Tabby was an old dog, about 14 years old. What's more, she was blind and deaf. Tabby's chances at adoption seemed 4 at best. After all, we didn't have may adopters coming in5about her. We had all thought that Tabby would 6 the rest of her life at the shelter.
One day a woman named Loretta came to the shelter. Her son, Gary, had 7 Tabby's picture and stories on the shelter's website. They were 8 in meeting her! It was the only 9 we ever received about Tabby. What could a young child 10 see in a 14-year-old dog who was both blind and deaf? Most boys would want a dog who could grow with him and 11 through grassy fields on summer days. Tabby would 12 be able to do that. But after meeting her, Loretta and Gary decided that she was the right dog for their family. They adopted Tabby!
If Tabby's story had simply ended with her 13 adoption, it would still have been something very 14indeed. However, it was what happened after her adoption that some might label as "magical".

They became so "intune" with one another that Tabby began to telegraph Gary's seizures 17 they occurred, giving his family warning that one was about to strike. What's more, Gary seemed to be having fewer and fewer seizures since Tabby's 18.
How could it be? Nobody could explain 19 Tabby did it. But those of us who were 20enough to know her and her family had seen a real miracle(奇迹), the kind that has its roots in love.
