"OSCAR The Cat From R.I." Makes World News On 7/26/07
Girls I had to ask if anyone watched the World News last night!! We have a very special cat here in a nursing home in Rhode Island, there are several cats there but OSCAR is the star. For those of you that missed this 'Little Sweetie-Pie', he wonders the halls of the home and visits the patrons there. He lays on the bed with the people who are going to expire in 2-4 hours and keeps them company!! Now if it was once or twice I would say "Yeah Right", but Oscar has layed on the beds of 25 people that would have otherwise died alone. All of the patrons love his visits and again they do not die alone.
He has been reported to the national registers of Hospice, the Medical Journal and another agency of importance which name has escaped me at the moment. Who cares how he does this, whether it is his natural instinct or hormone release, the fact that he provides comfort amazes me. Now we all know what our animals provide for us when we are depressed or ill. My 'Momma's Boy' comes whenever I am sad or crying and now that hubby is ill, he bonds much more with him ('course Ed eats up Mookie's love-love).
Just thought I would share another inspirational animal story with my friends!!
OSCAR from Rhode Island is helping do some of God's work!!! Thank you Oscar for all of the wonderfull people that would have had to die alone!!! You are certainly our gift!!
Waiting For A Mircale....and commanding one soon>>Believe51
