Where do I start? Tebow is a warrior like me and like many other animals in Speranza.
A short story about me: I have been battling cancer since 2017, now terminal. I came across Tebow, whose story moved me. He started his life in a somewhat difficult way. He was born dead and must be resurrected. The baby is bottle-fed until he is old enough to eat solids.
He did it because he fought to stay alive, like me, but Tebow has trust issues and no one wants him because he won’t stick around. Well, we decided to go see him because I felt in me we could help each other, and that’s exactly what happened. He came right to me and we’ve been together ever since.
It is 2 years old now and is my therapy dog. He supports me with anything I ask of him. He is the best friend anyone could ask for.
