One thing 32 couldnt get used to was the clouds of cigarette smoke 33 filled the air and our lungs. It used to be the same for me in my home ar

8、ea in the United States. 34 the noise was definitely a relatively new experience.

We dont have a lot of money left over at the end of the month.Fundraising started off with the help of family donations, but we had a long way to go. Then one day there was a knock at the door. I went to answer it; a stranger stood

14、 there holding the newspaper article about Dale in her hand. She introduced herself as June and told me that her daughters dog had warned her of a cancer she never knew she had, probably saving her life.

15、 us $100! We never expected such caring and kindness from a complete stranger.Dale had been feeling the world didnt care, but this help renewed his faith. The next thing that happened was that Dale emailed local vets, asking for care for our puppy. We received a response from Dr. Noonan, who has sin

16、ce provided Nevaehs care for free. The staff and the vet are the most loving, caring people we have met. They even helped us find a local trainer who cut the training costs by more than half. If it werent for such amazing people, Dale probably would have become a total recluse, feeling he could neve

22、edical problem.
