Donny, an 11 year-old boy, is playing with a ball. The ball goes into the
street, and Donny runs for the ball. A car hits Donny. An ambulance takes
Donny to the hospital. The doctors at the hospital tell Donny’s parents, “Donny
is in a state of unconsciousness. He might wake up tomorrow, he might wake up
next week, or he might never wake up.” Every day Donny’s parents visit him at
the hospital. They sit next to Donny’s bed and talk to him, but Donny never
responds. One day Donny’s father says, “Wake up, Donny. Wake up and come
home. Come home and play with Rusty.” Rusty is Donny’s dog. When Donny’s
father says “Rusty”, Donny moves his arm. “Rusty!” Donny’s father says again.
Again, Donny moves his arm. Donny’s parents have an idea. They tell the
nurses, “We want to bring Donny’s dog to the hospital.” The nurse says, “That’s
very unusual, but, yes, it’s OK.”
The next day, Donny’s parents bring Rusty to the hospital. When they put
her on Donny’s bed, Donny opens his eyes and hugs her! After that, Donny’s
parents bring Rusty to the hospital every day. One day, Rusty jumps on Donny’s
bed and scratches Donny’s arm. Donny says his first words: “Bad dog!” After
seven weeks, Donny is well. He leaves the hospital and goes home.
