Eating for a Dog

Not to be confused with eating like a dog. No really, we had the distinct privilege of eating for a dog today. It doesn't get any better than that.

We attended a fund raiser for a family friend. Dustin in his 30's and recently had a major health crisis due to juvenile diabetes. It is a miracle he's still with us. Mobility and vision issues plague him from this crisis. So proceeds from today's dinner go towards getting him a diabetic alert dog. So we did, in fact, eat for a dog. The spaghetti and meatballs were wonderful. The community support and presence of love far exceeded the flavor of the menu!

This was a simple thing we could do for a man with a complicated health issue. I have no doubt that we nourished our body and soul by partaking. Hopefully, we brought him much closer to canine companionship and his alert dog. He has met his dog, and will train with him in earnest. Just as earnestly as we ate for a dog today. We did the dog proud.
