Great stories....animals are so healing. I sure wish your Dad's baby could stay right there in his room with him! That's so sweet that you're going to bring Sparkles to visit. I can't stand being away from my babies, so I can only imagine what your Dad is going through. And I'm sure Sparkles misses his Daddy so much!
So glad the security guard was able to rescue the stray - they can be so tough to catch when they're scared like that, so I'm really glad the little dog was able to go to him. Happy story
