Your “Daily Dose of Uplift” for February 15th:
The emergency staff at Rose Medical Center in Denver had an emotional sendoff for someone who has stuck by their side for the last eleven months.
Wynn, a service dog in training raised by Dr. Susan Ryan, has been comforting staff-members on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic in Denver.

When that day finally came, the staff decided to throw Wynn a party to thank him for his loyalty and invaluable emotional support.
