Speechless Sunday ~ Dogs Are Family

I found this story today, and thought I would share it, as it tells me a picture is worth a thousand words.

Family Dog

This photo is of a dying homeless man's last wish was to see his dog one more time. Yurtie, a female dog used to live with Cedar Rapids 57 year old Kelvin Mc Clain in his car.

Unfortunately, Kevin became ill with lung cancer. Hospice employees say it was the most touching moment ever. And it was their last time together. Kevin died shortly after he met the dog. Yurtie now lives with a new family.

On a day when famed Penn State Coach Joe Paterno succumbed also to lung cancer let us remember to be nice to everyone while we are alive and in the end it is all about love.
