Jelly from Katrina

I went to New Orleans in the aftermath of Katrina to try to help. The day I got there the second storm Rita was about to hit. We evacuated the evacuation centers and I was sent off with 5 incredibly emaciated dogs. They had all been rescued that day and even though they were truly starving, they would not eat unless you would sit with them. They missed people more than food! I found good homes for the other 4 and over the next year I nursed Jelly back to health. Now he rules the house and my heart!
