Christmas Eve 2010 is the day my dog, Jenny, and I saved a sixty five year old woman from a frosty death. After a long night of drinking I woke up this morning to the sound of Jenny barking up a storm in the front of my house where she was tied up to a post. So I rolled out of bed to go see what was so important that Jenny could not shut up. I think it should be said that Jenny is a very very quiet dog who hardly ever barks. As I stepped outside Jenny was barking towards my neighbor’s house, this house has been vacant for a week because my neighbors moved out and the house has yet to be sold. I looked over and saw a skinny old woman hunched over sitting on the stoop to the house with grocery bags all over the front law. I ran over and asked the lady if she was OK, to which she responded that she was out for a walk and just started feeling woozy and weak. She asked me if I could drive her the rest of the way to her house. Clearly this woman was in distress, so I got my mother and we helped the old woman into our house and laid her down on the couch. We asked her exactly what she was feeling and used the Internet to determine that she might be having a heart attack. We called her an ambulance and sent her to the hospital. Some eight hours later we got a call from the woman’s husband, he thanked us and also told us that she indeed was having a heart attack and if she had taken any longer to get to the hospital she would have required open-heart surgery. Because of Jenny this woman got to go home tonight fully recovered. That my friends, is a Christmas Eve miracle.
