this reminds me of a story about my mom.
My brother recently adopted a rat terrier, and after having it for a day noticed that he was allergic, so they tried to find it a good home. My mom has always been a dog lover, and volunteered at the humane society for many years. So when she heard about the dog needing a home, she was quick to offer her help.
She already had 2 dogs (a boxer, and a mixed breed) but they are getting old, and she knows it wont be long before they pass on.
The rat terrier named, Jack, and my mom bonded right away. She would do anything for that dog. He is soooo spoiled. A week after having Jack, my mom had a stroke, which left her paralyzed on her right side. She was in the hospital for 4 weeks before they admitted her to the rehab section of the hospital.
Everyday she would ask about Jack. So we started asking the nurses if we could bring Jack up or wheel her down to the entrance so she could see him outside.
Finally a nurse gave in and let him come up to her room, and he stayed up there almost all day.
My mom was the happiest I have seen her in a long time. Who says dogs can't heal?
