When my mom was in the ICU, Miles the therapy dog stopped by for a visit. I told his owner that my mom would love to have a visit with Miles, but that she wouldn't be able to appreciate his company at the moment. Miles's owner told me that she understood, and asked if I'd like to visit with Miles. She explained that visitors sometimes needed a visit too.
Miles was calm and peaceful. My mom would have loved to have met him.
I sometimes wish that Miles would stop by and spend some time with me again. I really do need a visit from a therapy dog.
