when you look at Jazzy now, because you would never guess the horrible situation she was rescued from and the this little dog had.
Jazzy was taken from her owners, who were immediately with animal cruelty. Why? Because neighbors had seeing little Jazzyy moving around her back yard with two broken front legs. Her owners, who were supposed to her most, did absolutely nothing about it. They had never sought any kind of for poor Jazzy. Nobody knew how it and it was believed that she was hit by a car, or that someone had done this to her.
Jazzy’s cruel owners didn’t take her to the veterinarian, her condition went from bad to worse. Over time her front right leg loosely, and her left leg was permanently bent at a sharp angle. The pain must have been astonishing. She moved around like a baby seal. She needed .
In a Los Angeles animal shelter, things got even . The shelter could not provide the costly operations that could be to restore Jazzy’s ability to and lead a normal life, and it was impossible to find a family who would be able to a dog in this condition. The difficult was made to euthanize（使安乐死）sweet Jazzy.
All was lost. Then a miracle happened. A volunteer from Dogs Without Borders saw Jazzy. Jazzy was pulled out of the and rescuers got busy working on a plan to ensure that Jazzy would get treatment. For months, Dogs Without Borders cared for Jazzy, while enough money for her operations. Donations came in. Finally in December 2013 the money was enough and it was time to get her operations ! By the spring of 2014, Jazzy had fully recovered.

I am a team leader in an insurance company. We are going through a lot of changes right now, which is 36 much stress for all of us.
A few weeks ago I was having a day so 37 that I even doubted if I had the ability to do this challenging work, and was about ready to change to a less stressful job 38 . Something happened that day to change my way of 39 and I am so appreciative of this young lady. I want to let her know that the small act 40 .
On the top of my cubicle (工作隔间) I have a small collection of lighthouses (灯塔) to let people know where I am sitting 41 my team members have to find me for emergencies.
That day I came into the office and was about to get the day 42 when Crystal came over. I asked if she needed anything. And she said, “I 43 you something.” I looked at her with a 44 look and said, “Well, thank you, but why 45 you buy me anything?” I had never spoke to this young lady 46 . She said, “Every day I stand up and look across the 47 and see your lighthouses. Then I feel I am not alone and I encourage myself that there are always 48 things in life. I saw this on the way to work and thought 49 would like it. I wish it would have the same 50 as your lighthouses do.” In her hand she had a small globe with a lighthouse and a ship on it. I gave her a hug and 51 her. I don’t think she knows how much that small act of 52 changed my day: I remained 53 the rest of the day.
For anyone that reads this, I hope you remember, no matter what the 54 is, you could change someone’s day, 55 even his views on life.
