Unfortunately, Dona was hospitalized a few days ago following complications from one of the medications she was taking.
Being very ill, she was unable to see her beloved canine companion, Patsy. Shelby’s mother knew that Dona was upset and told Shelby she should try to take Patsy in to see her. As we all know, animals are often the best medicine.
Fearing she wouldn’t make it through the hospital doors, Shelby wrapped Patsy up like a human baby and walked right into the hopsital.
She needed to be bottle fed and nursed to health, which Dona willingly did. Since then, their bond has been incredible.
It’s great to know that dogs are truly enriching peoples’ lives in the worst of times.
