for the report. I was a wreck. Then, from seemingly out of nowhere, a woman wrapped her arms around me and hugged me. She patted me on the back and didn't say anything right away. I soon came up for some air, we shared our dog tales, she hugged me again and then she turned to leave.
I can't explain how much she helped me in that moment. I only hope that in times of need that I can be that kind and compassionate.
Perhaps someday I'll have the ability to thank her. For now, I commend her spirit and pass on her good will.
FYI - Hush is doing faaaabbbbuulously!
