Nobody thought this piglet would survive. But with the help of fruit punch, a baby calf, and an epic road trip, she was able to thrive. Sometimes all it takes is a little love to grow strong.

Arkansas woman texted father's number every day after he died, she got a response four years later10/27/2019 https://www.foxnews.com/us/arkansas-woman-texting-father-every-day-response A 23-year-old woman in Arkansas lost her father four years ago, but she continued to text his phone every day to update him about her life. She never got a response from the number, until this week. Like she did every day, Chastity Patterson, of Newport, texted her father’s number on Thursday, the night before the fourth anniversary of his death. “Hey Dad it’s ME,” she said. “Tomorrow is going to be a tough day again!” In her texts, Patterson recapped all of the highs and lows she had gone through over the past four years without her father by her side. She talked about how she beat cancer and has been taking better care of herself like she promised her father she would. She talked about how she finished college and graduated with honors and how she’d fallen in love and had her heart broken, “(you would have killed him),” she told her father. “I’m sorry I wasn’t there when you needed me the most, but one day we will [sic] our chance to watch that game!” she wrote in her latest text. This week, Patterson received a response from a man who had been receiving her daily messages these past four years. “My name is Brad and I lost my daughter in a car wreck August 2014 and your messages have kept me alive,” the response read. “When you text me, I know it’s a message from God.” “I have listened to you for years and I have watched you grow more than anyone,” Brad said. “I have wanted to text you back for years, but I didn’t want to break your heart.” He said he wished his daughter would have become the woman Patterson is. “I’m sorry you have to go through this but if it makes it any better, I am very proud of you! P.S. I think your father would be happy to know you bought another dog instead of having children.” Patterson posted the exchange to Facebook. “Today was my sign that everything is okay and I can let him rest!” It has since gone viral. In a later post, Patterson revealed that the loved one she'd lost, Jason Ligons, was not her biological father, but she called him dad. "Jason was not my 'biological' father, but blood could not make him any closer!" she said. "He never missed a school dance, prom, my games and YES he would give me long talks about my mouth and attitude. I had to introduce my boyfriends to him (If I was allowed to date) and he would act like a normal dad and give us the long talk," Patterson said. "I shared my messages for my friends and family to see that there is a God and it might take 4 years, but he shows up right on time!" she added.

Vietnam Marine veteran in New Mexico hospice care reunites with beloved dog one last time10/20/2019 A New Mexico veteran who served with the Marines in Vietnam said a final goodbye last week to the beloved dog he had to put up for adoption when he entered hospice care. John Vincent was reunited with Patch, a 5-year-old Yorkie, for one last time Thursday at the Hospice Center at the Raymond G. Murphy VA Medical Center in Albuquerque, according to reports. “Yeah, that’s me, that’s daddy,” Vincent said as Patch licked his face, the Albuquerque Journal reported. “Are you so happy to see me? I’m so happy to see you.” Vincent, 69, was admitted to the hospice center last week and was forced to take Patch to an Albuquerque Animal Welfare shelter because he had no family in New Mexico. Shelter officials said Vincent may not have much time left. He told Amy Neal, a social worker at the hospice center, that he had only one request—to see Patch one last time. “When the request came in, it was an immediate ‘absolutely,’ and let’s do whatever we can to get it done,” Animal Welfare director Danny Nevarez said, according to the paper. “It was as simple as getting Patch over here.” Vincent enlisted in the Marines for three years and served in Vietnam, the paper reported. He rode a Harley and would take Patch with him on rides. The dog had its own pair of tiny goggles, according to the paper. Animal Welfare posted photos of the reunion on its Facebook page Friday with a post that reported Vincent and Patch were so happy to see each and to say their goodbyes. “It was an honor to make this veteran's final wish come true,” the post continued. The shelter reported that Patch has found a new owner and will be leaving for a new home soon. Please click on the "Heart" below to recommend the discussion.
