In your experience, does it seem like the people with the least are the quickest to give and help others?

It sure seems like it to me. I put out an emergency plea on Facebook for an emergency inhaler for Dakota. She’s just going down hill so fast. All last night and this morning she’s just pacing and pacing (and peeing and pooping….). When we got up the first thing we noticed is she’s having a really hard time breathing. She was also having what looked like a panic attack, which is how anyone would feel who couldn’t breath.
I finally found a vet who’d answer the phone on a Sunday after Christmas and asked if it would be OK to give her some abuterol (if I could find some.) He said it would be OK.
So I threw out the plea and and I ran over to the house of the person who responded first—and several people did respond. The house was an unkempt rental (probably.) There were old cars in the yard, screens falling out, and other signs of poverty. The lady who answered the door was in a bathrobe and she obviously had some health issues her self. She was very poor and had almost nothing herself, but she handed that rescue inhaler over without a second thought. She was almost crying, hoping Dakota would be OK.
I pressed $20 on her. She said, “No, no.”
I said, “Yes, yes!” and gave her another hug and she accepted it.
I think it’s working…..it’s not easy giving a dog a rescue inhaler treatment. I just sprayed it at her nose a couple of times over the course of a couple of minutes.
This isn’t an isolated experience for me, either.
I think most people in the world are just awesome.
