Christmas arrived early for one Rome resident in New York who, falling ill, was separated from his four-legged best friend, Boomer—but they were reunited thanks to the kindness of a local nurse who went beyond the call of duty.
The ailing 60-year-old, John Burley, had been taken to the hospital just before Thanksgiving. Unable to care for his elderly dog, Boomer was taken to the Rome Humane Society, leaving his human owner distraught.
