The Journey to Recovery
Until very recently, the retired man was struggling to shake off severe health issues that had him shunned from society. In spite of the support and love from medical professionals, friends & family — he was feeling pretty down on himself. There was no doubt something essential and special had gone from his life —the furry companion that has been with him for as far back as he could remember.
As the man’s family saw how this separation was affecting him mentally and physically, they intervened. And they managed to get the two of them together where it all began in a reunion so heartfelt, you’ll find their tales incredibly moving.
The Moment of Reunion

As if on cue, the energy changed in an instant when his dog bounded through the front door: a hectic and happy puppy. Looking at one another, they felt the same flood of emotion rush over them. The man could not have been more happy to see his friend as he prepared to give him a hug.
That one simple act ignited something quite wonderful. He started to get some of his strength back as well, thanks in part the willpower that he no longer had to do without. He found a purpose inside himself that he thought was long gone; every time with his dog reconnected him to meaning.

However, the man recovered faster because of his dog — something he could consider a real lifesaver in this case. They are living proof that love is a far greater motivator of healing than anything else.
