A article in The Washington Post  was published, Heal! The Power of Pets. It was a heart-warming story about a group of women who created a non-profit organization called Critters for the Cure. The article touched briefly on each woman and her battle with cancer, as well as how their pets made the process better.

These incredible women created this organization to help others like them. They offer to pay vet bills to those in need because they understand how important it is to have a pet.  In the article, the women were gathered together to produce a calendar. They hoped to raise money in order to support other women battling cancer, as well as to bring awareness to the importance of having pets at such a time. 

It really made you feel like having an pet is very important to those who may be ill. However, I believe it is just as important to have an animal, sick or not, in your life everyday. They really do make a difference. The article just proves my point, pets are more than just pets. They make a daily impact on people. The impact  created is so great it helps their owners overcome huge obstacles.   

Anyway, the semester is almost over and this project is pretty much halfway done! I am still in the process of finding my fourth module for the multimedia package. However, I finally got into contact with a police officer that has a trained dog that he works with everyday! He just has to approve meeting with me with his higher authorities. So hopefully that can work out for my last module! I’m pretty excited to go and meet him actually!
