Default Zodiac

Some may remember this from a few years back, but I came across this and thought I'd post it in case anyone cared.


Formerly known as Rhythmic Moves. Now known as Zodiac.


"He was septic and he coliced because he had stone dust in his belly,” said Robertson. “Because he was so emaciated when he got to us, his body had already gone beyond using muscle reserve and was actually using bone marrow reserve to survive. He also couldn’t even urinate on his own; he had to be catheterized."

Make sure you click on the link in the story to see the video. The people that volunteer at not only Days End Rehab, but at all of these type facilities are truly heroic in what they do for the few lucky ones that manage to be found and given a second chance.

Next time you win a bet, try to remember this story and donate to Days End or any number of places that never get enough credit.
