In a touching act of kindness, a nurse at Northside Hospital Gwinnett went out of her way to help a dying patient find a new home for her dog. The nurse, Kim Still, had become close with the old woman, who was sick with cancer and didn’t have any family or children to take care of her beloved Chihuahua, Jax.
As the patient’s condition got worse, her main worry was what would happen to Jax. Their family told Kim to take Jax to a shelter since they didn’t have any family who could take him in. Kim knew, though, that shelters often can’t find homes for dogs, so some of them have to be put down.
The patient’s love for Jax made Kim want to adopt the dog herself. She couldn’t stand the thought of killing Jax. Kim’s kindness made the patient feel better, and she died peacefully, knowing that Jax was in good hands
