Nadine you touched me with your story. In August of 2021, I had a severe heart attack, resulted in a triple bypass. My sweet ShihTzu Lucy barked incessantly, wouldn't stop...Im not really sure where I was drifting, the world became black and white on one side of the room, my side. Her side was in color. I'm not sure how long I just stood beside the bed, it was just after midnight. Her barking snapped me back to the present moment. I will never forget her saving me that nite. I lost my sweet girl a week ago. I actually fell asleep, got up and went to the hospital in the morning...where they told me I was still actively having the heart attack. I had been surviving for approximately 10 hours with just enough blood flow to keep my major organs and heart, brain alive. After the triple bypass, and healing, I am extremely lucky. I didn't have any side effects from the heart attack. Nothing. It's amazing to know I had 3 arteries totally blocked and I'm still here, doing great. But what I wanted to say to you...I had to do an emergency retirement....I also live on a SS check. We may not be able to send money...but we can help get the message about Asher House out to the public, who can tell others. And we can offer words of encouragement to Lee and everyone that keeps the rescue thriving. Be good to yourself 🤗

One of my dogs who passed told the animal communicator that the dogs in heaven all gather around to hear him tell his stories of our life together, that they see as admirable. Even though we had a special bond, it makes me want to be an even better person.

How can you feel like an outcast, Lee? OMG you are one of the most wonderful, loving and giving humans I know. You are perfectly beautiful in every way, IMHO. You and Matilda were meant to be. You are her angel, I swear to god.

Thank you so much for loving this girl. I’m 70 years old and have the same condition as Matilda caused by mini strokes. Mine is not as bad as hers. It’s a loss of balance. It breaks my heart watching her walk, but warms my heart so much to watch you love on her. We all have defects, Lee. Some are visible, some are not. Your big heart more than makes up for any defect you feel you have. I love your channel.

Nth times "like"!!!!!

I am sitting in my office with tears streaming down my face. The kind of crying that gives you an instant headache....just heavy sobs. I love this man and all he stands for. If I can do one thing in my life before I leave this earth it will be to visit this mans ranch and see what he has done for these pups. The dogs at Asher House know what love is and that just makes my heart smile. Thank you Lee. Thank you to your team. Thank you for sharing Tilda!

I have also got tears running down my face. As I posted on another Asher House clip, this man has a place in Heaven set aside if such a place exists. God has probably already plumped up the cushion on the throne next to his. Hopefully many years of kindness to these animals will pass before he gets to sit on it though. He is an inspiration and simply an amazing human being.

I watched this video today just when I needed it. I asked myself today, "why can't I just fit in any where". I sobbed uncontrollably because I just can't seem to find "my place" in this world. You made me feel okay. Matilda made me feel like I mattered!!! It's not just about a dog rescue, it's so much more. Thank you for what you do. Thank you for being REAL!!!!! Love you and your pack!!!!!

You are not alone with that feeling. I’ve felt this way my entire life and I’m still doing the work to believe I matter. Day by day we will get there and we will feel content not fitting in most places and situations. It’s ok to be different. I hope one day we both find a tribe that makes us feel like we belong. Animals and humans need to feel some sense of belonging according to Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs❤️im not sure if you have any kids or pets but if you do you absolutely matter and belong to them and vice versa.

I want to thank him so much for his kind words. I’ve always felt like an outcast and never understood. I’ve been depressed for quite some time. But I adopted a dog that looks almost identical to Matilda. She has shown me so much love!! She changed my life and showed me how to love myself. I’m hopeful for the future and cannot wait to spend life with my dog Xena ❤

You can tell that Matilda is happy even if her body won't cooperate. Lee's closing remarks are so touching. People that love deeply will always miss their dogs that passed away but what a fine life he has given them.
